Tweaked Designs

I take old/used clothing and jewelry to make new fun merchandise to sell at low prices. Specializes in tweaking the clothing you already wear.

Give me your boring clothing and I will tweak them out. Need some simple tailoring, I can do that too. Tweaked Designs also makes hand sculpted/hand crafted jewelry, hand made purses, bags, and pouches, and a wide variety of crocheted items.

Perfect Hygge day... snowing outside, watching Frozen, crocheting ponytail hats. This one has a spot for high or low and is already spoken for. The blue one in progress is up for grabs, $13. More on the way.

6 squares or 9 for a bag? I was thinking 9 for a nice bookbag size. I think I'm going to make a bunch of granny square bags and vests and sweaters for next year. I love working with color patterns. 😊

Making festive granny squares. I plan on stiching them together to make a bag. Like book bag size I think.

Y'all, my night is epic. Crochet and The Walton's. I am my mother's child. 😅 Went to a choir concert before this, so it's been a full evening.

A few of my winter holiday creations. Some are available in my store and the rest can be made to order.

Making these dish cloths for gifts. I don't use patterns, so I'm figuring out the design as I go. Just a little wonky, but looking at the picture is giving me ideas on how to alter it. Willing to make some to sell, $5 each. I can get them to you before the holidays if you're in the area. I never guarantee shipping time. 😅

Halloween bowties for the dapper fur buds. These slide on the collar. I'll be at the Bonifas Arts Center in Escanaba on the November 4th for the Holiday Art Fair with these and the rest of my creations. All vendors are local crafters and make everything themselves.

I learned how to knit and purl in a class I scheduled for my day job. Never even attempted it before today. I think I'm figuring it out. ☺️

My newest additions to my collection...the runes and the tiny cat deck. Both gifts, one I picked out. Always open for readings, just ask. Tips are welcome, but never necessary.

I think I'm mostly finished with my autumnal Stevie Nicks shawl. I want to attempt buttons or crochet flowers to be able to secure it in certain spots. This one's mine folks! There's one for sale in my shop in Americana colors and I have another started in similar colors. Send your holiday orders now please, tis the time. 😁

Every single time

Anyone want to swap some seeds or plants or whatever else would be equivalent to some wildflower seeds? Only local please, I don't treat anything and I don't want to transport bugs to a new area. I have Queen Ann's lace, the ones pictured I don't know names for (the fuzzy stuff in the first picture is normally white flowers), gigantorous thistles, milkweed, mullen. Pretty standard UP wildflowers, so nothing too fancy to swap, just an abundance. I would love more low growing clover and moss.

Making magic pouches for your crystals, a flower sprig, maybe a cedar branch piece... whatever you typically carry in your pockets or bra. If you want flakier potpourri you could bundle it in some cloth or a bit of drier sheet (cuz upcycling) to keep it from falling out the holes. I think I'm going to make some with bigger spaces too, so rocks are more visible. Haven't landed on a name for these yet. Any suggestions?
$5 each and a variety of sizes and colors available, and I always take requests.

Crochet break on this beautiful day. Fyi, I'm trying to smile but the sun's too bright and it's amazing my face isn't scrunched up.

Anyone want dibs on either yarn?

I found a few wool skirts at the Madison St. Boutique when I worked at YW in GB. They were all too small but I got them anyway. Decided I wanted to sew today and had an idea to cut up the one and add it to the other two. Then did a similar thing with those 2 green colored skirts. I'm excited to wear my new just in time for Autumn. I feel like the green tone skirt has hobbit vibes. I can do this for your clothing too folks. Message me for any project ideas.

I want to start a best friend gift trend where you get a towel, cut it in half, do this, and share one half with your bestie. 😊 This one goes to Stacy Simon

Just a few things still available in my shop.

Been working on this shawl for myself. Want it to be ready for spooky season. This heat is not for me. If anyone has more orange or red shades of scraps, I'd love to make a trade.

My best friend donated a stack of really cute bed sheets that I'm using as material for clothes. I let my friend Kendall Rusha pick out material for her twins and they got to try on the dresses I made them last night. They ran around going "oooooo" while wearing them. I love these 2 so dang much. Thanks Stacy Simon for all the material. I still have a stack of really cute prints, some flannel too, if anyone wants to order an outfit.

My Story

Tweaked Designs by Cole provides hand sculpted/hand crafted jewelry, hand made purses, bags, and pouches, a wide variety of crocheted items, and “tweaked” (aka up-cycled) clothing. I will also tweak the clothing you already wear. Give me the clothing your bored with or that doesn’t quite fit right, and I will tweak them for you. Need some simple tailoring, I can do that too. I have a hard time sticking to just one area of crafting so I also paint flower pots, turn dresser drawers into pet beds, paint store front windows, and a whole lot more. Please contact me for custom orders.

I keep my prices low by getting materials donated and by purchasing materials at low prices. I’m also willing to barter with people near the Green Bay, Wisconsin area.
