Snippets

Clothing Swatch Keepsake Album

This was a second year textile-based university project where we were asked to develop a product that would incorporate customization and/or personalization into it.

The concept that I came up with was a pocket keepsake album where parents would be able to cut “snippets” of their children’s clothing for memories. The idea was that the clothing would be able to be donated or given away to be reused, yet still allowing the parent to have a memory of it. The kit in its entirety includes the keepsake album, snippet template, patches, and a handy pouch to keep everything safe and together.

Materials: Bamboo veneer, rattan paper, recycled paper, hemp canvas, unbleached organic cotton.
