Jen Brannen

Inspired by all things Waldorf, a handmade birthday crown is my favorite tradition to celebrate a little one's trip around the sun.

I've always been passionate about making things and getting creative with the resources we have on hand. My background is in apparel and textile design, which I practiced in New York, Paris, and London for over a decade. Now I live in my seaside hometown in Florida with my husband, two sons, and extended family close by. 

You'll find me (with at least 1 kid on my lap) either designing recycled swimwear or crafting - maybe with felt, probably with cardboard, definitely with heart.
