September’s Hearth is a small Victoria based business, selling handmade kitchen linens to fill your kitchen and food-based practices with beautiful, yet useful things. All items are made with natural fibres and printed either by hand with hand carved linoleum blocks or digitally with artwork inspired by the bounty of food around us.
bio
September’s Hearth was created to express an absolute need to create and an immense love for food. I am an artist and a mother, and while I’ve done a lot of things with work and school, I always come back to art and a love for the kitchen. I went to school for science and in that time everything I learned only made me want to paint.
I also found Anthropology while I was there and was taken in by the biological and cultural importance of the foods we eat. After school came kids, and with that my priorities shifted to inside my own home. I discovered surface design and fabric printing while making things for my home and kids. While doing this I started a website to share projects and recipes as a creative outlet, and that would mark the beginning of what would evolve into my budding linen business now.
September’s Hearth is a celebration of home, supporting our home-based practices and food preparation. With the cozy feelings and abundance of early Fall brought to the hearth, the center and heart of the home, and where at one time all food would be made. My linens are made by hand with love and intent in bringing beauty and joy into those everyday practices that are so important and yet so easily overlooked.
