Isabel (iszi) McPartlin is the multi-faceted creator & designer of each unique piece. Iszi is also a huge proponent of recycling so when it came down to cleaning out her closet one day & realized that she had a huge amount of jeans to throw out she instead decided to give them a second life. The first JEANwerkZ blanket was born! From there it has been a series of "make one for me" & "where can I get one?" from friends, family, & admirers. Each item is made from clean pre-loved blue jeans, and other articles of pre-loved clothing & embellished with anything from paint to genuine Swarovski crystals & above all LOVE. Like a true diamond, any blemishes, scars, or bruises that are left behind are evidence of the authenticity of the item. Like a masterpiece artwork each JEANwerkZ item is an original, one-of-a-kind, never to be exactly duplicated again item. Peace, love, & recycle!
