Di started making bags around 2020. Having dabbled first in vinyl bags, backpacks and canvas she decided to try something a little different that was in some way kinder on the environment and hello up popped cork!!
Her first items were small zipper pouches and wallets - after those she was hooked. Di is a one woman show who works full time and does this "hobby" generally after mahi when time allows. You can often find her around the Wellington region at local markets on the weekends. Di loves creating beautiful bags and accessories that are both stylish and unique.
Did you know? Cork is a vegan friendly leather alternative, its a renewable, eco-friendly and sustainable resource that is naturally water & stain resistant. Cork is a great fashion choice especially for those looking for sustainable, cruelty free products.
