An Etsy Gem

I stumbled upon this Etsy store via Kirsten. What a gem I have found!

The shop is called "giardino" and sells many different things. But my favorite are her hand blocked fabrics:











My favorite favorite is this thistle fabric:



I think I need it in my home, yup!

These are beautiful fabrics - thanks for sharing. I love Etsy! I am going to experiment with some hand painted fabrics soon (just bought some fabric paints and some inexpensive raw silk to try it out as pillows first). I so love French Script type pillows and fabrics.

Glad to find your blog!

Beautiful! I especially love the leopard print pillows, and the neopolitan faux bois pillow before it. Great find - adding Giardino to my favourite sellers list!

The pineapple print reminds me a lot of Colonial designs. When the pineapple was rare and costly and sometimes the (rented) centerpiece of gala parties. Yeah, merchants used to rent out fresh pineapples to ladies so that they could put them on pedestals. They'd be rented out for a few parties. Then the REALLY rich folks would actually buy them to eat! The folks who rented them had to settle for dried or candied preserved pineapple.
