Coming Soon Spring 2008:
As spring nears and the Inman Park Festival approaches,keep a look out for my new line of silk scarves and more fun POOPADOOP KIDS accessories.
Inspired by my daughter Josie, I created a line of hair accesories for babies and kids called Poopadoop Kids no slip hair clips. Made from felt and focusing on bright color and funky designs these crazy clips match everything and nothing.





Hand Painted Silk Scarf
"Lady Bugs" 2007



One of my true passions in textiles art is silk painting. Here are a few images of the scarves in the process of being created.I freehand designs using a resist paste and later come in with bold color hand painting the scarves accenting the designs.

My summer collection for 2006 featured folk art inspired handbags created from 100% recycled materials. I created these fun and funky bags using vintage fabrics, heirloom buttons, and even reclaimed wood from demode staircases for the handles.
