Art of Where and Etsy

So excited about the possibilities here as it would save on storage and air miles making the product more environmentally friendly.  
I have already ordered scarves before i could do this with AoW (art of where) but in a way before I decide to link them to my store this allows me to see the quality of there products. 
I was a bit hesitant of the cost as for 6 scarves it was $120 Canadian dollars but that only works out at about £88 which means I can definitely sell at a profit.
I want to look at ordering cushions as I consider fabrics for interiors.

Problem solved- Scanning

after talking to a friend I have worked out what the issue is. when scanning the images in I have to change the dpi. mines was sitting at 200 where as ideally it should be around 600. this means not only is the scan of a higher quality but the image also scans larger.

Fabric is finally here!

its finally here all the way from the USA! my enthusiasm however is somewhat deflated as I was hoping to have a larger pattern. I know this is to do with image/pixel size though am not sure how to over come this problem.

Digital prints- exploring dream scape and spirituality

I thought I would look at using digital prints and am hoping that this ma be a good income provider.  This comes from a dream scape of mine and feel this is something I want to explore more of.  I say dream scape but these images and words that come to me is never really when I am asleep though not fully awake either.  Even the words the edge of sanity reeks of liberty came to me in the journey between awake and asleep.  I have researched these words and the edge of sanity comes from Shakespeare's Hamlet though there is no reference to reeks of liberty that I can find.

I spoke to my mother who is more knowledgeable  in these things than I says that the way I describe it is almost like an outer body experience.  

Interior ideas

some ideas I have for interiors. thought not looking at wall paper these examples give me an idea as to how the pattering work within an internal space.
