Altadena Treasure

Yesterday I met with a very talented artist named Leslie Aitken who has a lovely little work studio in Altadena called LA General Store. Leslie has many talents, but focuses mostly on sewing, knitting and crochet and creating beautiful and unique garments and accessories. Her studio space is lovely and I really like how innovative her space is and how she re-used old furniture like shelving that was left on the side of the road! She also created nice little areas for various functions like a an area to meet with cients, a desk and computer area, workspace for sewing, a kitchen and even a shipping area!

Shown in the first photo, she found an old leaded glass window that she uses as a partition and it's just beautiful! There are also nice bursts of color from her yarns and notions. Thank you Leslie for sharing your passion for creation with me! Until her website is up, you may contact her at lageneralstore@hotmail.com or at 626.529.3386.
