A New Window









Today we worked on a new display in our front window at Black & Spiro. We wanted it to be fresh and colourful and eye catching. This is our last window before our very exciting Christmas window which will be installed in a few weeks time. We wrapped bits of remnant fabric around birdcages and hung them in front of a gorgeous bright pink and white and black floral fabric. It always makes me feel so happy when we have installed a fresh new window at the shop...

    Your display is really beautiful.
    I love the birdcage and the mix of bright pink + bright yellow.
    Well done!

    I always am inspired to open the door of a shop by it's window display. It's a thrill to plan them, install them and see people's reactions.

    Long live Visual Display!

    Hi, I have been having so much fun following your blog. The textile on the back ground is stunning! What is the repeat and who makes it? It's very Palm Beach, as we say here.

    I LOVE this window! It reminds me of a window display for a paper shop using bird cages and Japanese paper. My son was three at the time and he commented, "Look Mommy, its self contained self control!" I have been pondering that one for a long time. (he's 13 now!) Your display makes me want to try....Love your sense of color!
