When I create, I upcycle almost entirely from second hand materials that would have ended up as refuge. I do this to help reverse the belief that being wasteful is acceptable in our "disposable society", to help reduce the carbon footprint, to honor the history of workers who took pride in working hard & in their craft, & to inspire & spread positivity & happiness through creativity. Beauty can come from anywhere & anything. Re: Fur: I personally could never harm any animal & I don't buy new fur. The fur I use on my projects, handbags, boot cuffs, etc... is from vintage coats that were either beyond my tailoring repair knowledge or were out of style. For whatever reason (food or profit) that their fur was harvested, to refuse to use the fur afterwards would be a disrespect to the animal and nature as a whole. Therefore, the use and enjoyment of it should serve as a reminder to appreciate, remember, and honor the sacrifices made for us.

Item arrived as described in good condition and appearance, at an agreed upon price & value; and manufacturer quality as expected. Item’s appearance was as photographed in the listing, and item was shipped in a white/manila type envelope… envelope appeared a bit worn but did hold up in USPS shipping while on its journey, bubble-wrap helped item in transit. Thanks. Enjoy the Fall season! 🍁🍁
