Three Sheets 2 The Wind: Art & Handmade Textiles

February 4, 2010

in Art, Design & Decor

Do you ever come across a shop where you want to literally just grab everything in it and run? He he :) Well certainly not without paying, but you get the idea, right? Well, that’s how I felt when I came across Three sheets 2 the wind’s web shop – I was instantly drawn to the pared-down aesthetic, botanically inspired prints and fresh colors, and I think you will be, too!

I was interested to read that Jenny Sauer, creative director of Three sheets 2 the wind, lists vintage prints, handmade textiles, and the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi, which finds beauty in imperfections and impermanence, as inspirations behind the company. The studio produces prints, textile art (pictured above), duvet sets, cushions and adorable tote bags, all in a range of juicy colors that I think would be perfect for waking up a tired winter home!

Don’t the duvets and pillows look inviting? They are a bit pricey, but when you keep in mind the fact that each and every piece is lovingly handmade with hand-dyed fabrics, water-based inks, and high quality linens and cottons with organic options, I see the prices to be very fair.

And I am just smitten with the prints! Each print is available unframed or ready to hang in a simple birch frame as pictured above. So nice! I would love to mix a few of these prints into the art wall I am plotting and planning for my living room! Go to Three sheets 2 the wind to see more, or check out this list of brick-and-mortar stores & websites that also carry a range of Three sheets 2 the wind products – and hm, I just noticed that one of the shops listed is the lovely Kreatelier, right in my own neighborhood! Maybe I’ll just have to go down there this afternoon – I’ll let you know if I find anything good! ;)
