I started f.b.c.reations circa 2006, when life was good and on Sundays we’d watch Sex and the City, I was in my 40s era when I used to club hop in Miami Beach, I was skinny and my uniform was minidresses and heels, and my accessories the silver Razr and these statement necklaces I would make for myself. Friends started asking me to make one for them and it became a teeny tiny business run on my dining table at night or on my day off, with the help of my daughter who would play around with charms and beads and make the kids’ version.

Unexpectedly, I would find it soothing to manipulate semiprecious stones and ribbons.
This linen dates back to the beginning of the 1900s and comes from my great-grandmother’s trousseau. Zero waste technique made it a limited edition series of shopping totes. The preciousness of each one of them is the visible mending and the hand-embroidered pocket. 50% of the revenue will be donated for a better future.
