Handmade Housewares – i am dorkas

handmade apron

You get the sense browsing through i am dorkas’s shop that there is a history behind each unique item that is for sale. I personally fell in love with the apron and napkins pictured above, and I couldn’t resist including the vintage picture of Mari’s mom who made the apron. i am dorkas is a family affair with both Mari and her mom making kitchen linens, Mari and her boyfriend collaborating to create jewelry, and Mari’s talented boyfriend taking photos of it all. One part shop – one part scrapbook and family history, i am dorkas features fabrics found in Finland and jewelry made from clock pieces – I think you’ll want to browse around a bit to learn more about fun loving Mari and her family. Click here to visit the shop.
