Indelicato sold bags on her Etsy shop VitalTemptation, and scarves on the shop ScarfObsession.

“I work with wool, silk and other natural fibers using very unique and almost forgotten techniques while creating my designs,” Indelicato wrote on LinkedIn , describing her work.

“I use felting, [which] is an ancient textile art, where manipulating wool, warm soapy water and rolling, squeezing and rubbing creates a very special one-of-a-kind piece.”
