I’ve always loved creating items with my hands.  I remember doing simple arts and crafts projects in kindergarten, simple items like stuffed toy carrots and furry toy chicks. // Later on when I developed an understanding of the human body figure I started experimenting with patternmaking. Since I have been actively sewing clothing and accessories. I take pride in my products. as they sometimes and be highly time consuming. By far my favorite projects are burlesque costumes and steel boned corsets.

I also do jewelry and other accessories, such as hats and bags. While living in Helsinki I sold my bag and jewelry collection called “sweetheart Couture”. The theme was vintage, feminine and flirty. The bags were made out of old vintage lingerie from 1910s-1960s. Unfortunately I currently don’t hold any images of these products. The Jewelry was custom-made feather and class diamond hairpieces, broaches and earrings (specializing a large gauge tunnels, that were specially custom made for each customer).
