🌈 Hand-painted custom wearable art with a mission to give back.

When we decided to elope, I knew I still wanted to make a few things for our special day. 🤎

As much as I loved the idea of making my own wedding dress, I decided to take that pressure off myself and focus on some of the smaller details instead.

I made my veil, flowers, dog collars, and cake topper, adding a little bit of my creativity to our day. It was so special getting to make things that felt personal to us without taking on the huge project of making an entire dress.

A little look at the handmade details from 10.26.26. ✨

If you missed my last solo exhibit (or want to see it again!) come see me in downtown Carrboro this Friday.

I went into Moxy Fox Salon for a haircut on and left with a new place to hang my art. A selection of my work is now up in the salon, and I’ll be there for the 2nd Friday Art Walk this Friday from 6–8 PM.

Come see the work, have a glass of w**e with me, and wander around downtown Carrboro.

Fabric has been my material my whole life. I started my first fashion design business at 10.
I value the tactile qualities of textiles and appreciate the visible evidence of handmade labor. My work emerges from my lineage. My grandmother taught me to sew, and her mother, an immigrant from Poland, worked a loom in upstate New York. My practice centers on Polish folk traditions and the craft passed down through women by thread and repetition, connecting generations. The pieces in Rewoven are made from salvaged and recycled textiles; materials already on a journey, now held by someone else.

I wanted to create something people could bring their own memories to. The restraint is intentional: limited colors, specific subjects, reclaimed materials. Every piece uses textiles that have already been lived in, which felt honest for work about what we carry and what we leave behind.

Progress shot of what may be my last piece I create for my show in June(!!!). I’ve worked with fabric my whole life, from fashion design to large-scale installations to intimate pieces from salvaged cloth and handmade paper. Rewoven explores what inheritance means; what stories fabric can hold, and what we carry from our lineage. By working with lived materials, the exhibit invites viewers to reflect on what endures and what is left behind.

I’m making progress on this new piece this week.
Still figuring out where it’s going and what I’m going to name it, but i keep coming back to the title What We Mend.
