Emeline's babywearing wrap N° : SM-032

Emeline wanted a wallet made from a coupon for which she already had other plans, with very specific ideas about the colors of the complementary fabrics and a desire to use the most noble materials possible.

So, I found an incredibly charming vintage French-made zipper with a cotton ribbon and a coin slider (in francs!) whose color matched perfectly with her scrap.
For the interior and lining, beautiful poplin and padding, both 100% organic cotton, and a washable plastic-free structure.

A little gem that turns heads:

The wallet is perfect; it's just as I wanted, thank you very much. [...] Everyone finds it beautiful, and it creates a small sensation when they notice that it matches the babywearing wrap.

In order to better organize her bag, Élodie was looking for a wallet, and I suggested the Embarq'Tout which seemed to perfectly meet her needs.

This is the story of a pair of snakeskin boots that had been sitting bored in its cardboard box for several years... and of how it transformed in a beautiful and useful bag that I enjoy everyday.

Common questions

What's the difference between 'Essentials' and fully bespoke?

Both options use your fabric, benefit from the same care, and come with the same level of support. The difference is the starting point.

The Essentials
These are tried-and-tested pre-designed models (crossbody, coin purse, tote, slippers...) that I personalise with your materials. The silhouette is set; you choose the textiles, colours, and finishes. Perfect if you don't have a specific shape in mind yet, or if you want to keep a tighter rein on your budget. The result is still unique, because your fabrics are.

Fully bespoke
Everything is open: the shape, size, carry style, pockets, materials, threads, hardware... You can come with an existing pattern, a sketch, an inspiration photo, or just a vague idea to explore together. It's the most open-ended option, and therefore the most personal.

In both cases, we start with a discovery call so I can understand your fabric, your needs, and your vision. And in both cases, almost anything is possible.

What kinds of objects can you create, beyond bags and wallets?

Probably more than you'd imagine!

Here's what I can make from your sentimental fabrics:

Leather goods: backpack, crossbody, belt bag, handbag, sling bag, travel bag, tote, clutch, pouch, coin purse, wallet...

Accessories: pocket mirror (Ocebo'), babywearing mirror (Coucou Hibou), tie...

Textile/clothing: bomber jacket (child or adult), low slippers or ankle booties (sizes EU 25 to 47)...

Textile art: Kinusaiga panel, a Japanese craft technique, very graphic, which transforms your fabrics into a framed wall piece.

If you have an idea that's not on this list, bring it up anyway. I haven't yet met a request I couldn't find some way to approach. And if I genuinely can't make it work, I'll tell you honestly from our very first conversation.

"I’m afraid to cut into a sentimental fabric. What if I regret it?"

It’s natural to feel that hesitation. We work together to honor your story.
Each step is validated (photos, video call), and nothing is irreversible until you give the green light.
