My Home: Kitchen Curtain Confusion...
Choosing the fabric for the blinds and curtains in our kitchen is still proving a struggle...P is being incredibly patient about the samples draped over every chair, cushion, table or surface that is vaguely horizontal around the room. I am usually so decisive that I am finding it quite perturbing that I can't make this one simple decision! One decision I am close to making however, is that the said fabric will be from the talented and inspiring designer Vanessa Arbuthnott. Her latest collection was created after a visit to a small, traditional block-printing workshop in India and is appropriately names 'Hand Printed'.
The collection is composed of three simple but effective designs: ‘Life and Eternity’: a traditional paisley fertility symbol ‘Butterfly Dance’: an enchanting butterfly motif ‘Simple Ticking’: a broad ticking stripe. The designs are hand screen‐printed and hand block‐printed on tactile and durable linen union, and the hand‐printing process affords them an uncontrived, individual appearance, which I adore. Now to choose which of the patterns will work best for our kitchen!
