The label jodii was created in summer 2008 and offers you a wide rage of handmade goods in timeless and colourful designs. Besides hand-embroidered patterns on cushions you find great hand-printed textiles like shopping and laundry bags, aprons, towels, tablecloths, napkins, bed linen and cushions.
The materials have first-class quality. The linen, threads and paints are all made in Germany. I am always looking for some new and better products. In some cases I also use vintage materials, especially old linen, because today you can not find this great quality anymore.
Recycling is a great way to let materials keep their history, but put them in another relation. I offer paper envelopes made of old atlases, Origami butterflys made of newspapers and industrial lamp shades with a new look. Since January 2009 I also have a small but fine collection of designed porcelain online.

Some weeks ago my aunt gave my a huge pile of great fabrics. At first I didn´t know what to do with it but I didn´t want it to get dusty... So I unpacked my home sewing-machine again and made some very nice clutchs. The first ones are available now - for a special price, because they are not perfect now. Whenever I will have the time, I will make some new ones. Every clutch is one-of-a-kind and decorated with a second-hand button. I will never make a similar one. WYSIWYG. Visit my new Dawanda shop! I hope YOU LIKE IT!!! http://de.dawanda.com/shop/ilikeit
