Amelia Brooks
Amelia grew up surrounded by antique shops and forgotten heirlooms, which explains her obsession with giving old things new life. After years in graphic design, she left the corporate world to focus on slow living and handmade projects with character.
She transforms discarded tin cans into wall art and thrift-store linens into something beautiful. Her projects celebrate the beauty of reclaimed materials and the stories they carry.
When she is not crafting, Amelia restores furniture, visits flea markets, or fills a journal with scraps and stories from her adventures.
