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.

Common questions

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.

"What if I’m disappointed? / I’ve had a bad experience before"
Every project is approved step by step with a detailed quote, photos, and regular updates.
Nothing is started without your agreement, ensuring a result that meets your expectations.
Do you offer support for a wedding, before, during or after the ceremony?

Yes, a wedding is a moment I can support at several stages.

Before or during the ceremony, we can create a fashion or décor piece carrying the presence of an absent or deceased parent, or matching pieces where each partner wears a little of the other's fabric. Afterwards, the dress or suit can become a bag, a wallet or, if you'd rather have something to display than to wear, a kinusaiga panel: the wedding fabrics take the shape of a wall piece, to keep on display in your home rather than folded away in a garment bag.
