Story

Here at Hibiscus we own a fairly simple philosophy.

Dream. Believe. Create.

My name is Kirstee Griffiths and I am an up-cycler extraordinaire.
I see potential in the pieces of yesteryear, and as the magic happens in the Hibiscus workshop they transform into something altogether alive again.

Each piece is totally unique, and welcomed are the scraps of vintage fabric found in Gran's linen cupboard to complete custom orders that can take your memories through the ages.
I use a lot of fabric decoupage, an emerging technique resulting in amazingly vibrant yet very hard wearing pieces. Having children of my own I understands not only the resilience their furniture needs, but also the funk that is so hard to come by to create beautiful spaces.

I am enjoying expanding my range and creative up-cycling with the newest addition to the Hibiscus Family - both tide clocks and fabric decoupage wall clocks.

I am big in to the quirk and pops of coulour for 2014, and these encompass not only that, but also my roots for all things having new life, which is why I chose LP records as a base for my wall clocks, and driftwood or vintage oars for the tide variety.



From vintage to retro to now, it's all here at Hibiscus.
