Props to Miss Malaprop

I recently had the good fortune of being interviewed by Mallory, author of Miss Malaprop, a blog dedicated to highlighting the best in “independent designers & artists, eco-friendly and sustainable products, New Orleans & Gulf Coast based businesses and issues, and people & organizations who are working to make the world a better place.”

Mallory is a writer and has also been active in helping to renew New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. She is also a gifted designer, creating upcycled and reconstructed clothing. While she no longer sells her items, she is open to custom orders. For more about her designs, see the Dismantled Designs page on her website.
