I have always sought to offer different creations to enhance your sentimental fabrics and move away from the eternal bags, slippers, and jackets.

I have always sought to offer different creations to enhance your sentimental fabrics and move away from the eternal bags, slippers, and jackets.

So when Vanessa was charmed by my beret proposal, I was delighted!

A 100% organic cotton interlock and 100% wool interlock complement the organic cotton and linen certified by Europe in the babywearing wrap coupon, for a soft, warm, and stylish headpiece.

The size is perfect, it's very beautiful. It's so soft, I love it.

Silvia's vision

I was so honored to be able to make a custom shoulder bag for one of my favorite babywearing brands' spokesmodel, Silvia. From choosing fabrics and hardware to the very last stitch, we worked hand in hand and I took incredible pleasure in crafting this beautiful piece, one of my finest ones to date.

Marion's favorite

At the end of 2023, I offered to make Marion a custom piece using a fabric she had admired in my shop to thank her for graciously allowing me to test her coaching services. A piece that fits her like a glove and perfectly embodies her style and personality.

Clémence initially contacted me to transform her favorite babywearing wrap into a skirt, a project that was ultimately set aside in favor of a bomber jacket.

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.

Is there a right time to start, or can I take as long as I need?

There's no good or bad time, only your own.

For a babywearing wrap, it can be transformed as soon as babywearing ends, or much later, once you've missed it enough to want to see it in a new form. For a loved one's clothing, there's no rush either: some people contact me a few weeks after a bereavement, others several years later. Take whatever time you need, I'll be here when you're ready.

Are technical fabrics (sport, dance, running) as sturdy as a classic fabric once transformed?

It depends on the fabric, but in most cases, yes. The stretch and fineness of some of these materials (lycra, softshell or technical jersey, for example) are actually an asset for kinusaiga panels, and conversely, they're compensated for very well in leatherwork with reinforcements (interfacing, lining), just like any other delicate textile. These fabrics also tend to have excellent resistance to abrasion and friction, which is a real plus for bags and wallets.

We talk it through together during the discovery call.
