Newly arrived! Velvet Pillows

We are thrilled to feature our charming Velvet Pillows! Two beautiful themes that have delighted our clients. ā€˜Contentmentā€™, feeling the island vibes of placid sheep grazing under a canopy of Olive trees, yes Salt Spring Island has Olive Groves!

This idyllic scene originally inspired from Tuscany where I spent six weeks immersed in painting and exhibiting my art at Museo Dā€™arte di Chianciano. Everyday I drove back roads viewing a contented scene of sheep grazing in quiet areas. Here on Salt Spring Island we have many sheep farms and years ago our semi Mediterranean climate spawned a few experimenting farmers to grove Olive Trees. TheOliveFarm.ca is today a small cottage industry blossoming with production of olive oil that together with charming views allow a deep reminiscing of beloved Italian travels.

ā€˜Happy Danceā€™ my second Velvet pillow richly imbued with twirling roses offers up a positive feeling to any decor. Charmingly sophisticated roses evoke warmth, love, calm. Roses have been a favourite theme for me as well many clients.
