i give things second lives
POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
i’m honestly at a loss for words and struggling to come to terms with the reality of the situation, but my dad has been diagnosed with stage IV metastatic prostate cancer 

thanks to our broken medical system and lack of good health insurance, it has been very hard to get ahold of the medication needed to slow down the spread of the cancer as well as getting scheduled for the proper scan(s) to know how far it has spread. we are forced to hope for the best while preparing for the worst, so i made a gofundme (link in bio) to ease the financial burden and cover the costs. 

my dad has always done everything within his power to be the best father he can possibly be, regardless of the obstacles, so words can’t even begin to express how grateful i am to be his only child. our book has always been “love you forever” and life is truly imitating art by having me take care of him in all the ways he has taken care of me. anyways i can’t stop crying and i don’t know what else to say, so thank you in advance for sharing/donating/sending your love, it is much needed and greatly appreciated ❣️

i’ll love you forever
i’ll like you for always
as long as i’m living
my baby you’ll be

i got that dawg in me 🦴🐕 

*SET IS SOLD*
what was once an old, stained @sugarfiresmokehouse hoodie and a couple yards of thrifted fabric, is now a #1of1 set made entirely by yours truly!!

hoodie was technically remade/upcycled, while the bucket hat was made completely from scratch. both are finished with a (very special and as old as me) V.S. tag

even though this exact set isn’t for sale, i’m almost always down for similar commissions 😇 just let me knowww

final flex 💪😤💯💸

*BOTH SOLD*
i designed and constructed both these pieces from “scratch” (aka upcycled/deconstructed painter’s pants)

finished vest includes eight (YES 8️⃣) fully-/multi-functional pockets (three of them zippered), a zipper and original-button closure on the front, original belt-loops, six handmade loops, handmade button-closure loops on both sides to adjust the overall fit of the piece, and a V.S. tag on the back

bucket hat includes a serged, reversible brim for a simple yet distressed look, highlighting the paint and wear on the fabric, and is finished with a violet star logo tag

thanks @madonna for my middle name ⭐️

🙌 FOR SALE OR COMMISSION 🙌

crochet star halter top by yours truly! i followed a youtube video to get it started, then figured out the rest myself so it would fit properly. can technically be tied different ways as well as to your belt loops since i elongated the bottom ties. could also be considered a nod to 🪴 due to the color of the #upcycled yarn i chose. fun piece, happy to make more, just lemme know!

proud to say i defeated one of the biggest bosses when it comes to sewing!! woohoo

i made this babydoll dress from scratch out of some scrap fabric <3 wearing it makes me feel like a ballerina again

for sale i guess 🤷‍♀️ ngl i hate “marketing” myself and my pieces, i just wanna make things and have fun with it! vending and my website never turn a profit and are really stressful/time consuming, so i’m taking a step back from all that.. so yeah if you want something you gotta lemme know 🫶
