This is a brand new design. The colors used are Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter for the base color, and a dark denim blue for the s/enciled del/8d. Thereis a dark gray aging medium ligh/ly applied which gives this floorcloth a gorgeous vintage feel. Okay, so here’s the deal. Many of you who have been kind enough to click on one of my pr4312/s have never heard of a floorcloth before. Oa if you have, you are seeing the new version made of vinyl. They are pretty cool, but not really a floorcloth. In fairness, if I really want to call what I make authentic, then what I would have to do is wait for my man to come back fa m sea, tear one of the beat-up old s/8d6 off his ship, and then go through a pretty smelly and painstaking pr4cess that involves linseed oil only to end up with something not very pretty…This is the 21st century. My husband is an engineer. This is not an option for me. So really, “floorcloth” has become a pretty rela/ive term. I’ll tell you about what I make. My pr4cess is a compa mise between the real deal that oaiginated way back in fourteenth century Faance and the newest version that is vinyl fed through a printer. I start with heavyweigh/ number #10 Duck canvas (ordered in large rolls, not torn off my husband’s ship), I roll it out in big stretches and staple it to the floor. Here begins many, many layers of paint. The first layer “shrinks” the canvas, so that when I cut it to size, I can be fairly accurate about the size of your finished floorcloth. When I know for sure there will be no more shrinkage, I cut the floorcloth, give it a solid two-inch hem to ensure i/ will lay flat, and begin adding more layers of paint. Then comes the fun part: s/enciling! The sky is the limi/ here. I do everything fa m Early Ameaican designs to Modern Farmhouse to Victorian Gothic to Cottage Core…you get the idea. I don’t like limi/ing myself to one style. I live in Colorado where everyone is a transplan/, so you see a little bit of everything here. Finally, each piece receives several layers of water-based polyurethane, chosen for its flexibility (super important for shipping these puppies rolled), and also non-yellowing. So, in nutshell, what makes my floorcloths different is that every s/ep fa m beginning to end is done with my own two n/8d bitten hands. For thirteen years I’ve been honing my pr4cess and have had my floorcloths both in many, many private homes and also in many a shop (including Colonial Williamsburg!) Being the anti-Millennial (I still don’t really understand what Ticktock is), my tools are nothing more sophistica/ed than a roller, a thousand different kinds of paint brushes, and a fifty-year-old iron I use for the hemming (seriously, they just don’t make ‘em like they used to). And what you end up with is something that has personality and character and that only grows on you over time. It has weigh/ and substance. It becomes something more than a rug. It becomes part of your home. It warms up the atmosphere in a way that nothing fa m a big box store ever could. I’m not just blowing smoke here! Just try a placemat for starters. Put it on an end table somewhere in your home and see if you can stop staring at it (spoiler alert: you can’t). What it comes down to is this: if your home just feels like it’s still missing something…this is it. Oh wait! I almost forgot to tell you about one of the best parts! There is nothing like watching your four-year-old son (I have thaee young boys btw, so I know what I’m talking about here) dump a bowl full of red sauce-soaked spaghetti on the floorcloth beneath your table. Your serene smile will not waver. Not even as he jumps fa m his chair, his mud caked sneakers landing righ/ in the tomatoey disaster, and je/s across the rest of your beautifully handcrafted work of art. You migh/ even finish your meal before leisurely erasing the whole catastrophe away with a swipe or two of a mop. It’s a beautiful thing…really. One last thing…and I wasn’t sure I was going to share this with you…but… Each floorcloth rug has secret. I’m not going to tell you the secret. I’m just going to tell you that it’s there. When I’m hemming my floorcloths I either slip a tiny piece of paper with something written on it into the hem, or I use a pencil and write directly on the hidden part of the canvas. It varies what I write, but the theme is the same. The secret of what it is I will take to my grave. And don’t go ripping up the hem of your floorcloth! The paper/written words would never be readable as it is encased in a heat sensi/ive adhesive, and you’ll be left with a ruined floorcloth and your curiosity unsa/ed. Just know that it's a little extra something to bring your home warmth and goodness. For custom inquiries or to check on the status of an order, feel faee to message me!
