Woodland Cushion Collection

I have finished my first collection of Woodland Cushions. The textiles on each cushion is hand dyed to create unique ombre blends and shibori inspired shapes. I will be making different variations of these designs in a selection of woodland shades. If you see one you like grab it fast as they are all one of a kind! Alternatively get in touch as it may be possible to create a bespoke woodland cushion to suit your taste.


















Lots of beautiful, natural and earthy colours. These luxury cushions are made of soft silk and cotton velvets.

My first Julemarked!

Last weekend I had a stall at the Copenhagen International School Julemarked (Christmas Market).

Thank you to everyone that came and visited my stand! I met so many creative and inspiring people. It was really great to get such positive feedback on my new 'Woodland' collection of cushions. My natural dyed makeup bags were also a hit. I still have some available on my Etsy Store. Here are a few pictures of the event... 








Did you notice all my wooden crate displays? :) For tips on how to display crates check out this post!






Here was my helper for the day, matching the cushions! ;)

Crate Inspiration!

I have become a bit obsessed with wooden crates. They are just so versatile, you can use them for so many things and they are full of personality. I tracked down 4 old Danish apple crates that I plan on using to display my work. I cycled with one on my bike and went back by 2 buses to get the last 3! My bus happens to be the busiest bus line in Northern Europe so you can imagine my struggle!


Where there's a will there's a way!

I have scoured Pinterest for tips on displaying your crates and these are some of the best ones I found...

Inspired by woodland....

I've been working on a new collection of cushions inspired by natural earth tones. Living in Scandinavia for the past two years has influenced my colour palate. Calm grey, blue and white tones are seen everywhere in Scandinavian interiors. Norway in particular has a deep rooted love of nature which I also share and has motivated me to create this collection. These cushions are made of beautiful soft silk and cotton velvets. The textiles are all individually hand dyed making each piece unique. Here are some pictures of the finished textiles waiting to be turned into cushions...










This is me working away on Saturday night... Rock and roll! Stay posted for the final cushions!
