Hi, I'm Ashley.
Chap & Bird is named after my pets, Chappy the cat and Birdie the dog. They're currently asleep somewhere in my studio, which is also our home, near the beach on Amelia Island, Florida.
The idea started a few years ago when I helped a friend bring his sailboat from Florida down to the Caribbean. In the Bahamas, I found beautiful hand-printed fabric I couldn't stop thinking about. I brought them home, made a few pillows, and people started asking where they could buy one. So I started making more.
