Happpyyy Wednesday! I know itās been a few weeks since Iāve emailed, if you saw one of my recent posts on social media I realized that setting up my new condo was taking up so much mental bandwidth (and physical energy), I just couldnāt do anything else at all. But Iām glad to say things are moooostly sorted out now, here are a few pics of the gallery that is my homeā¦ šš
Can you tell I like vibrant colour?? š And speaking of colour, one more project I still want to do very soon is to sew cushion slipcovers for my couch. Itās going to be quite challenging as of course theyāre not simple rectangular shapes, there are bits ācut outā where the arms of the couch go, but the existing fabric is starting to show wear so it needs an update. Of course, I got some insaaaanely gorgeous upholstery fabric from our local Chintz & Co shop, their home decor fabrics are stunning (like gorgeous embroidered silks at $100/metre, etc). Thankfully this design wasnāt that expensive, but I think itās going to look awesome and match the existing couch colour (as I wonāt be covering the entire couch, just the two main cushions).
In case youāre wondering why I didnāt order some of my own designs from Spoonflower (as they have some gorgeous upholstery velvets and Belgian linens), itās because then Iād be critiquing my design constantly as I was sitting on it. Thatās part of the āfunā of being an artist ā even if you love a design, there are still always things that later you can critique, which doesnāt make for a relaxing experienceā¦ š
If youāre not as insane as me in wanting to make your own home decor yourself, Spoonflower is having a 20% off sale right now on their pre-made home decor. In the photos above you can see some of their offerings, such as a square throw pillow, sheet set, table runner, and napkins. The designs featured are my Fox & Squirrel design, Gothic Fan (in cream & charcoal), Victorian Flowers, and Art Nouveau Roses (in white). The nice thing about the custom-made home decor is you can mix and match designs (like say from one collection), or choose just the items you may use all in one design. š
