Nini – Quirky Colourful Wall Art

Nini – Quirky Colourful Wall Art

Nini is made predominantly from the same piece of printed velvet fabric. Its so colourful, I decided to use different parts  randomly, for a quirky look. She is certainly a hare for a bold interior.

She has a khaki green braided trim, and the gorgeous shot slubbed dupion silk on her ears compliments her patterned florals and eyes. Her whiskers are black and her plaque is kept simple with a medium brown stain.

Dimensions are approximately 260H x 130mm W x 170mm D

All my animals are mounted on a wooden plaque with a keyhole type hanger set into the back. All you need is a hook, screw, or nail that is suitable for your wall, to hang it on. I will include a suitable screw with your package.

They are made from high quality upholstery fabric scraps and swatch books, and most of my fabrics have been saved from waste. I use a variety of trims and hardware when needed, to support any fragile edges. For some styles, I will fray the edges on purpose.

I use a polyurethane foam form and build off  that. The ears are sewn, The eyes are glass or resin. I make the mane and forelock  by unravelling fabrics to make a fringe, or by using yarn. They are finished with scotch guard.

All my beasts are unique – I never make two the same.

Please note – these are not a toy.
