From Canvas to Couch

The Versatility of Art-Printed Home Furnishings

Art has the power to transform everyday objects into expressions of depth, emotion, and expression. Art-printed home furnishings have become a popular trend, allowing us to bring art into our lives in unique and unexpected ways. Many years ago I had a line of housewares printed with my art sold by Macy’s. Since then I’ve loved the versatility of art-printed home furnishings, housewares, and accessories. Fusing functionality and expression is a powerful way of designing your world to reflect yourself.

Phone Cases

art at your fingertips

Your phone is more than just a device, it's an extension of your personality and style. With art-printed phone cases, you can turn your phone into a mobile masterpiece. Protecting your phone is a need, but you can use it as an opportunity to make a statement. Your choices are limited in the technology you choose, but if you want to feel like you have something a bit more special, why not wrap it in art? There are thousands of cases you can buy, but why go with something standard? Why go with something ordinary? Why go with something that everyone else has? 

Our subconscious responds to subtle cues that we perceive in our environment. When we choose a piece of art we resonate with, we create access to a feeling. That feeling is tied to the art, and we get to experience that every time we see it. We pick up our phones countless times every day. We place it in our eyeline almost everywhere we go. By choosing art we resonate with on our phones, we can create an emotional experience for ourselves every time we want to connect with the world. With art at your fingertips, you can carry a piece of beauty and inspiration wherever you go.

tea towels

functional art in the kitchen

The kitchen is often the heart of the home. It's where we gather with family and friends. It's where we nourish ourselves physically. By incorporating art into the space, we can extend that nourishment to our emotional experience as well. Art-printed tea towels are an excellent way to bring art into the kitchen while serving a practical purpose. I don’t know about you but I’ve got a kitchen full of tea towels and I use them for all sorts of things. Originally designed to line tea trays they are now an essential item in every kitchen. 

It’s the perfect opportunity for a touch of art, color, and pattern. Art doesn’t have to be framed. It can also be soft, functional, and absorbent!

latte mugs

sip in style

There is nothing that changes your state quite as powerfully as coffee. From that first sip, you can go from groggy and slow to bright and ready to face the day. Pairing your morning cup of sunshine with a piece of art that moves you, can further design the mood you start your day with. Even if you wake up on the wrong side of the bed, choosing a morning ritual that reflects emotion and expression can subtly interrupt a pattern you might feel is out of your control. You can salvage a bad day before you take your last sip by wrapping your hands around a piece of art that moves you.

carry art on your shoulder

Whether you’re packing for the beach, heading to the farmers market, or just heading out to run some errands, these bags are versatile accessories that serve a practical purpose while allowing you to express your personal style. Art-printed bags take this versatility to the next level by turning them into walking canvases.

pillows

artistic comfort for your home

Pillows are essential elements of home decor, providing comfort and style to your living spaces. Traditional aesthetics tell us that art should be on the walls, and our furniture and furnishings should be more standard. While a couch itself can be a thing of beauty, adorning it with art-printed pillows can fuse function and feeling. It allows your furnishes to transcend their traditional roles and ascend to a new experience of your space.

Seize Your Canvas

So much of life is out of our control. We are subject to the whims of others, to the realities of daily life, to the twists and turns of fate. By ornamenting our homes, bodies, technology, and accessories with artistic expression we can steer our emotional experience using subtle cues of expression through art. Incorporating art into our everyday lives brings beauty, and inspiration, transforming our lives into a gallery of comfort. Art-printed home furnishings allow us to embrace art in unexpected and meaningful ways. Let your life become your personal canvas and elevate your everyday life.
