firecracker's shop
The name ‘Firecracker Clothing’ comes from my daughter India; she is a wild, wonderful, adventurous, and wacky delight– and we call her our little firecracker!
I trained as a printmaker and painter producing etchings, lithographs and woodcuts and then moved to painting, which took up less room in the house. Along with these creative passions I have dabbled in ceramics, mosaics, and sewing. I have always been a hoarder and delight in finding interesting fabrics, embellishments and oddities.
I love creating and having two daughters was the beginning of turning my creative drive towards children’s wear. I make clothes using new and retro fabrics. I strive to make garments that look like designer specials without the price tag! I love mixing unusual fabric combinations and ultimately work to make beautiful clothes that I would feel proud to dress my little princesses in.
