✨ THE SECRET BEHIND THE CUTOUT ✨

Did you notice the cutouts in last week's staircase post? Ever wonder why early 20th-century Arts & Crafts design features those iconic spade, cross, or diamond cutouts? 🤔👇

Look closely at this stunning quarter-sawn oak piece. Those spade-shaped cutouts aren’t just a random style choice. Pioneers of the movement used these geometric shapes to celebrate three core ideas:

🌱 Stylized Nature: Turning complex organic plants and leaves into clean, simple geometry.
🏰 Medieval Roots: Nodding to the hand-forged, honest construction of old Gothic architecture.
✋ The Human Touch: Proving a real artisan carved and finished the piece—not a mindless factory machine.

Paired with that classic William Morris backdrop, it’s a great example of how functional furniture can double as a work of art. 🛠️🎨

💬 What's your favorite detail of this piece? The rich oak grain or the patterned backdrop? Let us know below!

Today’s highlights the timeless, understated beauty of Arts and Crafts design. While William Morris championed the movement in Britain, its philosophy quickly crossed the Atlantic. The style reached its peak popularity in America between 1900 and 1915—right when our very own chapel was built in 1909.

Is there anything more iconic than William Morris’s Strawberry Thief? 🍓 For our second installment of Morris Monday I'm sharing this timeless pattern used in the primary bathroom and dressing room. The chocolate brown color way worked beautifully with the vintage 1970's tile! I repeated the pattern in neutral tones on the bed. Do you have a favorite classic print?

Did you know our chapel is named after this manor house in England? Kelmscott Manor was the home of artist and author William Morris.Two years ago I was able to tour his home and was amused to find a miniature Morris tucked into the bookcase. This prompted a hunt for my own mini Morris and the start of Morris Mondays! He's checking out his wallpaper design "Pure Lodden" in the guest quarters at our place. I think he likes it!
