MY JOURNEY.... 

 

 Within a year of graduating from a BA in Textile Design at the National College of Art & Design in Dublin, I went about setting up my own label 'Bláithín Ennis'.  It all began when I was invited to participate in a Christmas design fair. It was my first experience showing to the public and it was here where I saw the true potential of my creations. Having wonderful industry experience with New York based designer Diane Von Furstenberg, I launched my first collection to the Irish marketplace at the end of 2012. 

I'm absolutely passionate about creating a quality, innovative brand for my customers who appreciate design and the handmade item. I'm based from my studio with my loyal, dynamic team in the South East of Ireland, where every piece is designed and handmade.
