ABOUT THE DESIGNER

Beth Ayer - Television Casting Director turned Custom Pillow Designer

Beth Ayer

Beth Ayer—Television Casting Director turned Custom Pillow Designer

Fresh out of college, I moved to Los Angeles to find my niche. I found myself in the world of Hollywood and became a Television Casting Director. After a long and successful career, I realized that there must be more for me in life. I had another calling. Leaving entertainment behind, I enrolled in the UCLA Interior Design Program. Working in Interior Design was my dream and I was good at it. But, after a few years, I again reinvented myself within the Design world. I had fallen hard for fabrics and all things textile. Connections with the design world afforded me to procure a wide variety of extraordinary fabrics, some new, some discontinued but, all wonderful. What to do? Thankfully, I know how to sew and I have a eye. My pillows are all hand made by me…Every creative decision is made by me…Every hand stitch is made by me.

The same traits that helped me navigate a successful career in Entertainment are now put to work in my design life. Creativity, open-mindedness, and tenacity are used daily. I find that everything can be beautiful with a little nudge and a lot of patience.

Beth Ayer Design Philosophy

Uniquely You Design

Embracing the unexpected – honoring the expected

Whether I’m designing a pillow with Designer fabric or using a found placemat from the 50’s, I love to “break the rules”. By blending styles, colors and textures that inspire me, everyday living becomes artistic yet approachable—-comfortable and stylish. Design does not need to be pretentious or boastful, and it doesn’t always require trendy or expensive elements. It can be accomplished with a little ingenuity…..a little trust…..a little imagination….and a lot of love.

Living with, and showcasing, what you love

Design is personal and visually tells a story. Things collected, family heirlooms, vintage remnants from the flea market – all help to inspire design that is unique. I find common threads among all pieces, blend old and new, texture and color, to create stunning results.

Being resourceful

Vintage textiles… new textiles… textiles that need extra love. All can be transformed.

The idea of refurbishing and reusing materials has been a part of Design for generations. Today, with environmental concerns and resources being depleted, there is no better reason to recycle. Plus, the results can be stunning! A piece that might have been considered obsolete or passé, becomes a creatively unique new addition to a space. It’s a wonderful moment when I complete a pillow with repurposed elements.
