Back-To-School Chinoiserie Gift Guide
A New School Year
The back-to-school season is an exciting (and slightly crazy!) time for both parents and children. After all, a new school year brings new friends, new experiences, new classrooms, and even new university accommodations.
What better way to kick off the school year and embrace those autumn colors than with some beautiful chinoiserie accessories and artworks!

Mini art prints are perfect for adding some chinoiserie flair to a small space. They can create an opulent feel when displayed as a collection or a maximalist and eclectic vibe when displayed as mix-and-match prints!
Chinoiserie Phone Cases
Phone cases don't just have to be functional; they can be beautiful as well! My luxury phone cases are perfect for chinoiserie art lovers, as they are printed in the highest quality, with a smooth matte finish that preserves all the intricate details of my original hand-painted artwork.

Chinoiserie Art Materials
Chinoiserie paintbrushes in Diane Hill's studio
Give the gift of creativity with some chinoiserie paintbrushes or even silk paper! Sometimes, it’s more enjoyable to give something that can be used again and again, especially if the recipient is an art lover.
Chinese paintbrushes can last a lifetime, so what better gift than something that not only will be used repeatedly but also something that will (hopefully) last forever! You could even kickstart a budding artist’s paintbrush collection with their first Chinoiserie Paint & Blending brush (it even comes with a digital brush guide)!
Diane Hill Gift Card
Sometimes it’s nice for someone to choose their own gift (especially if they have a particular style or pattern they love!), so a digital gift card is a great option. You can choose how much you’d like to put on the card, and this way the recipient can even put it towards a bigger purchase.
