Kansas City native Grace Knott spent more than 20 years of her career in New York City as a stylist. Her list of clients was long and included Ralph Lauren Home, Saks Fifth Avenue, and The Food Network.
When the pandemic struck, the density and sudden isolation of the city made her yearn for space, a yard and, as it turns out, a new career. Knott hung up her props and dug out her scissors and glue and began to decoupage.
The result is a beautiful collection of plates, bell jars, switch-plate covers, and lamps in styles that range from geometric to florals, and a new company—iBlink—that she runs out of her home.
“For me, decoupage is a way to blend the past and present, and to create something that is both timeless and contemporary,” Knott says.
You can find her creations at iblinkart.com and area retailers.
