    BACKSTORY

    This one of a kind piece is crafted from horse show ribbons awarded at the Van Buren County Fair in Keosauqua, Iowa, during the 1970s, with each one quilted together to form the fabric of its backstory. The delicate ruffle is made from an unused white silk bed sheet. On the back, a rich, chocolate-brown suede fabric—passed down to me by a friend's grandmother—featuring a vintage white button at its center. Pillow insert included. 


    Materials: Satin / Suede

    Care Instructions: Spot clean or dry clean only to preserve the integrity of the vintage materials. If you take care of it, it’ll take care of you for years to come.

    A note on secondhand and vintage elements: Your piece may show subtle signs of its age. These items have lived many a life before taking on their current form. The natural wear and tear they carry is evidence of the passage of time and their unique backstories. I will always strive to find the highest quality pieces possible to ensure they can continue to live on for years to come.

     

    Please note that all orders are final sale due to the human and handmade nature of every piece. Your support sustains this artistic practice and I love you for it.
