Hi, I’m Elina — a self-taught seamstress with over 10 years of experience creating unique garments. Sewing is more than my profession; it’s my passion and daily joy. I love to create pieces for myself, my family, and my clients, and I’m deeply grateful that my hobby has become the work I truly love 🖤
(ex. KidzAndCostume) is a small sewing studio creating vintage-inspired costumes, whimsical mushroom hats, and playful dinosaur outfits for children and grown-ups who love to dream.
This shop was born thanks to our son who was obsessed with dinosaurs at age 3. I made him dinosaur tail, then the dino hoodie and I decided to publish my first listing on etsy and it all went successful. From dinosaur tails to vintage inspired corsets 🧡
When my 5th grade english teacher asked what I want to become in future - I said seamstress! Few years later my parents gave me s SINGER sewing machine as a gift for my birthday. I made my first strappy dress with ruffles for my twin sister graduation at age 16. I am self taught seamstress - all the sewing wisdom comes from the youtube, with a lots of patience and support from my family.

Love to create is my favourite saying - I can not sit still and do nothing (only in case of a good movie). I like to crochet, knit, photograph nature with my cameras, I like to run, to go to the gym, travelling around the world, hiking, spending time with my family, I love gardening in summer (we have 4 seasons in Latvia), but most of all - I like to sew. I am so fascinated that I can make a garment from tiny pieces of fabric.
