*Expected to start shipping orders in early March.*
Pre-orders close February 7th at 11:59PM CST.
Limiting the pre-order window allows me to control how many I can take on so that don't get too overwhelmed or take too long making your orders! I do not want to get my designs mass-produced and/or unethically made, so they still will be 100% handmade by only me start to finish.
Every piece is both designed and made by me in my studio. I sketch each flower onto my tufting frame and then "paint" with the yarn using my tufting guns. I use my tufting gun like how one would use a paint brush (only it's significantly heavier and bulkier) and "blend" the yarn colours. Similar to viewing a painting and the 'uneven' brush strokes, there may be an occasional imperfection, or unevenness in the tufting. Because each and every piece is handmade by myself, I put a lot of love and care into every single one.
Each piece is hand-tufted with a loop-pile tufting gun and a vintage speed tufting tool, using acrylic yarn and then finished with an acrylic felt backing.
Sizes (by type):
Cymbidiums (Peach, Periwinkle, & Pink) - 42 x 41 cm
Cattleyas (Green, Tan) - 41 x 38 cm
Vandas (Light Pink, Orange & Magenta) - 38 x 36 cm
Phals (Light Yellow, Lilac, & Orange) - 42 x 37 cm
Yellow Dendrobium - 39 x 38 cm
Slight variations of +2/-2 cm may occur, as each flower is hand drawn onto the frame.
When will I receive my order?
Please keep in mind it can take a minimum of 4-5 weeks to receive your order as each piece has to be drawn onto the tufting frame (which is only big enough to hold a handful at a time), tufted, glued and then backed with felt before they are ready to be posted.
If I end up receiving a lot of orders, it may take a few months to complete and for you to receive it, especially international orders. Once the pre-order window closes I will have a much better idea of the timeframe and will send a follow-up email to everyone who put in an order! I will also send update emails throughout making all the preorders.
These orchids are smaller than the previous drop with the intention to be be hung on a wall or a small statement rug. There will be wall attachments (d-rings) added to the back, so the rug can also be hung on a wall if desired. The d-rings lay flat on the felt which will allow the rug to remain versatile and lay flush on all floors and surfaces.
