About Us"CREATIVITY IS MAKING MARVELOUS OUT
OF THE DISCARDED. " Anonymous JOANNE NIJHUIS DESIGNER + FOUNDER |
|
We are a multigenerational family business on beautiful Georgian Bay with a commitment to timeless design, the environment and our local community. All of our original products are handmade by Joanne and her daughters from either recycled, overstock, remnant or eco-friendly textiles. Although we specialize in creating environmentally-friendly clothing and accessories, we also occasionally dabble in upcycled home décor and decorative items. |

Over the past 10 years Joanne has been collecting and re-purposing vintage and recycled textiles as a creative pursuit. She has also salvaged old blankets and sweaters with beautiful colours, patterns or texture. Where others see old and out-dated, Joanne sees new possibilities. Joanne has also devoted many hours to designing her own patterns with a goal of creating clothing and accessories that are comfortable to wear and flattering to many body types and ages. It is Joanne's hope that her clients will love wearing their jin-eco-couture purchases for many years to come. |
