Vagabond Ruth was born from a desire make beautiful things and make things beautiful.
When expecting my little girl I struggled to find decorations for the bedroom she would share with her big brother that I felt embodied the freedom and whimsy I hoped for my daughter. The pink fluffy stuff I found in stores just did not feel like “her” to me. I searched for items that were unique, beautiful, and functional and the rest I made. While sewing together wild coral and turquoise fabrics with a vintage pillowcase embroidered with mustard flowers, I knew I was creating for only my Corinne.
This is the same mindset I bring to my work with Vagabond Ruth. I design for the individual. No two rooms, homes, or art are the same. My reverence for individuality and uniqueness is present in every project.
Vagabond RUTH
I am Niñon. I am Vagabond Ruth.
I am a maker, creative, and mother to many beings with freckles, feathers and fur.
Should you need me I can be found barefoot, planting succulents in the ground, making dinner for whomever I can round up, or zenning out painting and listening to music a little too loudly.
I have paint on my hands, leaves in my hair, and stains on my clothes from whatever I currently have cooking on the stove.
My passion and my magic is making houses feel like a home.
Who is Vagabond?
Vagabond is me. And my children, whose creativity and imaginations delight me daily. I grew up internationally and am inspired by travel, adventures big and small, literature, art, music, people and ideas.
Who is Ruth?
Ruth is my lovely grandmother. She was a maker, creator, and a can-do kind of person who, as I learned later on in life, also happened to be wonderfully fun to chat with on the phone. My Gram is the spirit of togetherness that envelops and inspires Vagabond Ruth.
