About me

I am a maker following the good old fashioned principle of “make do and mend” but I bring this concept into the contemporary environmental and ethical context of “reduce, reuse and recycle”. Why throw away an old shirt, jumper or a skirt when you can just as well put it to better use by re-purposing the fabric, wool, buttons and zips? These principles of re-using and recycling items were a prominent factor throughout my upbringing and I still apply them to my everyday life now.

I also apply them to the jewellery and craft items I make and incorporate into these not only re-purposed items, but found objects as well. At milomade you will find a range of handmade jewellery and craft items made from a variety of items like safety pins, buttons, beads, threads, silver, leather, denim and ceramics. All the items in this online shop are handmade in Kinghorn, Scotland and are guaranteed original milomade creations.

I love making interesting colour combinations and patterns with the beads and buttons I use for my jewellery and I like to name my jewellery products to reflect their personality and individuality. All my jewellery items are unique, one of a kind, one offs, individuals. I never make two jewellery items the same, so you are guaranteed of owning an original item that stands out in the crowd.

Custom made orders are also accepted, so if you like what you see but would prefer something in a particular colour, then please get in touch to discuss your requirements.
