My Story
Welcome to my world, where wool is transformed into unique jewelry, inspired by nature and crafted with care.
I primarily work with merino wool, a material of incomparable softness, which I shape using two ancient techniques. The first, needle felting, allows me to sculpt the wool into precise and compact forms, often using molds to create hearts, leaves, or other delicate shapes. Each piece is carefully weighed to ensure uniformity, although every color remains unique.
The second technique, wet felting with hot water and soap, allows me to shrink the wool fibers to form three-dimensional pieces. Once the fibers have shrunk, they remain in place, making each piece of jewelry strong and durable.

My inspiration comes mainly from nature. Whether flowers or wool beads, my creations are like suggestions of natural elements—you may not always recognize the exact flower, but you get the feeling you've seen it before. I love imagining that my pieces could be worn by little forest fairies.
My journey has been shaped by a deep passion for ancient techniques, but also by self-taught development. I’ve learned through trial and error, constantly challenging myself: can I recreate this shape in wool? This process has pushed me to expand my creative boundaries. In addition to my research, I’ve attended workshops with professionals to further refine my techniques. My creations are a reflection of this passion for ancient crafts, combined with a modern and unique artistic vision that guides my work.

Why?
I make jewelry representing nature with natural fibers because I believe that wearing nature reminds us of its beauty and the reasons to protect it. Also, because handmade objects help to preserve ancestral hand made techniques for future generations.
The 5 most important values for me
-
Co-creation: "We can all grow if we create together." My vision? I wholeheartedly encourage fiber artists and promote the wearing of natural fibers. I also love to create with other artisan to learn and create together. I have a real fascination with collaboration, seeing art emerge and intertwine in new creative ideas excites me.
-
Nature is my value par excellence because it is essential to find solutions together for the future of our home. I question every decision of my company to be as ecological as possible, for example, by choosing ecological boxes or local wool from my dear Quebec.
-
Natural beauty. My universe is surrounded by sweetness, calm, and joy. I share my love for the simple life by making women feel beautiful and confident. By using wool, I challenge the world of fashion and jewelry, breaking entrenched codes. "Yes, you can choose nature on a daily basis when you want to feel pretty."
-
Education. I strongly believe that learning emerges when we take the time to share with others. I want to pass on what I have studied and give value back to the next generation of artists, especially women. I wish with all my heart that this know-how will continue. We can all grow if we share our discoveries together.
-
Respect and well-being. I encourage respect, transparency, well-being, and positive communication in each of my interactions, both with my partners and clients. Communicate positively!
