BOW WOW BLITZ AT THE BDC

KPI loved participating in the Boston Design Center's "Bow Wow Blitz"! The purpose of the event was to raise money for Second Chance Animal Shelter - a no-kill shelter located in the Boston area.

Fundraising was accomplished by auctioning off bespoke dog beds crafted by top interior designers throughout Massachusetts. We decided to take a fun and different approach by creating a tee-pee tent. To start, we sourced a (dog sized) canvas tent. From there, Kristin hand drew cheeky sketches of various dogs, dog toys and - of course- a fire hydrant.

Once all of the sketches were completed, we scanned and printed them on iron-on paper so we could apply them directly to the canvas. For the dog bed itself, Kristin found a fun and cozy zebra print fabric, perfect for afternoon napping. Finally, to top it all off, we added a red Kong tassel detail from the top of the tee-pee. This is truly such a fun project and definitely had us all thinking outside of the box!
