Jade Holt of Lila Rose Upcyle creates contemporary textiles and accessories from reclaimed materials collected along the shoreline of the Isle of Sheppey.
Combining traditional textile techniques with discarded fishing rope, nets, plastics and organic materials, Jade’s work raises awareness of marine pollution while celebrating the resilience and beauty of coastal environments.
Inspired by coral reefs and underwater ecosystems, Jade transforms waste into richly textured wearable pieces that champion sustainability through thoughtful, innovative making.
For Crafted Futures, Jade will be selling a section of bags and jewellery.
Jade is an associate member of Design-Nation
