About Me

Saturday, June 21st from 11 am to 7 pm; Harlow In Chains will be participating in the Brooklyn Indie Marketplace ! If you'll be in the NYC area, come by and say hello, or bring your heirloom pieces to discuss a custom collaborative piece!

*If there's anything you've had your eye on in the shop, now would be the time to purchase or reserve it as some pieces will not be returning!

It is more purposeful to reuse an existing object than to replace it! We all contribute more and more waste from new mass production every day!! Aside from the fact that things today just aren't made the way they used to be... promote sustainable living; buy handmade - buy vintage.
I create pieces comprised entirely of vintage and antique items for that girl who loves her glamour with a side of edge and irreverence. I love celebrating the distinctions that keep us individual and therefore will never stray from creating one-of-a-kind pieces handcrafted using thoughtfully selected and re-purposed vintage and antique treasures.Green is the new black! Support sustainable living: Buy handmade; buy vintage! Recycle, re-purpose, don't replace - less waste, better taste!.
