It’s a Textile Tuesday

September1

Hi everyone! I have to show you selections from one of my favorite textile collections. Today, I’m all about  Florence Broadhurts’s graphic black and white textiles.

Aren’t they Fabulous?  I love her bold prints, and I think I could do a whole room inspired by them. The peacock feather print above is my favorite in the collection. And  I would love to upholster chair similar to the wingback chair in the image below:

If you can check out the the  movie Unfolding Florence. I stumbled upon it on cable on day and only became more interested in her designs. (Hey, isn’t that poster amazing?)

Let the beauty of what you love be what you do. -Rumi

I’m Jessica and that quote by Rumi are the words by which I live.

With a BA in Art History and a MA in Interior Design, I am armed to create beautiful spaces where ever I go and I am always researching, learning and doing in pursuit of my creative endeavors. Because I needed a place  where my design ideas,  discoveries, creative whims and inspirations could call home, Design Wonderland was born. Here, in my wonderland, I curate an eclectic mix of all wonderful things that inspire me on a daily basis. Though my first loves have always been art, fashion and design, I am also inspired by my insatiable appetite for good food, good friends, new places, beautiful poetry and lots of tea. My hope is that through sharing my thoughts, you will be inspired to create something beautiful too.

Beauty is all around,

Jessica
