These were the first products that I started with, and apart from the beauty of the design, I wanted to offer practicality. So after much research I opted to make these in a twill polyester base, because it is the easiest fabric to wash over and over again, with most stains being easily removed with basic washing powders, machine washable, and little ironing needed. The sublimation print process means that colours don’t fade, so it’s made to last.
I also offer a slightly heavier fabric that looks and feels like linen, called a poly natural weave (PNW) but which is perhaps better for the runners only as it is slightly heavier. Also a polyester based fabric where all stains come off.
There are various designs, such as roses (red and pink), orchids, proteas, aloes, giraffes, lions with aloes, palm leaves, Madagascar palms, delicious monster leaves, sunflowers and seashells.
The next in table setting is placemats & coasters, and here again the less hassle with washing, the better. So the placemats are offered in a PVC base that is easy to clean, just with a little water or soapy product. It can also have an extra laminate coating on the PVC, and is also done on a “supawood” base, with shapes being rectangular, oval or round. The coasters are in the same PVC with a 2mm foam board base, or in the “supawood” base as well.
Cushions are the finishing touches in a home, and a lot of fun to create because it’s like doing a painting. Colour is everything and I certainly have quite a lot to choose from. The fabrics offered here are the poly-twill, the thicker linen look PNW (poly natural weave), as well as a cotton slub. The sizes are from 45cm to 60cm square, 80x40cm or a bigger size if required. Available in designs that compliment the tablecloths, but here again colours can be adjusted to fit your decor, or new designs created just for you.
This kimono is in a poly-satin blend 120gsm, making it a luxurious feeling light weight fabric to wear, that drapes beautifully and perfectly in our hot climate. As these are bespoke items, they are ideal for hotel & spa lodges, as well as for bridal pamper parties, where colours or design can be adjusted to blend in with a theme. For now this is only available in one size that fits from a small to large size.
Why Satin? It’s recommended by plastic surgeons, hair stylists and top beauty experts. A cotton pillowcase draws moisture from your hair and skin while you sleep. A satin pillowcase allows your face to move across the pillow so there is no tension of stress on your skin. So…… NO wrinkle lines on the face from the fabric. No dishevelled hair look, because satin fabric lets your hair slide gently across it. Cotton causes more friction and disrupts the hair cuticles. This is also the reason that it’s recommended for people that have lost their hair from the chemotherapy process, as it does not irritate the hair cuticles during growth
The final touch of accessory to complete any outfit, or simply just tie it to the handle of your handbag, just in case! One of the latest additions to my range of products, after looking for the right fabric. It’s “cotton-like” and feels like voile but here again it’s poly based and easy to wash all the stains away. At the moment being offered in 2 medium sizes (a square and a long one, but only 50cm wide), and then a wider and longer one for those that want it more substantial looking at 1x 2 metres. The proteas design also make it an ideal gift from South Africa
