Timeless Nursery Wallpaper Challenge

The prompt for this week’s Spoonflower challenge was to create a design that depicts a “nurturing, serene environment for a newborn that remains stylish and relevant as the baby ages”. 

Bring it on!

I went for a gender neutral look with a design that is age appropriate to about age 10. I used a palette of soft colors and gave it a watercolor look

Hedgehog Fun

I also created a line art version which is available in a number of colors in the Hedgehog Nursery Collection a non directional print and a simple patchwork which was my entry for the baby blanket challenge.

Welcome to the World Spoonflower Challenge

Spoonflower are on a nursery decor kick and this week’s challenge is the first of two baby themed challenges. The prompt is to create a design suitable for a baby blanket.

So I have done things a bit backwards here and designed for the second challenge (nursery wallpaper) first. I loved the design so much I have carried on with my theme for the blanket with my thought to build up a nice little nursery collection.

Spoonflower Backsplash Challenge.

I was tempted to do something very geometric for the backsplash challenge but got sucked into a delft ceramics look feel where I let rip with my favorite color combination, blue and white!

I also did a few other color combination without the obvious tile look as I think it may affected the salability and I ended up building out a whole collection around my hero design!

Conversational Wallpaper

The prompt for this week’s Spoonflower challenge is Conversational and I went around and around trying to find inspiration for this one. A conversational design is one that takes an everyday object and turns it into a design.

So I had my hair cut last week and as I sat rabbiting to my stylist I had an ahha moment!

Hair Styling Tools

I feel a little collection coming on but I have not yet got to it yet!

Winter Holiday Patchwork

To most it will seem odd to be designing for Christmas in the height of summer and that fact actually really stilted my design for the spoonflower challenge this week. Imagining snowy scenes when it is 102 deg F on my patio was irritating, but eventually the design juices started running and I am super pleased with how my design turned out!

Christmas Wonderland Patchwork

I also did a version without the patchwork and a patchwork block! They are all for sale in my Spoonflower Shop in the Patchwork Christmas collection
