About Us

 

 

Hi! I'm Renee, owner and founder of East & Market!

Wife, Mom of 2, Maker/Creator/Artist and Pediatric Occupational Therapist! I have my BFA in Crafts and a Masters of Occupational Therapy. 

My background in crafts originally began in the metalsmithing space. As I grew as a maker I found myself most at home and comfortable in the field of fibers. 

Exploration of the ancient craft of  embroidery and weaving allows me to experiment with pattern, texture, color and shape while also learning about its rich cultural history.

 

There is something magical in the hours spent which each design. I love watching my pieces develop and come together. The end result is often unexpected and emotionally satisfying  

These days I focus on creating new styles using sustainable methods. I am very interested on how my making impacts the environment and I love exploring methods to decrease the negative impact I have on our precious earth  

 

 

 

My mission is to create small batch and one of a kind items using sustainable and thoughtful methods.

Please follow East and Market on social media. I am active on Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat Twitter, and Pintrest!

Thank you Thank you Thank you for your support!
