Kristin Carter of Olive And The Boy cre­ates weav­ing art fea­tur­ing a col­or­ful cast of char­ac­ters. The paint­ings with yarn are of folks whose embell­ish­ments help bring them to life. Kristin weaves in thick fiber for their hair and even includes bead­ing to show­case acces­sories. With thin over-stitch­ing, she adds detail to give her peo­ple more per­son­al­i­ty; one per­son offers some seri­ous side-eye while anoth­er has a hearty laugh.

Kristin sells her work through her Olive And The Boy Etsy shop. She takes cus­tom orders for her woven por­traits. Fol­low her on Insta­gram for more! (h/t: Anna Hart Turn­er—thank you!)

Although Kristin weaves many portraits, she also has a collection of beautiful blooms. The colorful flowers, hanging from dowel rods, will transform your walls into a bouquet!
