ARTIST INFO

Hello, my name is Don Thomas, I've been designing and handcrafting fine miniature scaled rugs and wall hangings professionally now for over three years, but my passion and love for miniatures and rugs started long before that. I design my miniature rugs and wall hangings for that special setting or to be framed as life size wall art. I create rug designs that are original as well as adapted from earlier styles, ranging from the primitive to the contemporary look. Individually they are all hand crafted and sewn to replicate the look and feel of either knotted, hooked or woven rugs, each, one of a kind. My rugs contain thousands upon thousands of stitches. I use natural and some man made fibers. Keeping my rugs within an exceptionally fine miniature scale, they're designed with the discriminating collector in mind. My miniature rugs are not stiff or bulky but instead will drape and are precisely scaled for the true realist. I've created special processes, which I use in hand crafting these detailed pieces to reflect my passion and love for miniatures and rugs as art forms. Thus, these fine miniature rugs are especially suited to be framed individually and hung as life size wall art. I will gladly accept custom work. Please feel free to visit my website for more detailed information at www.donthomasdesigns.com . I may also be reached at 818-292-7956 for orders or any questions you may have. Look forward to hearing from you!
