We started Casa Amarosa, with the simple idea of
selling Premium Home Decor Products
without a background in the design, manufacture or sale of any of these
products. It started as a passion project, and still remains so, where we
wanted to make the best decorative pillows, throws and every home product that
I could add. However, as soon as we started on this adventure, it became clear
to me that the process of designing and manufacturing wholesale home decor products would never become an easy or mundane
task.
Getting Started
The process begins for us by recognizing wholesale home décor trends, whether it
is for wholesale blankets and throws or wall art. We constantly scour industry
related websites, trend magazines, and every source of information that
mentions any of our products. This is a never ending process as there is always
some new article about the ‘Best Places to Buy Wholesale Home Décor’ or a new
website that does drop ship throws like us. Nevertheless, the whole team is
constantly sifting through this information to find the nuggets of gold that
are guiding the industry trends.
Designing Process
The next step is to actually start designing the
products using new fabric ideas or the wholesale fabrics stored in our
warehouses. This step happens at least twice a year to reflect the major
changes taking place between the different seasons.
The design room is a flurry of activity as
different elements are constantly being tested with the wholesale fabrics,
kitchen aprons, accent pillows and the others in our menagerie of products. To
finally finish the design of a product and say with conviction that “Everybody
will love this throw as much as me” is not an easy step to take. There is always a seed of doubt that maybe an
extra tassel is what will make the product the hottest new item. However, the
final decision must be taken and the final stich must be made with a confidence
that shows to the customers.
A sketch of the finished design envisioned by the
textile designer is made for all the final products. The designer's deep
understanding of the technical aspects of production helps our artisans in
visualizing the end product.
Finishing Touches
The final step is sampling. If there are any
issues in the design or if the manufacturing of such a design is infeasible,
they will be spotted during this step. We might have what seems like the best
idea of Wholesale Throws and Pillow Covers but the shortcomings of even the best idea will become abundantly
clear when a technical issue forces us to abandon it.
This whole design process may be complicated,
long and never ending but it is nonetheless fulfilling and keeps our creativity
satiated enough to keep coming back for more.
