Just over a year ago I started trying to make embroidery pieces like Dandelynes because I loved their merchandise, but there was a postal strike and I couldn't buy what I wanted, so I started making my own Make. The results turned out great and I felt like I could sell my work on the market as well. I didn’t have many definite plans at that time, but what I was sure of was that I really wanted to turn embroidery into a long-term hobby or even my career! For traditional embroidery My interest gradually faded, but I discovered other aspects of fiber art. This also proves that sometimes you really don’t have to plan too much, after all, plans are always changing! I shared some thoughts and talked with AlessadraCodhina On why my embroidery has become so popular. Embroidery used to be my third favorite hobby, after horse riding, reading or writing. Sometimes I would be scrambling to find my cotton, gauze and thread needles on the plane. , until I finish a piece, usually they will be birds, flowers or sea creatures. Most of my works are put into boxes as soon as they are finished. If I don't transform them into pillows or lenses, That would be given away as a gift at Christmas. People won’t These pieces remind me of me all the time when I wear them, so when my awareness increased in 2016, I was surprised that others noticed me! You could say its because of "Gucci", after all, its sweet and well-known, they preached the preciousness of ruffled embroidery. Or a few years ago, Valentinos dreamy organza gown The exquisite threads on the embroidery are also a major driving force for the popularity of embroidery. You can even take a look at my wardrobe. There are Mexican country-style singles, Ukrainian vyshyvankas, embroidered fur coats, Levis jeans, etc. The embroidery on it stretches from the ankle to the hip~Oh, I didn’t realize my fascination with embroidery at that time~ But what we are discussing today is about my works and how I became "popular" , I think "nostalgia" is a big element, and people are paying more and more attention to fashion and uniqueness. At a time when big brands are rampant, when imitations are rampant, when counterfeit goods are prevalent, hand-made embroidery seems to be real It has become a very unique existence. We are told to cut down on complexity and return to the essentials. Who needs so many things? I am just grateful that time-consuming craftsmanship can be recognized again and their value can be reflected. Nowadays, we mainly communicate with the world through Snapchat and Instagram. Social networks take up a lot of our time. My works are also popular on social networks. The Internet is a magical place! < /p> The creative handmade franchise store tells you that in fact, most people don’t know how to do it. I often wear Valentinos exquisitely embroidered dresses, so small, more practical and everyday embroidery decorations are more in line with market demand. For example, a T-shirt with a small piece of embroidery, the embroidery will not occupy the majority of the clothing. , but it’s like the finishing touch that makes you different from others! Innovation is what I have always pursued, so you can see my racket embroidery works.
< /p> I also like to do street embroidery art. Generally, street embroidery works are relatively large, which makes people feel very different.
