About Olena

Hi, I'm Olena. I moved to Denmark from Ukraine in March 2022 with my two kids. The first year was really hard — but I found a job at a small sewing shop in Nørrebro, and slowly things started to feel more normal.

I've loved sewing since I was 12. It started as a hobby and has always stayed that way. I love experimenting with different fabrics, figuring out new closures, and turning something forgotten into something useful and beautiful.

These days I live in Østerbro and make bags in my free time. I only use old clothes that people were going to throw away — I can't stand seeing good fabric go to waste. Every bag I make is completely unique, and I put a lot of care into each one.
