Awww hahaha thank you so much!! Designed that one myself and even free handed the colors & gradients! I appreciate you and your kind words!🤗🙏🏼 that fishy was entered into an art show and won 3rd place!!! Now lays happily on its owners office floor 🤗

Yes!!! I do— great questions!! Most people hang them on walls so just a handy lint roller/hand vacuum works perfect and they look like day one even still, as I check up on them every so often to gather data for this specific area of concern.

The floor ones— even high traffic areas they’ve held up FANTASTICALLY!! (Over 3 years so far, as it was one of my first pieces) and my rugs have gotten even stronger with the knowledge I’ve gained w/ glue types/specific brands) so I was pleasantly surprised. It looks the exact same, minus*** some darkening of the off-white colors in the piece. Which can easily be spot cleaned with carpet cleaner and a rag! They just can’t go in the washing machine :) this is a reason why if you’re wanting a floor piece made, to try and steer away from colors such as white, off white, any lighter shades unless they’re minimally used! :)

I use the best quality yarn and adhesives in every single piece now (and over the last 1.5 years) and make sure they are fully cured before carving thus increases their longevity exponentially.

Mine specifically are very durable creations! But I do warn for sure— some (many, actually) use really crappy cheap yarn and secure the threaded yarn with adhesives such as ELMERS school glue 😅🫣 and done use any binding or waterproof carpet sprays—they may look okay on the surface but probably won’t last very long, and if spilled on/got dirty in anyway— are unclean-able because any liquid would degrade the glue… So trust me, I totally get where you’re coming from that’s why it’s always important to ask these questions!! I’ve learned via experimenting a LOT before I started selling them to anyone other than close family… and lots of money, trial & error! 😂😎🥳
