Hi Jeanine and Bryan,
Nice meeting you both in Chicago and I am already utilizing your book! You stated I could contact you to find out where to purchase the aphrochic silhouette pillows. Please tell me where I can purchase.
Thanks!
Jewel
Hi Jewel! Yes, you can purchase the pillow directly through us. If you are interested in making a purchase, please email us at info(at)aphrochic.com and we’ll send you further information. It was so nice to meet you!
Hi Jeanine and Bryan,
We met at the Room & Board event this Summer, in Chicago, via Yvette. I am still interested in the Elisa Mazzone prints that you feature. I did go to her site directly, but it does not offer the opportunity to purchase. Are these for sale via another site, vendor…etc?
Thank you again for the fabulous inspiration and kindness!
Cheers!
Hello! It was so great meeting you. The prints were by Leigh Viner. You can find her store on etsy. All of the prints that were featured at the event are available for sale on her site. Have fun decorating!
Love the new blog website. Awesome!!
OMG!! Love your blog. Stumbled upon it when I visited Apartment Therapy’s Website. I’m a Philly girl and sorry I didn’t know about you guys when you were here. Good luck in Brooklyn and keep posting great stuff!
Thank you for visiting! Definitely stop by again for more inspired design.
Love your website and have your Remix book on order! Am wondering where I can purchase your Rwanda wallpaper though? I can’t find it anywhere
Hi Amy. We know you’ll enjoy REMIX! Please send us an email regarding the wallpaper.
