interior inspirations: woven tapestries

December 04, 2014 by Taryn Antoniou in art, decor, home decor, home, interior design, interior inspirations, wall art, handmade, weaving

I am currently obsessing over these wall tapestries that these talented weavers are creating!! They are SO cool.  They are the epitome of handmade perfection.  The pieces shown above are by Warped Threads and Anne Djupvik Andersen.  Absolutely beautiful. 

Lucky enough I have a friend who makes magic with fabric and yarn. We will be doing a little trade for trade!  Loving this project.  We will be documenting the process of the piece on a crafternoon hopefully in the near future!  I LOVE the mauve, camel and cream color story.  Eek! I'm so psyched.

To shop Warped Threads go to etsy.com/au/shop/WarpedThreadss. Follow Anne's weaving blog at weavemeaway.blogg.no. You can follow both of them on Instagram at @warpedthreads + @ada_interiors.

gift giving: lovewild design

November 18, 2014 by Taryn Antoniou in artist, brooklyn, flowers, inspiration, nyc, watercolor

A few months ago I met Sierra of Lovewild Design at the Artists & Fleas in Brooklyn. Her shop just jumped out at me. She really created her own little world down to every last detail. Everything from her products to the dress she was wearing to the milkmaid braid in her hair, she fully embodied her brand. It's people like Sierra who inspire me the most when trying to build my own brand.

That day I purchased a gift for a friend and a gift for myself. The tea vial gift set got the butterflies flapping in my stomach. Had to have them! They're almost too pretty to use, but as you can see from our Instagram I've cracked into them a few times!

Almost all of her products are made of sustainable materials. My favorite items are her plantables, the confetti or letterpress coins that can be planted and turned into wild flowers! Every piece has so much thought put into it. Please check out their website lovewilddesign.com. With the holidays right around the corner these are perfect stocking stuffers or hostess gifts!

Mallory Sophronia

June 05, 2014 by Taryn Antoniou in art, diy, flower crowns, jewelry, interior design, wall art, store design, apparel, artist

Mallory Sophronia opened their first ever brick and mortar this past weekend! The apparel and accessories line has a new home in a cottage in Kennebunk, Maine within the Morning Walk Galleries.

Kennebunk could quite possibly be one of my favorite places to visit. It has beautiful views, just a real sense of calm and more importantly, the best seafood. Ever.

Mallory Sophronia caters to the bohemian beach babe. The girl behind the brand pays homage to her ancestors and their namesake through her handmade goods. What differentiates Mallory from other designers is that she makes clothing that fits all body types, there is no right or wrong way to wear her pieces and each piece is a true one of a kind. Her designs range from flowy and oversized to short and sexy.

My favorite piece I own at the moment is a printed purple kimono. It doubles as a skimpy robe around the apartment and a top that hints at a little too much, paired back to my black leather shorts. And of course... I own one of the orchid flower crowns. L O V E .

Mallory and I installed the interior space in about 3 days. Her family contributed a lot as well. The whole experience was so fun and freeing. We just did whatever the hell we wanted with no restraints. It was pretty cool.

To shop Mallory Sophronia from the comfort of your home go to mallorysophronia.com

If you're lucky enough to be in the area of the shop they are located at 2 Morning Walk Lane in Kennebunk, Maine at The Galleries at Morning Walk. The shop is open Mon, Wed, Fri-Sun from 10:00am - 5:00pm.
