Salvaged Rubbish

The idea of salvaged rubbish has came from my love of crafty nature and desire for a sustainable outlet. All the goods are made from production waste or found items from resale stores, except for functional parts; ie waxed linen thread for binding books, metal clips for hair pieces. The ideas and products will continuously be changing given the materials at hand. I hope you find something fun in my craft and enjoy my great attention for detail. Comments & photos of you and my craft are much encouraged.

Portland, Oregon
I have been living in Portland for the past three years and have finally managed to fill my life with only the work I love. I have met people I will forever remember and have gained so much new knowledge that has impacted me uncountable ways; my thoughts and true beliefs will never be misguided. Taking a liking to the "moonlighter" ways & underlying force of my Sagittarius nature, I've locked in variety of jobs to make a living. The thing I love most in being an instructor. I teach art to students of all ages; taping into a variety of mediums and printmaking processes. In the winter I work as a snowboard instructor on Mt. Hood. I have had a crafty kick to me since I was little and have been doing a bit of that in an ecofriendly fashion. My friends are my best costumers, thanks guys, I also set up at Last Thursday and such to get rid of goods. My newest gig is working as a freelance surface designer. Its way cool, I get to experiment with my printmaking skills on fabric. One of my pieces will soon be found in stores by Nike.
