Anouchka's ideas NĀ° : SM-021

Anouchka had spotted the babywearing wrap scrap in my inventory, which she ultimately wanted for a different bag model that I had presented, but I didn't have enough of it. She was brimming with ideas and desires, and we had lengthy discussions about her various projects to determine what would be the best fit. I took the time to describe the different possible complementary materials, etc.

In the end, we opted for a giant version of the model I had previously made in a regular size, and I managed to find a larger piece of the fabric she had always been drawn to (a true favorite). I built an initial prototype to confirm the size (and I was right; it needed to be enlarged further to accommodate her request to carry A4 documents), and then the final version.

Upon receipt, satisfaction was achieved:

Thank you so much, it's perfect. [...] It's so soft, so cozy, and really fantastic. Thank you!

Marie's babywearing wrap

I searched for this wrap for a long time, and I didn't want to part with it.This leather jacket was the first luxury piece of clothing I had, for my 18th birthday. However, I could no longer use either of them for their original purpose. So, I decided to transform them into objects that would be useful to me and would remind me of the beautiful memories they had stored.

Common questions

What if I have no idea what model I want?

No worries! I donā€™t lack imaginationā€”or experience...
I guide you with questions and will suggest several visual directions (photos, videos, mockups).

Can I transform the clothes of a loved one who has passed away, as part of grieving?

Yes, and these are among the most deeply moving projects I get to work on.

Your father's jacket, your grandmother's coat, the jumper you can't bring yourself to give away because it still smells a little like her... These fabrics carry something irreplaceable. Transforming them into an everyday object means giving them life again without erasing them, and for many people, this is part of the grieving process itself: the memory is no longer folded away in a drawer, it's worn, or displayed.

I approach these projects with particular care: we take time to talk about the person, the story behind the fabric, what you want to preserve and how. The finished piece isn't just a bag ā€” it's an object that continues to bear witness.

And if several family members each want a keepsake made from the same garment? That's possible too. One piece of fabric can give birth to several different pieces, for several different people. We look at what the material can offer, together, without wasting any of it.

What if my fabric is damaged?

Thatā€™s common, and most of the time itā€™s not a problem.
We select the usable areas and I complete with premium materials to ensure strength and durability.
