It was nice to wake up and see my faux suede floor cushions is a lovely fashion shoot for Pisamonas kids' shoes over at Honest Mum's blog. Apparently her son loves his Pisamonas' boots so much he even wears them with his PJs! The hummingbird floor cushion is available at Art Rookie. Honest Mum says she loves her cushions and they wash perfectly too!
Right now my younger daughter is running around in a total panic wondering what to be for halloween. She wants me to make her a minions costume out of papier mache and chicken wire and I'm like, yes I know I'm an artist but I'm also pooped so can't we just get it from Party City? I think she thinks there is something inherently 'cheating' about buying a mass manufactured costume and she may be right but then why not try something a bit simpler with stuff you have lying around the house like some old manky bits of makeup?
Apparently there's some image called 'rainbow vomit' that you can put on someone's face on instagram - although no one's ever done it to be but then I don't post many selfies and don't even have a selfie stick!! But it still makes me feel old as the hills. If you are on instagram has anyone ever 'rainbowed' you??
So if I was going as anything I'd do the rainbow vomit I think! Looks fairly easy to pull off. What do you think?
I am also thrilled because 12 of my cushion designs are in the Ohh Deer pillowfight competition.
For a limited time they are available for purchase at Ohh Deer's website on my page:

This link is to one of the designs but the rest of the designs are underneath.
The more views, shares and faves I get the more chance I have of winning the competition! So if you'd pop over and give them some love or buy one that would be very much appreciated.

Great post - except perhaps for the rainbow vomit! I wear my Uggs at home, too! Happy PPF, hugs, Valerie

Fun post and what a gorgeous collection of your work.
ReplyDeleteThose cushions are great... I've had my cushion in the Ohh Deer's competition too. Not this time so no conflicts here ;D
I glad to say I use Instagram but haven't experienced the vomit! I also don't have a selfie stick.
I like to be on the other side of the lens.
Happy PPF to you
What happened when you were in the Ohh Deer comp? Did they eventually put your cushions for sale in their shop?
DeleteI'm not sure how it works. Do they generally not allow people to submit works only during this pillow fight?
This made me laugh:) I hope that you and your daughter can come to some agreement about the Halloween costume - a papiermache minion sounds complicated (& hilarious!).
ReplyDeleteYeah if I have to make a minion costume with chicken wire and pliers I'm going to end up with blood on my hands and be in a really bad mood. Its time to just bite the bullet and buy a costume that's made of flammable polyester and have done with it.
DeleteSo funny I would think you'd need to start the minion costume in August to be ready for Halloween...that is a huge project... love the painted rainbow though..that would be fun!! Love that your pillows are out there...so gorgeous with the artwork... very impressive!!
ReplyDeleteHugs Giggles
well, I like the rainbow:):) Your work looks gorgeous on the pillows-congrats Emma!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous designs! Haven't seen the rainbow vomit before - but the makeup version actually looks quite pretty! (Though if it carried on up does it become the rainbow roadkill look?!)
ReplyDeleteOh your pillows are gorgeous! and i started laughing as soon as I read your post title. what will they think of next? Must be another ploy to keep kids on IG. As far as the costume at party city. been there and done that....... tired .........as a single parent having raised a twin son and daughter, do it and be done with it .Save you a lot of headache and more time for your own creating. That's my thought.
ReplyDeleteThat rainbow vomit is so much better in face paint than on the app! I have always adored your designs Emma, you are such a talented lady. Off to do some views and favourites for you now. Thank you for linking to #PoCoLo, it is great to see you x
ReplyDeleteNot sure how I feel about the rainbow throw up, however I do know that I LOVE your pillows and I am going over to the link as soon as I finish this comment. I hope you win!!! Still blog hopping from PPF! I've been gone for a while so I am trying to visit as many sites as I can. Sure am glad I made it to yours :-) have a great week. Rasz #60
ReplyDeleteRasz....thanks so much for clicking for my cushions. Great to see you on PPF. I think I might be going as cleopatra, well that's my latest idea.
DeleteHmmmm rainbow vomit? OK what ever. LOL I do love the pillows.
