NEC

On my visit to the NEC i noted down some useful companies that would be good to look at further, on their websites for inspiration and to see whats out there in the market at the moment.

 These include; sifcon international, walton & co, SR embriodary, PD Global , love lammas, house doctor, NKUKU, miss etoile, heaven sends, mathilde m , powel craft, disaster, Langs/LCDE designs, hill interiors and forever handmade cards.
From these i was only able to access a few as some didn't have websites and some were trade only suppliers, but from looking around the stands at the NEC i got a general feel of what vintage things where out at the minute.


Sifcon International ... 

Hill Interiors . . .

Both of these have that typical vintage 'shabby chic' look creating some thing with new materials and trying to make them look old. 

Although i love all things vintage and it is very popular in the current market i feel it has been over done and we are seeing the same old things therefore I would like to create interior pieces that have that vintage look but are a bit different to whats out at the minute.

I will use as much recycled fabrics and materials as i can. i like the idea of recycling, up-cycling and making something that could be one persons rubbish into a beautiful piece of art work that can be used for many more years to come, also i think that old fabrics are so much more interesting than new they already have life and character.
