So wild are the flowers...........


$65.00
This 22" X 27"  Floor cloth is all hand painted with a unique crackle background and pretty little flowers stretching their stems.  There is so much texture in this piece and fits with earthy tones just perfectly. (Note: The name of the business and artist are a watermark and will not be present on your floor cloth)

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!

I use a heavy weight canvas that I prepare for paint by preshrinking the fabric and hemming with mitered corners.  These floor cloths lay flat.

I prime both sides of floor cloth and add two coats of base color to decorated side.  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 moisture and traffic.

You will receive care and installation instructions with your order.

Thank you for stopping,

This is a "made to order" product, please allow time for production and shipping.

Quilts for the floor?


I wish the photos were better, but this is a floor cloth I created sometime ago.  It is with one of my customers now, but it's one of my favorites.  I designed this one shortly after a dear family friend gave me a few of her quilts she collected before she passed away.  I always thought I would create a floor cloth quilt line in her honor and I still may do so.
I would love to know what you think.....feedback is oh so good.

Snowman Family Floor Cloth


Snowman Family Floor Cloth
22” X 27”
This floor cloth is one of my holiday favorites.  A happy family stringing lights on feather trees.
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.
$65.00 plus $10.00 Shipping

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.

TGIF from Sunny HOT Florida


I'll start out by saying I'm sorry to all the people to the north that are buried in the snow.  We here in Florida have our air conditioners on and are not happy about it.  I miss the windows open with a cool breeze.   But we live in Florida and summer is already here.

This is a hand painted floor cloth.  Big bold sunflower to bring some Florida sunshine your way.

22" X 27"   Ready to ship
 $45.00 plus shipping.

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.

Don't be afraid of a floor cloth!




Floor cloths are such a hard thing to get people to buy into.  They worry about walking on them! Well I can tell you that I have been using my floor cloths in my home for many years and they are super durable.  They add a burst of color to your room, easy to maintain and hard to ruin.  

I am so happy to say that I just received a large order for floor cloths today.  So happy about this.  They will be making a journey to an Rhode Island Primitive Shoppe.
