In our recent Bootcamp class we shared some brilliant analysis from Margo Tantau into doorknobs. A pretty random, niche item you might think. But what this shows you is that there are literally hundreds of opportunities and products out there for your art. Understanding doorknobs could open the door to new possibilities for you (sorry, we couldn’t resist…)
Anyway, we thought we’d share a little peek into the info we posted in Bootcamp….
Aren’t these knobs just delicious? They incorporate so many subtle techniques and finishes, as well as many interesting combinations. They are like little wonderful gems of ideas…miniature product, each and every one. Here’s a quick key so you can practice recognizing what each is made of! Most of the material is glued or screwed into a metal base that has standard threading to be able to be used as a knob or handle. Great options and detail. Most of these are made in India. —Margo Tantau
If you want the full force of Margo’s brilliance and deep knowledge of the Home Décor market, be sure to sign up for ‘MATS: Creating Collections for Home Décor’ – class started yesterday but you can still squeeze in if you are quick. This will be the last time we will run this course in 2016.
Happy creating!
