Waterlogue - art for everyone!

The app could not be easier and is a lot fun. Filters color into a saturated watery image that provides a new photo/painting. It is addictive especially for anyone without the skills to paint in watercolor, try it!

Have you grown tired of the mass produced art you find at your local trendy home store or discount store? Shopping for art is very personal and it may take on new excitement if you visit your local trendy resale shops and flea market venues. It is a chance to go beyond the mass-produced and find something unique. I highly recommend it.

How to Mix Patterns Successfully

Some simple guidelines 

Make sure that you change up the scale of your patterns. Scale is one of the most important factors; choose at least one large, one medium, and one small scale pattern.  You need to make sure that your fabrics are going to complement each other and if you have too many prints in a similar scale they will end up fighting.

All photos are great samples of mixing pattern.

Consider the colors that are in your prints. Choose colors that are either similar in intensity and/or similar in hue. You don’t want to use a fabric with muted soft colors with other fabrics that have bold bright colors; you will lose the interest of the lighter fabric amongst the others.

Remember to use repetition. The repetition of color and pattern in a space result in a cohesive design. It is always good to use a common color throughout your prints and you want to disperse this color through the room, whether it be in artwork or accessories as well.
