Many times I've come across articles about designers which insinuate as much! So lovely crochet cushions are not in their homes, but apparently they should be in ours - or their makes are banned from their own living spaces but live in their craft rooms only because that is where the 'quirkiness' which is apparently handmade to some people lives. <br /><br />I like to see designers that see practical, or artistic merit in their own designs and do promote them in everyday use. I think it was a well known vintage-look designer who said she doesn't use her own flowery stuff as she likes more streamlined design in her home; it seemed quite disdainful of her own customers actually. Also remember a full time designer of all sorts of stuff who said they had no use for it personally and did not craft for themselves and it was just 'work'. I thought that was sad as her work is lovely. It did put me off though (reminds me a bit of Gerald Ratner and what he said about the jewellery his shop sold.)<br /><br />SaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
