Perfect Christmas Gift
Commissioned as a present for Xmas, A4. A beautiful home in sunny Hawke’s Bay. The magnolia blooms and fence were important to keep in the picture and the recipient was a fan of watercolour so I played up that in the painted sky.
Art for your walls
This client had a classic art deco home in popular Napier. A4. They wanted to bring the outside of their character house inside to their modern interior. That painted watercolour sky is a good example of our bright blue summers in Hawke’s Bay
Loving home life
The passion Julie shows in her love of her home is evident in her blog Studio Home This piece lives and reflects that love for creativity inside and out. A4
Unfortunately, I’m not currently taking stitched home commissions.

Method
The embroidered image will be of the exterior of your house (Worked from photos you have supplied). No large items except for some trees and bushes will be embroidered (e.g. cars, boats, unicorns). Unless these are important, then please let me know. Working with a front-on view of your home is preferred but you can be the director.
Optional: A painted splash of the perfect sky painted behind your home. Painted in a watercolour style.
We will start with a conversation and when details are agreed on a non-refundable deposit of $150 will need to be paid before any design takes place.
Please contact me with the details of your commission. Before the piece is sent to you the final invoice needs to be paid in full.
Commissions are $700.00
In your confirmation email, expect to be asked for photos of your home to start the design process. You can supply a number of these to communicate the feel of your home and accurately show me the colours used.

Examples of previous commissions
Home Scene
Renovated to perfection and the base for ‘Home Scene Journal’ It was a treat to stitch this piece. My favourite part is the cat door.
Remember
Moving across the world means leaving behind your home. This couple brought their memories with them through a home commission and bonus an anniversary gift. Brick and rambling roses were important for this beauty.
A piece of peace
Living rurally means spending a lot more time in your own slice of paradise. Loved and enjoyed.
