5 out of 5 starsI had two scoops made to my specifications and Peter was amazing to work with. He was so accommodating and his work is just stunning. I’m so impressed and in love with my flour and sugar scoops. I would highly recommend this little shop. Peter was quick to respond and his desire to make it perfect was beyond expectations. I love my final product and can’t say enough good things about their merchandise and customer service! Thanks for being awesome.

5 out of 5 starsI love this dragonfly. She, yes, she will have a place of honor in amongst the various snow covered pots this winter and the bird bath in the spring.
And, wow, a gift!
I love your work. My dad would have enjoyed talking with you about your enthusiasm in what you do.
In much appreciation,

Creative Souls
About a decade ago, life-long costume designer and fabric artist Catherine Ione decided to reduce some of her inventory by re-covering every pillow in our home, the Casa del Campo. As the throw pillows began to stack up, I (Peter, her husband) proclaimed, "Gee honey, it's starting to look like a Flop House around here". Flop House Creations had begun.
Over the years we have developed as creative partners in this endeavor, Catherine with fabric, myself with a variety of media--concrete, reclaimed wood, more recently copper and steel--to forge (quite literally) a home-spun business of functional artwork that all features one key ingredient--LOVE--that is added to everything that we do.
When you purchase a product from Flop House Creations, whether it be an eco-botanically dyed ladies top from Catherine or a coal-forged, steel-handled, copper-bladed kitchen utensil from Peter, you are receiving the cumulative energies of two people who have spent long lives trying to stay in the sunshine of the spirit.
Thank you for visiting our shop, and enjoy!
