My design philosophy has always been a blank canvas (meaning white walls) is the best way to start. Ironically, its not something that I am currently implementing in my own home. BUT this house is the perfect example. Found via Emmas designblogg.
What’s your design philosophy?
One of a kind handmade & crocheted items made with pure wool from Miti Mota. The wool is produced by indigeous women of the designer’s country, Chile. How great is that?
Visit Miti Mota on etsy and papernstitch to view more of the collection.
Good morning. Hope you all had lovely weekend. Here are today’s picks from papernstitch.com.
That’s going to do it for this week. After reading more than 250 surveys answered by you all this week (thank you), it seems that tutorials and crafty business tips are amongst the two highest categories readers would like more of. I’ve already begun implementing the biz tips. And I have a lot of fun stuff lined up for next week too, including a long overdue tutorial. So, be sure to come back next week for that.
