Spats... the style at your feet!

Stylish items can not be forgot and are destined to be put forward again, maybe under different appearances, even a lot of years after their first coming. The fascination of cult items surpass their historical context and become timeless. In my opinion, this is the case of Spats!

From being traditional items of uniforms, Spats evolved adapting themselves to our age. In this way, they become an essential accessory able to give a touch of great originality to your way of dress. Elegant, casual, glamour, fizzy or classical, spats can adapt themselves to all styles, to all shoes, to all contexts, to all seasons and to all wishes.

All these spats are handmade by me with high quality fabric and a lot of love!

Hand-stamped fabric covered buttons!

I love to carve rubber stamps with my own hands but I have to admit that this time my sutisfaction is double: I created some handcarved rubber stamps purpose-sized for buttons. In that way, more than use stamps for paper, fabric, wood, glass, porceline, etc., you could create fabric covered buttons very customised... as you can see, the outcome shown in these photos is too cute!

Almost all these buttons measure 7/8 inches, that's size 36, excepting the set in which there are the littlest ones which measure 5/8 inces -size 24.

These buttons are on sale in sets chosen by me, but customised orders are always welcome!!

Please contact me if you like them, I can arrange a listing on my shops of your chosen buttons!

Prices:

Size 24: 1,2 € each one;

Size 36: 1,4 € each one.

Note: Shipping fees are not included.

Some of these sets are now on sale on my etsy shop

Fabric Moleskine's notebook covers

Moleskine is the heir of the legendary notebook used for the past two centuries by great artists and thinkers, including Vincent Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, and Bruce Chatwin. This trusty, pocket-sized travel companion held their sketches, notes, stories, and ideas before they became famous images or beloved books. Today, Moleskine is culture, travel, memory, imagination, and personal identity; I adore the simply elegance of these handmade notebooks and among cahiers, diaries, and adress books, I have to admit that's never enough for me! In order to distinguish them, seeing that they so many that colours are not enough, I'm used to customise my Moleskine notebooks either making little stamps on them or crafting fabric covers that, more than protect them, give to these notebooks a sweet zakka looking. These ones into my photos are some covers that I've purpose-made for Moleskine's notebooks. They are available in two sizes:

• Pocket size: 9 x 14 cm (3 1/2 x 5 1/2 "), the cahier has 64 pages and the last 16 sheets are detachable;
• Large size: 13 x 21 cm (5 x 8 1/4 "), the cahier has 80 pages and the last 16 sheets are detachable.

The stamps are also hand-made both with hand-carved rubber stamps and with stamps from my personal collection. The ink used is the VersaCraft one... the outcome is so sweet, I really hope you like it as well!!

These are some samples of the cover for the "large size" that I've done inspiring me from The Red Riding Hood and The Little Prince:
