RENEGADE: So, Helen Irene Handmade, please talk us through your typical day.
HELEN IRENE HANDMADE: A day for me can involve many different things, I have come to learn with weddings nothing is typical! I try to get in some time daily though to craft new pieces and usually have an order or two in progress. A lot of time is often spent sourcing quality and special materials to dream up new accessories each season. I’m always on the hunt for pearls and anything that sparkles! As I welcome custom orders, I might meet with a bride to create a bespoke piece just for them. I want every bride to feel unique and special on their big day.

RENEGADE: Whats inspiring you right now?
HELEN IRENE HANDMADE: Florals and pieces with an edge. I’m loving simple dresses with a statement accessory. A gorgeous necklace, soft floral halos, colored shoes. I’m finding brides are wanting to have more fun with their looks and daring to try different things, it’s been inspiring me to be more playful with the pieces I create.
