Bringing some more retro whimsy with this up-cycled cami. The lighting wasn’t great this afternoon and doesn’t show the true yellow colour of the linen on the back. This will be in the shop on Thursday. It’s cute but I will rework the shape for the next one…….

We hosted a team workshop last weekend on Nina’s last day and it was pure joy. Fancy giving it a go DM for more info ❤️
We also did some Cyanotype letter writing in store, for anyone looking for slightly different way to write a letter or create a personalised gift. You can frame it or send it to a loved one or friend or create your own patch with your own artwork and sew onto a garment.
