My name is Karena, the creator behind Double Denim. With a commitment to recycling and sustainability, I upcycle clothing (mostly denim) to make unique pieces of clothing for women with an individual style. I enjoy exploring second hand shops and finding denim, doilies, fabric, cushions, really anything that I can re-use to give my clothes a unique style. My crafts are also created with recycling and sustainability in mind, by using left-over, second hand and donated fabrics.

Having always had a creative streak, I've been a florist, enjoyed mosiacs, woodworking, cross stitch and sewing (amongst so many more creative interests). My mind is full of new ideas, I just need the time to get into creating them in my small home in the North Shore of Auckland. In mid-October 2022 my friends gave me the courage to start my own business. I started selling my items at markets in November 2022 and since early January 2023 I started selling on Felt.

I get such a thrill selling my products and knowing that someone is enjoying one of my unique pieces and feeling good wearing it.

If you see something you like but it's not in your size, contact me and we can discuss custom-made orders. As I'm constantly coming up with new ideas, my products are ever changing so keep checking in and explore my Felt shop.
