A Feature via AkaCinders

A while back I had the pleasure of meeting Cinders via Twitter and discovered her lovely shops filled with beautiful eco-felt jewelry and the coolest items such as aprons, bags and more made from vintage and retro fabrics. Cinders is super talented and a real nice person. You can find her unique jewelry in her shops akaCINDERS and From Cinders. Her cool sewn creations can be found at Poppy's Garden Gate.

And if you head over to her blog you a can see a sweet feature, Buyer's Paradise- Pesky Cat Designs, she posted about my shop. Thanks Cinders!

The Pesky Cat's Day Dream

Katzenhohle by Dornroeschen Filzunikate I recently came across this incredible cat bed made by German artist Dornroeschen Filzunikate. This beautiful piece of functional art called a Katzenhohle , cat cave, is handmade of felted wool. It's definitely the most unique cat bed I have ever seen. It would bring a bit of nature into my urban NYC home. I think my Anni would love a cat cave although her favorite spots right now are the pillow behind my head in bed, a straw basket that was meant to store magazines and a storage box made from fabric that becomes a hammock when she sleeps in it.

Music Inspired

Pink Floyd Bowie Red Hot Chili Peppers Hand-painted hazmat suit with images from Pink Floyd The Wall. This is still a work in progress. Plan to wear to a Halloween party this year. Below shows back of suit. Closet door painted by me as a teenager around 1980. Music and art has always been a big part of my life. In the past year I have added a music-inspired collection of bags to my shop. The appliques are hand-cut and then machine stitched to the bag. No two bags are ever exactly alike. One-of-a-kind and all handmade by me in my studio from start to finish. See the entire collection here.
