“Plants and the sense of growth was a very strong inspiration for me”-Lucienne Day
Today’s post starts out with a quote from one of my favorite designers, Lucienne Day. With this quote in mind, I have put together a Look Book of some of her designs that definitely have a nature and growth influence.
I have to revisit Calyx, her breakout design first published in 1951

I have four posts about Lucienne Day. My first post, which is a good introduction to her can be found here. The second post covers work that she created in orange. The last post talks about her pure non-objective works.
Retiring after thirty-two years as a K-12 visual arts teacher, Terri Gardner now devotes time to a long and early interest: fashion. With her blog, MeadowTree Style, Terri advocates for developing a personal and creative style. She encourages finding fashion in ethical ways such as shopping at consignment/thrift shops, creating it yourself, as well as supporting local designers.
Her second blog, Time for Poodles and Friends, advocates for rescued animals.
Her interests dating from childhood led to her sense of fashion, doing, and living. These interests include sewing, spinning yarn, knitting, design, and giving space for animals. She lives on a small Missouri farm with her husband, a large garden, and several animals including chickens and ducks, dogs and cats, and Shetland sheep and Alpacas. For her beloved rescued dogs, Terri created dog accessories and made them available under the label Sophia & Niko–Exclusive Design for the Distinctive Dog.
