Little Pumpkin on Beige Gingham Canvas Print

'Too safe,' said nobody standing in front of warm orange-brown. The pumpkin sits on a beige gingham check, and the whole thing carries more weight on a wall than it does on paper. Put it up and a plain kitchen wall stops being blank space — the check gives the room a pattern to hold onto, and the warm brown picks up wood, cane and terracotta already in the room. It hangs happily above a sideboard, between kitchen cupboards, or on a hallway wall you pass twenty times a day. Pair it with cream ceramics, checked cotton and painted cabinetry. Don't crowd it with other busy patterns — one check per wall is plenty. On canvas the painted surface reads softer and warmer from across the room.
