Do you know what this is?

[Kimberley]

I found a BEAUTIFUL HUGE wall hanging at our Pier One...thing is, it's $800 but man oh man it's gorgeous! ANYWHO, I KNOW that I could make one of these myself.

I've seen them before but don't know if they have a specific name to them...therefore, can't even find a picture to show you. BUT, the art itself looks almost like assorted pattern/color crushed tissue paper that has been glued down. Sometimes, you seee gold or silver thread that is layed down to give accent.

Does ANYONE know what I'm talking about?

I have not a clue what you are talking about, LOL. But, if it's at Pier One I am sure it's absolutely gorgeous! I LOVE that store and most of my home decorations are from there.

If you find a picture I hope you share it with us all. ;)

Can you look for them online, get some different idea's and make your own. It would probably be even nicer if you do it yourself ;)

This is, I tried to look them up on eBay but don't know what they are called.:confused:

You have me curious... What is the paper glued to? Is it on a canvas or more like paper mache? Now I'm going to have to stop in at Pier 1 and check it out.

There is a Pier 1 next door to one of the stops on my agenda today, so I'll go in and look around.

Also, we have a Pier 1 Outlet store about a half hour away that has some great discounts!!

Here is some examples but not quite like what I saw at P1.

Kimberley, Take a picture of it with your cell phone or a friends. I'm sure if you have a creative flare, you can make something to give the same effect, and you would have the satisfaction of making it yourself and saving so much money, rather than the feeling that you spent too much money.

Let us know what you do & if you make something, how it turns out!!
