OnyxMatter is a home decor and gift line all handmade in Brooklyn. A variety of techniques are used to make one of a kind pillows and wall hangings, such as embroidery, indigo shibori dyeing and quilting.
I collect vintage textiles from around the globe and repurpose them into pillows and wallhangings. Some of my favorite materials are denim, Guatemalan huipils, and 90s florals. I make my shibori from upcycled cotton fabric that is wastage from the textile industry. Shibori is a great medium for giving textiles new life.
I teach workshops in traditional Japanese shibori- indigo tie. I love to make beautiful things and love the process of creating.
