FAQ
The nature of handmade:
Every piece is often made entirely by hand, usually with natural and organic materials. These one of a kind pieces spend many hours in my hands before they arrive in yours. During that time, I put my heart and essence into creating a beautiful and unique piece, that I hope will bring joy for years to come. Therefore, no two pieces will ever be identical, and all pieces will likely lend hints at the handmade nature.
Do you consider commissions outside of your current focus?
Absolutely! I'm well-versed in several creative mediums, and love blending techniques when the project calls for it. Please take a look at our commissions page for more details.

Care Instructions:
Textiles: As it was made, please handle with love and care. Each piece is pre-washed and sent with a packet of gentle soap and custom care instructions based on the materials, if you cannot locate yours please contact us immediately.
*A good rule of thumb is cool room temp water with a bit of mild soap, hand wash, lay flat to dry.
Wood: Each piece arrives coated in a food grade coconut-based wood oil. We recommend hand-washing with non-abrasive sponge. Continue to keep utensils hydrated with food-grade mineral oil/wax as needed.
