meet: Brook Helfen
Creator of
SoSheSews

           
 

 
    SoSheSews is independently owned and operated by Brooke Bennett, located in Atlanta, GA. All items are handmade by Brooke using recycled, repurposed, and upcycled materials.  "I am really interested in re-use, particularly in the garment industry and see it as an opportunity not only to save resources and avoid contributing to inhumane industries, but also to promote one-on-one trade where the buyer deals and interacts directly with the craftsman."

Brooke’s collection of apparel, accessories and housewares are created through the use of unexpected crafting techniques, such as creating stylish clutches and wallets from landfill-bound fused plastic grocery shopping bags. Brooke draws her inspiration from the vintage and repurposed materials she finds, along with her love of indie style. You can find the entire SoSheSews collection at the beehive.
