By appointment

Describe the Business:

All Rumpelsilkskin designs are made from repurposed items, with a thoughtful collection and composition of materials to flatter the wearer.  These included upcycled neckties (creating a higher value product with the materials of the original product), and are used to make hats, purses, bags or collars.  They are artistic and fun art-to-wear.

As Rumpelsilkskin says:  “There are a lot of discarded or unloved items out there just waiting to be used.  Rumpelsilkskin designs make beautiful wearable art out of materials that already had a useful life and are ready for their next adventure.”
