Where to Ski And Snowboard - Illustrator launches ski-themed fabric

Illustrator launches ski-themed fabric

3rd May 2022, by Abi Butcher

The ski-themed fabrics and wallpapers are designed by former ski instructor Kim Kay

A range of ski-themed fabrics and wallpapers have been launched by author and illustrator Kimberley Kay.

The range of 18 designs include snowflakes, ski equipment, ski lifts, mountain peaks and corduroy pistes — all ideal for keeping the ski season alive.

Kim, a former ski racer and instructor and author and illustrator of a book Ski A to Z, hopes the fabrics and wallpaper will appeal to anyone furnishing a chalet, ski apartment or even a snow-themed room at home.

She said: “Much ski-themed home décor is a nostalgic style with imagery and icons from the early days of leisure skiing. My designs bring in modern icons, imagery and equipment, to provide the opportunity to furnish in a more modern alpine style.

The designs are available to be printed on demand on a range of fabrics from sheer chiffons, through a range of cottons, right through to upholstery linens and cosy velvets. The designs can also be bought on rolls of wallpaper, pre-pasted, or self-adhesive through to grasscloth wallpapers. Kim has mocked up a number of scenes to show how she envisages the designs may be used.

The collection is hosted by print-on-demand company Spoonflower, and for a limited period, there is 25% off the top-selling fabric until Sunday 8 May.
