Some of our wooden treasures!
Some of our latest exotic wood pieces!

Today
Here are some pictures of my funky bags! As you can see I love to use bright colours!
I currently make tote size bags, beach bags and diaper bags! Jewellery is my main focus, so I usually make a couple new bags a week!Welcome to in-bloom
So just a little background on in-bloom:
My name is Jillian Driedger and my husband (Kaleb) and I are the creators of In-bloom! Everything is handmade by us in our home/shop. I am a graduate of Fashion Design, who LOVES to create Jewellery! My favorite is making necklaces!! My husband Kaleb is a wood worker and guitar builder so the exotic wood part of our jewellery started with using the left over pieces of wood from the guitars. ( http://www.kdgstringworks.ca/ )It started as a couple of bangles and earrings he made for me, and we loved doing it so much the exotic wood has become a fun part of our line! We now go to the wood stores not only for material for his guitars, but for me to pick out wood specifically with jewellery in mind! So much fun! Kaleb does the wood working part and I help him come up with the ideas, and do the finishing. I us mostly semi-precious gemstones in my jewellery along with the exotic wood. I also sew bags! You will find plenty of color and interesting details. Most bags are reversible, which is something I love! I am new to this whole blog thing, but excited by it!
