New floor / oil cloth for your Holidays

2' X 3'


The holidays is when a lot of our homes become a  B & B.  What a fun piece to have at your entryway welcoming your guests.

All of my floor cloths/ oil cloths start with raw canvas.  It's a long multi step process to get to the finished product.  You can see the process in my bio.   The heavy canvas is protected with several coats of polyurethane for years and years of enjoyment.

you will receive simple care and storage tips with your order.

Thank you for stopping by my little shop.

Works in Progress AKA WIP

A rainy day in Florida is just perfect for a day spent in the studio painting.  Two commissions and one new design are on the table today.

My dream is to do this everyday for my full time job.  One day it will happen!!!

Spring items



Bunny Makes a Wish Welcome Banner
17” X 30” hanging banner is perfect for inside or outside decorating.  Its painted surfaces are protected with polyurethane and floor wax to insure weather resistance.   Hang it by its wire in your patio or covered entry way. 
All of my work is created on raw heavy weight canvas.   I prepare the canvas for paint by preshrinking the fabric and then machine sewing a generous hem with mitered corners.  The decorated side will have two to three coats of the base color before the designing process even begins. Sanding is done between coats and finally the design is painted. After paint cures I apply several coats of polyurethane to both sides. This will protect from daily use and moisture. The finishing touch is rubbing on and buffing off some Johnson's floor wax for extra protection.

This is a hand painted design by Willow Hollow Creations by Susie Krichbaum
SOLD
$45.00 plus $15.00 Shipping

Lilac Floor Cloth
22” X 27” Color popping floor cloth is all hand painted and designed by me

Floor cloths are very durable, easy to clean and pet friendly. They are a wonderful way to add more art to your home....art you can walk on. I personally use floor cloths in most rooms of my home, including under the kitchen table. They all still look great! All of my work is created on raw heavy weight canvas.   I prepare the canvas for paint by preshrinking the fabric and then machine sewing a generous hem with mitered corners. The decorated side will have two to three coats of the base color before the designing process even begins. Sanding is done between coats and finally the design is painted. After paint cures I apply several coats of polyurethane to both sides. This will protect from daily use and moisture. The finishing touch is rubbing on and buffing off some Johnson's floor wax for extra protection.

It's only just begun!!!

Third layer of base color.....now we wait.
Waiting for paint to dry, not one of my strengths.  I'm so excited to start designing this piece.

I'm doing a little time travel here, going back to the early 1800's when the coverlet was a useful and decorative possession to lay over the bed.  So instead of a weaving loom, I will weave with my paint brush and create a floorcloth/oyle cloth that mimics this time period. I am always inspired by quilt and coverlet patterns and don't set aside the time to create them.

This is going to be a Primitive Folk Art Trinkets and Treasures Marketplace exclusive.  I'm really honored to have been asked to be April's featured artist, and I hope you all will stop by PFATT on April 10th to check out all the amazing art. There is something for everyone.

Post art show blues


Post art show and my studio area is a mess and so is my house.  Going to take a break from painting to get things back in order.  I'll be back on track by Thursday.

Fall has arrived

Even in SWFL Fall has arrived.  Since we don't see drastic weather changes in Florida for each new season, we have to improvise.  I think we have to be more creative to bring that feeling into our homes.  This is why creating fall items for interior decor is my absolute favorite thing to do.  I could stay decorated in warm colors all year round.

This table runner can be created in any length you would like.  I normally sell the following lengths:

30" X 15"  = $35.00
40" X 15"  = $45.00
50" X 15" =  $55.00
plus shipping

If you are interested or have questions please contact me at Susiewhc@gmail.com

Enjoy Fall how ever you celebrate!

Customer Pictures




Here is a couple of customer pictures from a wholesale order I did.  I love it when you can see that your customer was excited enough to take pictures as soon as they opened the packages.  I hope these floor cloths sell well in her shoppe.
