Tarragindi Lampshades

Recently custom-made lampshades for Steve and Caroline's lovely home in Tarragindi, Brisbane.

How elegant are the French Doors? The lampshade on the vintage lamp stand features our Peacock Party design in Creme print on natural linen.

Hanging pendant lampshade features our screen Fretwork design in Blue Marine print on natural linen. This room is quite special as the dining table was made by Steve's dad.

Yay for our Queensland climate and outdoor deck living!

Bag, Curtains & Chair

Customer submissions of 2 very different projects using the same fabric. What do you think?


Linen bag designed by Flax and Muse.


Curtains submitted by Articulate Architectural and Interior Design. You will find the fabric here.


Same design again as a reupholstered vintage armchair done previously by the Flourish and Blume girls. Trimmed with eco wool felt, the Tentacality design here is screen-printed on the upholstery weight linen.

Hamptons Style Lighting

Collaborating with friends is so much fun. 

I'm so excited that we have put together a selection of our screen-printed fabrics to create beautiful lampshades for the Hamptons Style wall sconces from A-M over at Cape Cod Designs.


What says Hamptons more than Navy (our Blue Marine) and white? All 100% linen, of course. A touch of Queensland too with our Fretwork design.


More navy with our Marguerite design.


How different does the Fretwork look printed in White on Duckegg Blue/ Natural linen?


The same fabric printed with our Iron Flowers design in Creme.


Nice profile too. Finish is Antique Silver. Limited stock. See more information or order from our website.

Of course, you will also be taught how to put your design into a 2-way and 4-way repeat. For more information and to book a place, please visit our website.

We are offering an Early Bird Discount if you book and pay by July 31. Please note, that you will need to bring your own lap-top with Photoshop installed. You can down load the 30 day free trial version (see website for details).

The Works Glebe

I just found out about "The Works", a really cool retail space in Glebe, Sydney where 'creatives and innovators who craft ideas for the future based on a respect for the past' showcase and sell their work.

Creative Director Stewart Rimes recently ordered our Peacock Party upholstery linen in Teal print to restore these Retro TV armchairs. 

I've always wanted to see this fabric design on chairs and love the results (or am I just biased?)

And for the creative types in Sydney, you will be able to enrol into the upcoming DIY Bottle Lamp Workshop (August 4).
