My name is Ieva and I am founder of bebrave. I was born in Lithuania and for the last twelve years, my home is in Ireland. I have always valued Original Good Quality Clothes and Accessories and loved to go treasure hunting to second hand clothes shops. I was searching for myself in different professional fields for years. I have studied and worked as a journalist and photo reporter. I then chose to study technology of photography. After emigrating to Ireland, I studied Textile Design in the National College of Art and Design in Dublin. Beautiful handmade things were always close to my heart. I come from a very creative family, who loves arts, crafts, music and value good style.
