Maali Decor

I'm going to talk a little bit about the Decor of Maali Store... we were thinking of a way to make it different; unique, without it been so obvious, so we went for the antiquated look... a touch of Shabby Chiciness and decided to stir it all up with our inspirations... Music: that's where the old vinyl records fit in... The paintings: the one of the two girls, hangs just at the corner of the children's section; the skirt is an old pleated skirt; and the painting with the 3 African pots was painted by our cousin. There is also a frame with a free me Maali T, A kiddie paw Maali T, and an old Arsenal Jersey, because Alheri is a fan.

Then the Colours: The ceiling is green, the walls n interiors, brown and the floor orangey... Also sitting between two tables draped with African Nok Terracota head print, is an old Metallic chest trunk that is house to the Men's accessories, and the curtain for the fitting room is distressed African Aso-oke. Finally the furnitures are mostly brownish, re-polished and some left in their original condition...
