Distressed, vintage style glass clock: Tulipes Francais

I finally got around to designing the kind of clock I’ve been wanting for our foyer–an authentic vintage French stylized clock with a beautiful floral design, banked with delicate vintage scrolls and flourishes. We don’t have a product photo yet, but this is the artwork which will be printed on our newly designed 12″ round glass wall clock. This is a Limited Edition clock, exclusive to Color Bakery. The artwork is adapted from an actual vintage French clock. This is a *perfect* gift for Mother’s Day.

Vintage art, vintage wine, vintage tile.

Wine and grapes. Classic vintage themes for the home, and not just for the kitchen.

Here are five art pieces–made especially for tile printing— with a distinctive “vintage” flavor, both in style and subject–they celebrate wine. To make them, I used old vintage fruit images and adapted them in a custom pastiche.

Since many of our customers use tiles for kitchen backsplashes, they especially enjoy a wine theme–which goes with everything, even modern kitchens. These tiles look especially beautiful printed on tumbled stone (porcelain or marble), but they also work surprisingly well on glass tiles.  They also make great decorative accents, too, such as single tiles for coaster sets, or accent tiles in countertops, and a framed wall arrangement is would be fabulous for this vintage wine series as well. Oh, and don’t forget trivets!

You may purchase these art pieces on any of our products, and we will custom make them for you. To order any of these images on any of our products, just type the image name in the blank field (i.e., “merlot”, “chardonnay”, etc). If you have any questions, please post to me here or contact us via email.

Blood Red Gypsy Moon.

There’s something about a blood-red moon. The moon is my confidante, my lover. “Moon” is the first word I ever uttered, choosing it over the requisite “da-da”.  This original digital piece is fiery when printed on glass.

On the Mid-Autumn night when the bright moon sheds light over the Miao villages, after a family gathering in the house, every household will come to a vacant field in the mountain forest to sing and dance under the moon.

According to a legend of Miao ethnic group, the moon was a simple and honest young man who was hardworking and brave. A beautiful lady named Shui Qing fell in love with him despite of proposals made by 99 young men from 99 states. After trials given by the sun, she finally tied the knot with the moon and lived happily ever after. In order to remember their love, every generation of Miao minority will dance under the moon, referring to the custom as “Tiao Yue”, or moon dance. The unmarried men and women will look for their love during the dance. Once found, they will express their feelings and vow that their love will stay pure and last like the happiness between the couple – Shui Qing and the moon.

Why can’t I show off this glass tray?

You won’t mind, hopefully, if I show you a tray that we just produced that came out *really* nice.

In case you didn’t know, we can take any image from Vintage Art Download or Vintage Mural and print it on any one of our beautiful products–from glass tiles to clocks to trays to tote bags.

This is an art pastiche I created using old, vintage images. We then printed it on a glass tile mural, and hand-adhered it to one of our newest items–a wooden serving tray with a black satin matte finish. For more information about the tray, click the image. The customer gave it as a wedding gift to her best friend, who loved it.
