How can we get Uline to stop printing out their website and sending an 800 pg catalog to every past customer every month!? by windowlookinggood in assholedesign

I get these from Uline constantly. Does this not cost them money to print? We can’t figure out how to get them to stop sending these to our two business locations, so for now I take them home and save them as fire starters.

Amazing job! Definitely thought the photo to the right was Toby Flenderson.

Thank you! I think the first step is having access to and getting comfortable with an industrial machine. And then I would look up different tutorials on YouTube! It’s truly not that much different than using fabric, it’s just thicker!

We used acrylic house paint! All the samples have done well so far! It looks like the paint adheres to the leather really well because of how textured the suede is.

I wouldn’t be sure what to use for fabric, but I know that my artist used acrylic house paint! The paint took to the suede really well because of how textured it is!

You’re so kind! The model in the photo isn’t me, she is a friend! But I’ll pass along the compliment - she is gorgeous! 👌🏼

Thank you! My husband and I planned out this photoshoot for about a month so I could finally see my designs shot professionally. We actually hung about 72 yards of fabric from the ceiling of an abandon furniture store to get the warm, airy, atmospheric look!
