ArtL8dY meets Vera

I browse Anthropologie the way some people browse museums. So today I had a chance to visit the store in Houston for inspiration. While roaming the displays and noticing all the fabric patterns and accessories, I was drawn to this book. How come I didn't know about Vera until today? I ordered the book and can't wait till it arrives.

Inspired by Vera Neumann

If you are into painterly florals or images inspired by exotic travel locations, then you must have seen a Vera creation. She is most remembered for her scarves. (If you find one in a thrift store, grab it!) From 1942 to 1993 she designed everything from fabric, wallpaper, bedding, and kitchen items. I remember my mom having a set of her kitchen place mats.
I blogged about this book already. Lots of eye candy for those of us into color and that painterly look.
