We’ve been talking about summer lines for a while now. The designs have come together and we are so pleased that I just had to give you a teaser. These new designs are 8″ square pillows, a bit smaller than the others, and are a bit “funkier” for today’s modern bride.

Earlier in the year there was much demand for chocolate and tiffany blue themed pillows. We’ve taken this concept and introduced a fun, modern design with a polka-dot backside. Other designs (not pictured) will be a blend of Maihar Design’s signature ribbon-adorned ring pillow and our forthcoming flower wands.

We’ve got your attention now, don’t we?

Below are two of the new designs coming out later this summer.
Pillows and wands…all coming shortly!

Whenever I design anything, be it a room or ring pillow, I always try to incorporate colors, fabrics and products that I love.  I am a firm believer that one should always surround themselves with the things that make them smile…even when it doesn’t  make perfect sense or follow all of the rules.

Designing should be no different.  And, nine times out of ten it actually works! Of course there are exceptions, but on the whole, I find the end results to be unexpected and full of richness and character.

My tried and true rule of thumb was recently put to the test, as I designed a custom ring pillow for a friend’s wedding. When I asked for the color palette, I completely expected to be told a single specific shade of pink.  No no.  Zoe, too, feels strongly about making selections based on love and happiness.

And as I found out…Zoe loves color.

Midnight blue, turquoise, citrus green and pink were my answer.

“Which shade of pink?” I asked.

“All of them,” she replied.

Oh good…we not only managed to expand our color options when I had expected to narrow them, but, I was having a hard time envisioning a 10”square pillow that could calmly combine all of these colors in an aisle worthy manner.

Four hours and many color combinations later, her pillows were designed.  I am ashamed to say that I doubted.  Zoe seems to know exactly what she is doing and I have to say that I am slightly obsessed with her color choices.

I hope I did them justice.

We have four new pillows coming out early January. Since we are so excited, we thought it would be nice to give a “sneak peek” at what is in store for brides in 2009!

In order of appearance: Corie, Debbie, Juliet and Mimi.
