Sweet, sweet subversion
I love those plates.
I imply, how will you now not?
Clever and deliciously subversive, are not they?
These plates are the handiwork of an artist who calls herself Trixie Delicious. Aukland, New Zealand-primarily based Trixie sells her wares (and ships international) thru a internet site called Felt. Felt is the Kiwi model of Etsy, a marketplace for a group of independent artists and artisans to sell their work.
Ms. Delicious takes antique plates, platters, saucers and bowls and hand paints her messages of true cheer on them directly. She uses non-poisonous, warmness-fused, ceramic paint. This method that these pleasant, heartwarming iconoclasms will last forever. Imagine the joyous faces around your desk when you serve a Thanksgiving turkey from a Crackwhore Tray. That noise you pay attention is the sound of my coronary heart developing three sizes from the thought by myself!
Many thanks to Leona Gaita and her exceptional blog Gaita Interiors for the end off to these beauties. Spend a while this weekend studying Leona, I like her angle.
