home: made [ hand painted tableware ]

There are some gorgeous hand painted items available at the moment, from floral plates to polka dot mugs. The idea is so simple it’s worth giving it a go yourself.

Get hold of some basic white tableware [ try Ikea ] and then decide what look you want to achieve. Go monochrome and use a black pen to create a dot or stripe effect, or bring colour using paints [ dishwasher safe ] to make swirls, floral designs or a geometric pattern. Be as creative as you want, whatever works within your home.

[ Head to ebay for pens and paints ]

Below are some tutorials to give you ideas.

Established at the end of 2014 TPRintShop is the brand created by Tom Rogers, featuring digital prints of London and city landmarks. With a creative background in design and a passion architecture, photography and art Tom started taking photos in and around London and had the idea of creating something a bit different. The stripped back images injected with pops of colour create a modern interpretation of a standard photo.

The prints are available in A6 and A4 with each one mounted in white. [ other sizes available on request ].
TPRintShop is currently selling on etsy.com / you can also keep up to date on Instagram.
