You'll find us in an old country cottage surrounded by a blossoming rose garden in the heart of Los Angeles. We are a husband and wife design team whose creative journey began when our individual artistic inspirations and sense of design came together. Cross our threshold and find yourself bathed in a collection of much loved, weather-worn objects that reflect our appreciation for time gone by. These objects with which we surround ourselves and the beauty of our ever exquisite English roses greatly influence our work. The collection of images you find here on our site are a reflection of our design sensibility; simple and elegant with a flare for the romantic. We so appreciate how many of you have chosen to include our work in your lives, whether you reside in a country cottage, a contemporary New York Loft, or anything in between. A rainy afternoon stroll in the garden, gathering of friends in the kitchen, cozy Sunday mornings enjoying fresh brewed coffee,' and the laughter of our children all are moments that we wish we could make stand still. Our artwork was designed to help you capture these moments as well as help you celebrate the beauty that the movement of time brings to the surrounding objects in your life.
Please note that every beautiful piece of art you find on our shop was originally lovingly created by one of us. Either Daniel and I, Daniel's father Charlie, or one of our two lovely sons Max or Miles. It truly is a family affair.
In 1987, we met at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. In 1990, we graduated and started creating together as a commercial photographic team under the name "ObrienSchridde". We specialized in fashion, movie posters, album covers, and high end advertising. Our clients included the likes deals of Guess Jeans, Visa, Warner Brothers Records, and Capitol Records. In 1994, the Northridge Earthquake disrupted our lives which led to a new phase in our creative journey; the construction and remodeling of homes. So before there was HGTV, we flipped homes in the greater Los Angeles area- 23 at last count. In fact, our own home has been featured in Country Home, Romantic Country, and Country Living numerous times.-just another way that we express our creative nature. Balancing two careers and two small boys, we then decided to make another change and combine two fields of knowledge. What could be a better adventure than using our sense of design to create timeless frames for our favorite images, to capture the magic of the past, the imperfect, and recreate pieces with this beautifully weathered look? So it began... In 2003, we started another grand adventure. Combining all our previous experiences, we decided to design a home accessory line of handmade distressed picture frames known as "ObrienSchridde Designs". We have served over 2,500 stores worldwide and continue to serve stores and retail customers like you directly at our online shop.
Our home centered business used to dance around the schedules of two teen-aged boys, a dog, the gardeners, family, and friends. Now after many bruised knees, broken hearts, and grocery bills through the roof, the boys are gone, the dog's still here, and we are empty nesters. But never fear, Daniel and I are always looking for an open window when a door closes. So now we have opened our doors to AIRBNB and offer a lovely retreat from the crazy, busy world. When you pass through our neck of the woods remember our little retreat "THE NEST". Here is the link so you can check it out: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/28406478?
Now, we have saved the best for last... Here on our ETSY shop you will get to share our journey as we move forward and continue to create art just for you!
