Hey there! I’m Poppy, the tufting and textile artist behind Studio Poppies. If you’ve been following along on Instagram, you already know that I’m all about bringing a pop of color and a touch of whimsy into the world of textile art. From tufted rugs to playful wall hangings, my creations are all about spreading joy and celebrating creativity.
Renovating My Creative Space
Lately, I’ve been on a bit of a renovation adventure with my studio space, and I’m so excited to share it with you! What started as a cozy, slightly chaotic nook has been slowly transforming into a brighter, cleaner, and more organized studio—a place that truly reflects my love for color and creativity. It’s almost finished, and I can’t wait to start creating in a space that feels just right for all the tufting magic to happen.
My Love for Tufting
Tufting is my happy place. There’s something incredibly satisfying about turning a pile of yarn into something fun, tactile, and totally unique. Whether I’m working on a bold, colorful rug or a quirky decor piece, I love experimenting with different textures and hues. For me, it’s all about making pieces that not only look good but also bring a bit of joy into everyday spaces.
Behind the Scenes
One of my favorite parts of sharing my work online is giving you all a peek behind the scenes. Whether it’s showing the messier parts of my creative process or the little victories along the way, I love connecting with you through the ups and downs of making art. It’s not always perfect, but that’s what makes it fun, right? Every tufted piece is a little adventure in itself, and I’m so glad you’re here to share it with me.
Sharing the Love of Tufting at Tuftlab Amsterdam
When I’m not busy in my own studio, you can find me at Tuftlab Amsterdam, where I love teaching tufting workshops! It’s such a joy to guide others through the tufting process and see their creativity come to life. Whether you’re a complete beginner or someone looking to refine your skills, these workshops are a fantastic way to dive into the world of tufting and have some fun with yarn and color. I always leave these sessions feeling inspired by the amazing things people create.
Let’s Build a Colorful Community
More than anything, I want Studio Poppies to be a place where we can all celebrate creativity. Whether you’re an artist, a maker, or someone who just loves a good splash of color, I hope my work brings a smile to your face. I love hearing about your own projects, seeing how you incorporate color into your life, and building a community that’s all about embracing the joy of making.
Come Along for the Journey
With the studio renovation nearly complete, I’m excited to dive into new projects and share even more tufting goodness with you all. Thank you for being part of this journey—I can’t wait to see where it takes us next! If you’re new here, welcome to Studio Poppies. I hope you’ll stick around, get inspired, and maybe even try a little tufting yourself!
