Fresh.....

Designers Guild has some new fresh and lovely products that are perfect for your summer home.

Jill Crawford is a LA based interior designer and graphic artist. (Read more here.) Her work does not just end with redoing spaces. She has a talent for creating gorgeous murals. Her murals started a number of years ago when she had a short-term loft rental in Tribeca (NYC). She had these massive white walls and didn't want to spend a fortune on art since she would be moving out in 6 months, so she painted the murals directly on the walls. Then other people started wanting them too. All of her murals are painted, but there are different techniques. She currently working up wallpaper designs based on the murals, which will be available onWallpapers To Go sometime in the next few months. Amazing work Jill!!!!!
