Fabulous Florence – Signature Prints & Florence Broadhurst

Recommendations

Info

This is a three colour design being printed on 30 meters of fabric. Fabric screens are a lot wider than wallpaper screens, this ensures that the print covers the standard width of a roll of fabric. Printing on fabric is a two person job which involves one person standing on either side of the table. Ink is passed across the screen with a squeegee just like in wallpaper printing. Although in this case the squeegee is pushed through from person to person at a central point on the screen. Here it is really important that both persons apply the same amount of pressure onto the screen, both keep the squeegee at the same angle and follow through when passing or receiving to the other. This ensures that the print has a consistent and even coverage on both sides of the fabric.

Fabulous Florence – Living with Broadhurst After yesterday’s wonderful glimpse behind the scenes at Signature Prints, today Helen shares some of her favorite projects using Florence Broadhurst’s designs! Suddenly I feel the urge to wallpaper… – Jenny x So after so much talking yesterday, I thought I would show you some of my favorite prints, and some of the great ways they have been used. We are really pleased that Broadhurst’s prints are popping up everywhere, being used just as much now as they were during the time of their creation. These are timeless designs which still look amazing 50 years after their debut. Above left is a chair which was re-upholstered by the lovely Emma who is part of our sales team at our Signature Prints showroom. The design shown here is the fun, fashion favorite Aubrey. To the right is an image from Weego Home in the USA. This is the Egrets, usually a two colour print used beautifully in monotone contrasts this works elegantly against the mustard yellow. The Egrets display unusual character and stature. Each of the standing birds is 40 cm tall.
