Karin de Meij  (1963) is the groovy mama behind (Bonsoir) Saar  and a wizard with fabrics. Sourcing vintage (materials) has been our shared hobby since I was little and it fills my heart that we can join our shared love for earlier times and creativity. Karin used to be a full time fashion designer with her own store in the centre of Rotterdam. Empowering women with her designs and craftsmanship she found succes and some of her designs even ended up in a museum. Now she makes all of the Bonsoir Saar lampshades by hand from vintage materials like scarfs, beads and foots. Find Karin on Instagram @kaarkamer. Also keep an eye on this space for more fabric magic like pillows and who knows, there might even be some clothing coming up <3
