Warbreck Garden Centre in Ormskirk was the lucky winner of Lifetime Brands’ competition celebrating its collaboration with UK artists Tipperleyhill.
The collaboration has seen Lifetime Brands create a complete gifting range under its leading dine brand, Mikasa, and the prize on offer was a bespoke window mural hand painted by the Tipperleyhill artists themselves.
Tipperleyhill are two UK-based artists, Abi and Roz, who work together to create animal illustrations. Abi paints the animals and Roz adds the colourful patterns which feature on the Mikasa x Tipperleyhill mugs and hydration bottles.
Tipperleyhill artist Roz commented: “Such a fun day painting at gorgeous Warbreck Garden Centre! The in-store team gave me a lovely loose brief of ‘Spring flowers in pinks, greens and blues’. Eight metres of glass over two floors to paint on – literally heaven!”
“Thank you so so much to you all for this wonderful opportunity. The window looks beautiful, bright and cheery! It is a stunning addition to the garden centre as we transition into Spring!” says Laura Bruce, Warbreck Garden Centre buyer & marketing manager.
Claire Budgen, commercial & marketing director, added: “It’s safe to say the window has been given the Mikasa x Tipperleyhill wow factor! To be able to see the unmistakable floral pattern and colours, which are a signature part of the collaboration, come to life front and centre in one of our independent customers’ stores is brilliant.”
