Repurposed

About my aka, “Repurpose Me”:

Before finally deciding to pursue my passions amongst multi art disciplines, I worked as a hair stylist for 13 years where I took advantage of many opportunities to explore and break the monotony of salon work and participate as a hair artist in hair & fashion shows within the Kansas City, Missouri metropolitan area.
These experiences were inspirational to my more recent explorations in textiles, sculpture, and performance; taking me into a realm of experimenting with techniques and materials- originally with heat fusing recycled plastic bags into a durable material, which is not only expressed into my mixed-media work but also used to create functional items such as purses, bags, and wallets.
Heavily entranced by all ideas of sustainability, recycling and repurposing, my Repurpose Me shop is endorsed with these ideas, in which I sell wares created from treasure trash/ repurposed materials for a “throw away” society. Not limited to my own handmade though, you’ll also find antiques and vintage within my Repurpose Me shop as well.
