WELCOME TO PINNA 4 PIPER- A DELIGHTFULLY VINTAGE UPCYCLED ADVENTURE

Hi everyone, welcome to PINNA 4 PIPER's blog.
Here you will find posts on all my childrens clothing designs, past and present, that are handmade by yours truly for my label PINNA 4 PIPER! I like to consider PINNA 4 PIPER as an exclusive and eco- friendly label as the majority of items are made from a beautiful eclectic mix of vintage fabrics such as tablecloths, doilies and curtains or from second hand ( of the best quality ) garments that I have reworked. I love the treasure hunt and gather my inspiration from the fabrics I have found and the desire to bring them back into circulation once again.
I do use new fabrics as well but only in extremely limited quantities and only from the best fabric designers! There is no mass production involved and my collections contain one of a kind designs. The production from scratch all takes place in my families home around my very supportive husband and kiddies overlooking the ocean and surrounded by mother natures best landscapes and wildlife.
The bottom line is when you buy a PINNA 4 PIPER item you know you are adding to your childs' wardrobe a unique garment of clothing that is made with the best quality craftsmanship which is born from a passion of what I do and this garment will most definetely become a favourite for your little cherub.
ENJOY!

VINTAGE FABULOUS






I am so excited to share with you all my fabulous vintage find and what it has transformed into so far! Browsing through ebay the other ( well I was just supposed to be browsing, I tried I really did, woops lucky my husband doesn't read my blog, ) and I came across the most delightfully bright, fun and funky vintage childrens curtains. The price tag was a little steep ( O.K a lot steep for my "browsing" budget) but I knew I just had to have them. The possibilities of what I could do with this fabric were endless! So yes I clicked on the BUY button and yes when they arrived I hid them from my husband ( or at least the receipt ) and yes I started sewing madly! And here are 2 of the reproductions so far, I hope you enjoy! For more details and pictures click on the following link, PINNA 4 PIPER, and it will take you to my Etsy store where both these items are available to purchase. Have a lovely weekend everyone.
