Last week we exhibited at Formex, the largest design trade show in Scandinavia. It's a lot of work building your stand and exhibiting for 4 days, but this time it was so worth it! I'm just really really happy with the whole experience, here are some highlights... Three of my silk scarves; 'Sailor Bird', 'Wonderland' and 'Peacock', were selected for the trend exhibition in the main entrance hall. They look really cool I think together with those colourful water hoses and the other products. On the first day there was a press conference to open the show and announce the winner of Formex Formidable 2014 in which my Wonderland scarf was nominated! I didn't win but it was so fun being there and I was very honoured to have been nominated together with 19 very talented designers (from last year's show). This is what my stand looked like, a little universe of patterns! My mum created this "iPhone case tree" to show off my cases, so cute! I got such great feedback from press and buyers, thanks to everyone who visited my stand!

It's starting to look a lot like Christmas folks! To get into the spirit I'm giving away one of this year's bestsellers, my fairytale-inspired tray Wonderland. Perfect for Xmas servings, like coffee and gingerbread biscuits, my personal favourite.

My Kickstarter campaign is finished and it was a success, hooray! The project was fully funded and 52 backers helped the launch of my silk scarf collection become a reality! I'm so happy and excited to move forward from here, the Wonderland Scarf Collection is my favourite line of products that I've created so far, and I can't wait for it to officially launch!
My sweet and super talented friend Messy La is hosting a competition right now to celebrate her 40k Pinterest-followers (yikes!). You can win this limited edition, signed print of my 'Sailor Bird' design, check out her blog for details! (and lots of cute diy's and recipes)
Today I have been thinking about bringing out a new design for iPhone cases. Soon I will start making cases for iPhone 6 and it would be fun to launch a new design. This pattern was inspired by English Beach Hits, I love the colours that are kind of clashing but still look good together, and the retro feel.
My project on Kickstarter is now 33% funded with 2,5 weeks to go, exciting! Below are some super cute items you can get by backing the campaign, the print and iPhone cases for iPhone 6 are only available through Kickstarter so get pledgin'! Choose from one of these mobile phone cases for iPhone 4/5/6. Sailor Bird silk scarf. Sailor Bird signed art print. The Wonderland silk scarf... makes a lovely gift!
I have launched a Kickstarter campaign! The goal is to raise funding to start the production of my new silk scarf collection, so exciting! Backers can pre-order scarves, or select other rewards such as Lisa Edoff Design iPhone cases, cushions or a limited edition print signed by me. Or you can donate a couple of dollars/euros/kronor just to support an up-and-coming hard-working designer :) Check it out and pledge here, you get 30% off all of the scarves, yay!
I have been thinking about making some prints with my designs for a while, last week I finally took some time to create this Sailor Bird poster. I got the test print yesterday and it looks fab! This print will be available to purchase through a special campaign I'm launching soon... exciting times!
The other day I was playing around with my pattern design 'Wonderland' which is of course inspired by Alice in Wonderland. I decided to try a black and white version, looks pretty cool I think!
Yesterday was a fun and exciting day! I photographed this gorgeous gal Emma wearing my silk scarves, she looked amazing in them! We styled some of the photos with a vintage feel, and went down to a small harbour close to where I live to shoot. I also took some more simplistic photos for my website, here's Emma wearing the Sailor Bird scarf, it will available on lisaedoff.se soon! The Wonderland scarf that was nominated for Formex Formidable. Blue Magnolia scarf. Black Magnolia scarf. Photos by me, hair and makeup by Emma Håkansson.
Last week I exhibited at Formex, the largest design trade show in Sweden, and I'm so happy to report that it was a success! This is what my stand looked like, I exhibited in an area called "Next Step", it's for young designers that have exhibited before but are still relatively new in the game. The first day I got an amazing surprise when I arrived at the show, my "Wonderland" silk scarf (below) had been nominated to Formex Formidable 2014! Formex Formidable is a design competition, a jury selects 20 products from over 600 exhibitors, and my scarf was one of them! The scarf was displayed in the entrance hall of the trade show, yay! There are two categories for the Formidable award, one is the jury's pick, and the other one is the people's choice. If you'd like to vote for me and my scarf, click here and choose no 7, then fill in your details at the bottom of the page (if you don't have a company you can just make something up). Here are some of my other products; the magnolia cushions and the pink circus cheese board are available on my website now. The other trays (I love the colour range) and the "Graphic Candy" cushions in the middle are brand new, they will hopefully be available later this year. This elegant lady is Marie-Claire, my mum found her for me at a flea market in France! My Graphic Candy cushions were selected to feature in a trend exhibition showing this autumn's major trend "Soft Nordic". My magnolia tray with some home-made macaroons.
