P4P: VINTAGE POP

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 POP

I came across this most lovely fabric a couple of weeks ago when I was searching for freshness. It is called VINTAGE POP and is designed by SHONA FARR designs in Brisbane, Australia.
The quality is divine, the print is divine, the rich redness is divine!!! I made this gorgeous little smock dress with it, teaming it with just some plain rich ruby red cotton, that I wanted to share with you all!
It is available for sale right now in my ETSY STORE, PINNA 4 PIPER, and has also been featured in an article at KIDindependent. Very exciting!!!! I just love my day ( and night ) job!
