Gift Idea | Lavender Filled Shapes

As part of our gift collection we also stock these exquisitely handmade French lavender filled shapes on our website, which are made with our first two fabrics:  the Pheasant and the Stork linens.

They are available in three shapes: a star, a heart and a square and have a divine, lavender scent.  We think these would make a lovely little gift for a newborn's nursery or, with Christmas fast approaching, would make perfect stocking fillers.  For those of us that have friends and relatives that live far away they make the perfect, unbreakable and lightweight gift to send for birthdays, Mother's Day or Housewarmings.

If you would like to purchase a Flohr & Co. shape, or any product you may have seen on our blog, please take a look at our online shop:

Alternatively, you can email us at flohrandco@gmail.com, we look forward to hearing from you.

This week we wanted to do a spotlight on these gorgeous lampshades made by Louise from Lolly & Boo.  These lampshades can be used as either a hanging pendant shade or fitted to a stand.  Louise even has two up in her own hall way!  We have been a fan of her work for quite some time and were delighted when she emailed to say she would like to buy some of our Pheasant print linen.

Louise's lampshades are beautifully made and you can clearly see from her Facebook page what a fantastic fan base she has!

If you would like to purchase one of these stunning Pheasant lampshades you can find them in the following places:

The Pheasant

After finishing my Stork design I decided to create a fabric with a more grown-up theme, which could be incorporated into other areas of interior design.  Again, I drew inspiration from my own home and surroundings when deciding upon a design.  I grew up on an old partridge farm and so had been surrounded by these beautiful birds when I was growing up.

I love the detail and colour in their plumage and knew as soon as I had finished embroidering my pheasant it would look stunning on fabric.

It seems that this has been a great hit and have seen some fabulous pieces being made out of our fabric. Visit our Facebook page here for regular updates on what is being made!

The Stork

I would like to introduce my first fabric:  The Stork.

As many of you may know I have two daughters, Phoebe and Matilda, and while I was decorating their nursery I had trouble finding fabric in the kind of style I had in mind.  Most fabrics for children are made in over-bright colours with unattractive designs, but I was looking for something more delicate and in the sort of shades and tones I would like in the rest of my house. 

I originally made my Stork design to go into one-of-a-kind, made to order frames for birth announcements called 'Welcome to the World'.  One day it struck me whilst looking in yet in another fabric shop and having no luck that I should use my own, unique Stork design. 

The feedback I have received so far has been both positive and lovely.

Be sure to check back soon as our Stork print will soon be available in blue and with different coloured backgrounds!

Inspiration

When I came up with the idea of making fabric I wanted to create something original that had never been done before.  I love texture and pattern and I have always loved drawing and colour, but my real passion has always been sewing.

I have sewn from an early age making all sorts of things, but let's just say I am not a perfectionist and, along with my dyslexia, I always seem to sew two left legs for instance!  When I was introduced to machine embroidery at the age of 14 by my textiles teacher I knew this was the thing for me.  I continued to use my trusty Bernina all throughout art college and this has now come through in the making of my fabric.

Each image is freehand drawn, painted using acrylics, watercolour, coloured pencils, wall paint - even nail varnish sometimes! - then embroidered and appliquéd using vintage scraps of fabric, before being approved and sent off to print.

I always have sketchbooks full of new ideas!

A Warm Welcome

We create designs for beautiful linen fabrics and make up accessories and complimentary products specialising in mixed media and freehand embroidery.

My background in art, textiles and photography and a passion for fabrics inspired me to found Flohr & Co.  All of the original designs are created by me personally and we hope you will be able to treasure them as we do.  My inspiration and first design was "The Stork" creating something unique and trulely special for my own new arrival.
