For Christmas, my lovely bf bought me a panel of Marimekko’s “Pelimanni” by Iiro A. Ahokas (2008). It’s huge and I couldn’t find a large enough, affordable canvas to staple it to. $80 and I would’ve lost about a foot of the design. So, I’ve been patiently waiting for a month and a half for my dad to make a reinforced wooden panel. He finally got it done and last night, we had the not-so-fun task of ironing the fabric, taping it juuuuust right, stapling it with a jamming ancient staple gun on loan from my dad, getting the hanging wire on the hooks, and picking the perfect spot. It’s in our bedroom now and I love love love it!
