About
With a background in illustration and tattooing, my creations reflect a variety of disciplines. My newest venture of handmade rugs incorporates my love for bold, bright design as well as graphic imagery inspired by Japanese Yokai and old- school tattoo design.
Custom rug 1.2x1.8m
A rug has the ability to transform the space around it and so a unique service that I offer to my clients is to propose a range of designs based on their taste, their furniture, the size and shape of the space which the rug will occupy. This way my clients can envisage the rug in situ and so chose the design that they feel best meets their criteria before I create the rug.

The customisable nature of my craft allows me to create unique shapes, sizes and colour ways based on the needs and desires of my clients.
All of our rugs are created by hand in our studio in France. Besides pieces already in stock, our rugs are made to order. In operating this way, we can work with our clients to create the perfect piece.
About the artist
Betty Boo Onion
“At 27 years old, there are a range of artistic diciplines which I am equally passionate about. Having completed my Bachelors of Art in Illustration, I moved from the UK to France where I focused my career around signpainting, gold leaf gilding, and a mix of handmade and digital lettering.
I have also been working in France as a tattoo artist since 2022, and in 2024 discovered the art of rug making.
My aim in my art is to incorperate these other elements throughout my work, be this bold bright abstract illustration, custom lettering, or tattoo- design inspired pieces, I have loads of ideas which will be frequently updated in my online store so keep your eyes peeled!”
