So happy to start this week with art. I was waiting for some time to have Mandi Smethells re-opening her Etsy shop* and voila, here we go.
(because I know how frustrating it is to see something you want just to learn you cant have it, so I prefer to wait!)
I also know that there are quite a few rainbows around, lots of macrame and other fabric wall decorations. But this, this is another world and quality.
These rainbows* (and some other cute items) are whimsical, colourful in the best of ways because it is actually an art to combine and find the perfect colours. Happy items that will be the sunshine of any room and that will stay forever. By the way, the biggest rainbow is three feet / ±92cm wide! True rainbow fiber art.
Mandi makes all of her items by hand, which means that each is unique and special. Her inspiration comes from her two young daughters, and the experience of motherhood:
The work I create is near and dear to my heart. As a mother, I am inspired by my daughters who embrace joyful imagery that is brought to life with playful colour. I can’t help but feel that each piece I create is adding a little more positivity to the world, which has sometimes been in short supply lately! I hope that my work puts a smile on your face.
For more inspiration you should follow her Instagram:
And good news: Mandi gladly accepts custom orders!
