25.01.2022 I had the pleasure of working on this beautiful bilum recently. Dating back to about the late 70s, this two sided bilum has lasted a long time. After a clean, I mended a small patch and replaced the handle with a leather strap. One happy customer and above all, I am so glad to have revived this heirloom.
22.01.2022 Handwoven natural fibre bilums from the Sepik River of Papua New Guinea.
21.01.2022 Now available online. These pieces have been handmade with 3 layers of Cotton, a filter pocket and adjustable elastic. Link in my profile.
20.01.2022 I have had a few enquiries about reusable cloth masks, so have put together a selection of prints. These are the recommended 3 layers, with a filter pocket. Elastic is removable if your prefer adding a ribbon to give your ears a break! Add a disposable tissue or paper towel for the filter pocket. **Please note these masks are for personal use. They are not medical grade and do not replace N95 masks in use by healthcare workers.** #kokombadesigns #kokomba #clothmasks #sunshinecoastdesigner #smallbusiness #covid19 #masksformates

11.01.2022 I'm in love with my new labels by @littlelaserco This is a washable paper fabric....dont ask me how Most of my pieces come with their own dust bag, which I also make @ Sunshine Coast, Queensland
05.01.2022 Masks are back in demand and now mandatory in QLD! I sold out my collection recently and am currently making more to add to the online store. How wild is this print?! Link will be posted once I have completed the next batch. Do you like the sneak peak of my new leather pouch...coming soon!
04.01.2022 Autumn in the tropics! Designed and handcrafted by me, each piece takes time (and a little bit of swearing) to get it right! I've spent the last few weeks thinking about how lucky I am to still be able to do this. #kokombadesigns #kokomba #handcrafted #sunshinecoastdesigner #tropicalvibes #leathercraft #clutchpurse #slowfashion
