Re-Bloomed 2.0 is a collection that is inspired by abstract florals in combination with scrap yarns, to enhance existing homewares, giving them a new look without using any new resources. I have designed my collection with the mindset of designing for cyclability, along with designing to minimize waste. The main techniques I have used within my collection are embroidery, pottery painting, latch hooking, punch needle, and weaving. All methods capture texture and showcase the scrap yarns at their full potential.
