Mashulu Trunk Show w/Live Entertainment from Derek Smith!


Mark your calendars!

This Friday, July 3rd from 5 to 8pm, Eklectik Funk Boutique will be hosting a Trunk Show for Mashulu Studio!

Talented Hampton designer Artina Slaughter will be showcasing her newest one-of-a-kind handmade handbags!

Here's a little info about Mashulu..."In the Swahili language MASHULU means 'backstitches'. When sewing, one often starts (and ends) with a backstitch. Though the actual act of backstitching requires you to go backwards, those stitches serve to strengthen and support the stitches ahead. That concept parrallels life in that setbacks make you feel as though you're going backwards when those same setbacks are essentially providing strength and foundation for great things that lie ahead.MASHULU bags are individually hand-made with practical details and simple shapes, allowing for individual embellishments to take center stage. Each bag is made in extremely limited runs to give the customer the feeling of having a functional and exclusive piece of art. Custom options are also offered to further reinforce the exclusive experience."

There will be live music from local musician Derek Smith, solo singer/songwriter, and the lead singer and guitarist for the award-winning local band Family Tree!

Refreshments will be served and there will be great special discounts on all merchandise!

See you soon!
