ChANGELing

ChANGELing a creative bubble made from recycled materials and first hand love foot, dollops of fun and a little bringing your imagination in to manifestation. whoo hoo!
(16)

chANGELing would be if a description was in order: a multijack one of those pocket ones like swiss army knives exept ....... its universally worldly and a member of the secret love service, have hands that need to do.(twiddles the wool around fingers)..something mostly most of the time. I love materials, textiles, leather, paper, wool, plastic, old cardboard boxes,old clothes, buttons, zips, stitc

hes, weaving, carving, costuming, twisting , knotting, un-knotting,painting, finding ways to use things that would otherwise e deemed as "bin fodder/rubbish' can you think of three things to do with a used yoghurt carton?? i bet you can !

How to respond when your no longer able to harmonize with your main tool.....

Navigating a realm I never thought I'd find myself in , grief and frustration replaced by gentleness and letting go .... slowly .

I've been getting migranes every time I use this beauty, for over a year now , it makes what used to be the best job in the world , somthing that's a struggle 💔

It has brought questions of identity , value , and usefulness , in an attempt of override the vulnerability of sharing .....

I started to just sit and stare at this dream machine.....wondering what's next.

Ebbing and flowing into what comes from composting the s*â™Īt and watching the mycelium flower.

So here's the tea frens

The shop space has been flooding and growing mould against all of our best efforts to keep it safe for fabrics ..... resistance as the say has been futile , so a refurb is once again underway a new leace of life another incarnation for the beautiful little heaven we build ..... without the fabrics.... yes , that's it !!

During the winter months the shoo will reopen in another more collaborative form ..... full details to come ! And currently looking for a few collaborators who want to exhibit and sell their non fabric items in the run up to xmas and possibly beyond. Dm for details.

On a personal leavel I have been experiencing chronic tinitus , for many months , which has taken my attention , patience and extreme razor edge of sanity preservation......I am at a place where help is beginning to flow and my ability to understand how to regulate this invisible to others ailment is growing ...... excitement for what the future is growing is real....my ability to be present online is growing again .

Sharing is caring as they say , so thanks for being there and being here ...... we hope to see more of you soon.

Stay tuned friends , in love and respect and gratitude!

Well my loves , that's it !

New adventures await,
Thanks changeling for showing me how
To give others what their imagination see's

Shapeshifting thru creativity will always inspire me , however with new times comes new focus , new boundaries and new freedoms!!

I had this whole massive plan for a big good bye , however I'm in a sunny field .... so being present with there and now is where it's at!!

I still have a bunch of stuff to sell off , a shop to clean and close and loose ends to tie up ..... but for now , I'll just let them blow in the breeze and see which ones dont fly away!

So long, and thanks for all the fish

The count down will begin to closing , giving it back to the fairys ..... no one can keep a fairy baby forever!

Seeling of my stash to make space for the next adventure , which includes but is not limited to

Re-moving
Re-vitalising
Re-locating
Re-training
Re-membering

Things are getting strong at the roots of this next phase!

Yes !!

The process of giving back to the fairys ( or closing down this business..)

As you may know , I have taken to decision to close changeling , to stop being a seamstress and costume maker , and to turn my other talents , loves and current obsessions into a shiny new way forward.

I'm keen to play with the potency of words, I chose the name chANGELing 15 years ago ... feeling like it epitomised many aspects of what I wanted to share with the world .

I wanted to take discarded things and create beauty that empowered people , which I have !

I wanted to help people become closer to aspects of them selves , the playful , the creative , they wearing things that made them feel safe to do so .... which I have.

I wanted to play, and have the freedom to shift between things that I loved doing , play , create , freelance, teach, learn, perform, chANGELing allowed me to do all of that freely

There are many more aspects which have been fulfilled over the years , and the gratitude for the time spent in all these realms is tangeable.

So how to let go of somthing like this , with celebrations of course !!

It will begin with.... a sale , over the next weeks I will be getting all the stock cleared that's complete .
I also have a couple of little projects I'd like to complete in this time ......
AND quite a large stash of personal costumes to let go of .... still trying to figure out how this part flows .....
I want to make a couple of dress up boxes , that people can rent to take to a party or festival ... share the silly clothes loving all around .

Preparing to honour this process

So I'm setting the date of midsummer solstice, to give chANGELing back .

In the beginning , we went really slowly
Gave ourselves time
To feel , to see , to rest and allow !

Without rushing in , we can feel deeper
See farther and hear better

Lucky us !!

In a world full of captains , be a briga-deer !

First time video!!

Ooft .... learning to flow with the times, and to be present in person.

As a one woman small business, at a time of mass consumption , being in the loop with local wants and desires is important to me ,
Leaning to share not only my creations from my own head, but a space where I can make your ideas for gifting your loved ones come to life !!

I'm normally far to busy at this time of year to offer this! So I feel greatful to be able , to share in the excitement with you!

Been weaving , wrapping , wriggling
These beautiful colours together

Thinking about how to be more lightfooted
In a season of heavy handed waste
.... baby steps , nimble fingers
And the beginnings of somthing
Really beautiful

Struck by the beauty and fragile ness today! Of what's still here from summer , and to what's coming for this glorious winter time.

Took this pic in the park today, no filter, after sitting just looking for a while , at everything changing

Surrender , often we as female bodies have to learn all the layers off, these thoughts also are a big part of my reality and yet , in nature all things must at some point after they have show their true colours ....surrender to the cycle.

I dont know about you friends ,but this full moon time of the brightest in aires and libra , the " I am balance" brings beautiful gifts, and shining seeds of ultimate potential......

That's it now, back to your scrolling ....
Remeber to smile at the sun tomorrow !
