Floor Cushions


Large floor cushions 70cm x 70cm - (standard size pads can be found at John Lewis and online!). I will be adding these to my website soon hopefully. Floor cushions are great espeically if you have guests around or next to a low coffee table and on a rug. We have a couple in our sitting room and our daughters love lying on them and need I say? So does the dog!

Oak cushions & Daisy my dog



My little Daisy dog loves it when I put new cushions out on our sofa. These are my Oak cushions in hot pink and canary yellow on an indigo background. I had an interesting time putting my new designs together. After talking to a friend of mine who was looking to buy some cushions for her new home and hearing her thoughts, I decided to add a few brighter and bolder designs to the new cushion covers and this one, is one of my favourites - and I'm someone who prefers muted colours! It definitely adds colour to the white walls in our north facing sitting room and our vintage brown sofa.

Website and new cushion covers

This week, I have been working on giving my website www.kiranravilious.com a little bit of an update. I've done the designs and hopefully, it'll be ready very soon.

I also wanted to share some of my new cushion cover designs for 2014. The online flip book is here: http://www.flipsnack.com/9C858BC7C6F/fdp82mmn

Here are a few! I'm hoping to have them up on my website next week!

I'm very pleased (and so is my dog Daisy!! :P) to have a little feature in the February issue of Country Living Magazine (UK). They've started a new section the magazine titled Country in the City, featuring artists/designers etc. who live in the city but are inspired by the countryside.

The first day of 2014

Hello everyone and hope you're having a good start to 2014. I can't say I've done very much today and the highlight of my day has been the lie-in that I had as a result of us being invited to two new year's eve parties yesterday which completely knackered the kids out! 

I sincerely hope the new year is a good one for everyone. I promise to try and blog more than once a year! Look forward to interacting with those who read my blog and to sharing some of my new work on here soon! - kiran
