Tayler Ratelle is the creative mind behind Art.by.Tayler, a sustainable brand that transforms secondhand fabrics into one-of-a-kind, functional bags. With a background in Fine Arts from Fanshawe College, Tayler’s path to becoming a maker was born out of rediscovering her passion and choosing creativity over comfort.

During the pandemic, a gifted sewing machine sparked a new journey—and soon, Tayler was rescuing unwanted textiles and reimagining them as beautiful, purpose-driven accessories. Her work reflects a deep love for artistic expression and environmental consciousness, giving new life to fabrics that would otherwise go to waste.
