My talented friend, artist and blogger Emma Kaufmann of Emma’s Pet Portraits got in touch recently offering to add some much-needed bursts of colour to our living room and new home.
A lover of bold home decor anyway-the kitchen is red and yellow with black and white tiled floors, with the lounge and the rest of the home, neutral in contrast in a palette of pastel pinks, blues and greys allowing the artwork and furnishings to offer the bursts of colour and vibrancy, reflecting my personality perfectly.
These stunning Yummy Hummingbird design cushions depict an endangered saw-billed hermit hummingbird feasting on a large torch ginger (this design is featured here on 2 sofa cushions and 1 large floor cushion, former £30 each, latter, £95)- real statement pieces against my revamped vintage cream velvet chaise longue and slate grey leather sofa from IKEA.
The darling woodland Little Owl Cushion is perfect for Oliver’s bedroom that features an oak bed and turquoise light shades too-I just love the owl’s sweet eyes and expression which matches my own little owl’s too!
One little owl for another huh!
You can also witness Alexander below jumping on his brother’s big bed. Thank goodness Oliver, 5, doesn’t yet read my blog hey!
Emma Kaufmann’s collection of cushions and floor cushions include beautiful paintings of animals you’ll fall in love with including:
Love Birds, Little Owl, Green Dog, Mummy & Baby Giraffe, Pop Art Pug, Puppy Love and Yummy Hummingbird. An animal artist, this collection is the natural move adding splashes and splotches of colour to any room in your house.
My boys adored them and Oliver eagerly enquired, ‘Wow, are we going to keep these, Mummy?’ So cute!
The cushions are made from luxury faux suede and the images on the front are created by dye sublimation printing technology that actually heats and dyes the image into the fabric providing a washable, colour-fast and wear resistant finish (so important with little people). The style reflects a silk dye look and the hummingbird design is also available as a silk scarf.
All the pieces are manufactured by hand in the UK.
To win 2 stunning sofa cushion and 1 large floor cushion of your own, worth £155 please enter via Rafflecopter below and don’t forget to head to the site at Art Rookie where the pieces are sold in the UK, and comment on which cushions you’d choose if you were to win!
