Here is a new home trend that’s exploring new ground: Pioneer Chic! There’s the wave of American-based artisans who are transforming formerly fundamental objects, like arrows and teepees, into decorative pieces of art, showcasing their appreciation (and sometimes feeling of humor) for these once unconsidered objects. Lucky you, giving in to this bubbling design trend won’t lead you down uncharted territory, but they will give your own indoor space a certain je ne sais quoi-in a good way!
Inspired through the spirit of childhood glee, a fluorescent slingshot by the artist Adam Grey is electrifying enough to stand alone as the main attraction atop a pile of publications on your coffee table.
We’ll be the first to admit we’re suckers for any perfectly-tailored flower arrangement, but why not swap out those traditional fresh blooms along with something a little more eclectic like these hand-painted arrows from Mineral & Matter as well as thread-wrapped beauties from Fredericks and Mae. They’re as vibrant as any organic bud, and longer lasting.
Looking for some unexpected wall decor? Create a large By with a pair of handcrafted paddles from Norquay Co or line them upward horizontally along the wall. If you’re living water-side, you’re in luck! Fully functional, you could make them right off the wall and straight into the water. (These Ralph Lauren-approved oars are on display in the 5th Avenue store, so swing by for a look if you’re in the NYC area. )
For the little ones, Wolfum’s canvas teepee turns into a retreat that can be as zen or zany as they want to make it. And do not forget about the kitties! These adorable hand-printed Cat Tipi’s are the perfect resting floor for your favorite feline companion.
