ORONO, MAINE – Jessie Sader owner and designer of FX dressed and STUDIO boutique in Orono Maine, has a vision of how sustainability and creativity can be intertwined. STUDIO which is only in its second year in Orono, showcases handmade crafts, clothes and jewlry of not only Sader but also other local community members who feel they have something that they would like to share with others.
Sader, while she sits cutting out patterns of shirts and blouses from a 6-foot-high spool of material explains that when people come into the store they are surprised to find the clothes reasonably priced. “Just because its handmade does not mean it needs to be expensive,” Sader said.
Sader views the space as a place where she can pass on some of her ideas about buying local and knowing where all your products come from to the customers. Sader also is also a big fan of anything creative and unique and said that she will even be selling long boards in the store, which are made by an Orono local.
“I love it here in Orono, I love inspiring people to be creative,” said Sader. Sader is currently working on having craft classes put on by some of the local talent. Showing others how easy it is to do it yourself and still look great.
