Handburned Hats & Wearable Art
These pieces are not just hanging on walls.
They’ve been on stages, beach walks, country drives, family days, festivals, first dates and wild nights out. They move through real lives, carrying story, strength and bold expression with them.
With over 10 years of pyrography and a lifetime as an artist, I hand burn each design using traditional wood-burning techniques. Every piece is one-of-a-kind, crafted with heat, precision and intention.
While my signature custom hats started it all, my wearable art now extends to to jackets, bags, boots, belts and more.
These aren’t mass-produced. Not replicated. Art made to be lived in.

No lasers here. Just me, my heated Razertip pyro tips, a mind and heart full of ideas and a hat that wants to become something more meaningful.
It’s not fast. It’s not perfect. That’s the point. Each mark is permanent, intentional and alive. The burn is then sealed in for longevity so your hat can live life with you (please remember, it is still art).

I only take a limited number of custom burns…and when I do, it’s a collaboration. We chat about what’s important to you: symbols, stories, mood.
I’ll proof a design that captures it and once you approve I start the burn, adding my signature flairs as I bring it to life by hand.
Slow, soulful and it’s something only we could make together.

I’m still figuring out shipping options, but right now it is local pickup or meetups within the Shuswap and Okanagan area or if you can catch me on a trip home to Saskatchewan ;)
Live further or want one shipped to you? Just reach out and we will figure something out. If a hat is calling to you, we will find a way to get it on your head ;)

Thank you.
Every time I get to create a hat that finds its way to a new home, it opens a space for more creativity to flow through. Your support doesn’t just help me keep the spark lit, it lets me keep listening, expressing, and doing what I love.
From the bottom of my heart (and my fiery little pyro tips)… Thank you.
