I completely get him. I've loved his creations since the first time I saw them.

[@MariaPetrovaNYC]

Love that John can make a living off his passion... Old + new = beautiful.

[@a.bartlett9898]

I watched this segment several times when it first aired and I still love it.

[@njl8908]

Love his stuff so much!! Was so excited to go to NYC and stop in his store and buy some of his beautiful work.

[@props1028]

he has a good eye for utilizing art created by others.

[@putcielinky]

one of the best segments of all time

[@lighthouse1566]

And now he’s a top designer for targets Halloween special John Derain collection !!! I literally bought almost one of my each today he’s amazing!

[@anitcarpenter5564]

Me too. I stayed up for the launch! Amazing indeed.

[@TheFiown]

He doesn't cut up antique prints, the paper is not good for what he does. He makes copies and cuts THEM up ,,,

[@lloydkuper]

do you know on what kind of paper he prints out?

[@rr7firefly]

"gluing high-quality prints of the originals onto glass surfaces..."
John Derian has an unerring sense of proportions, and high quality objects. It would be a real pleasure to visit one of his stores in NYC. His artistic eye carries into his personal space. One item is particularly interesting: the entry door that looks like a bureau.

[@colleenkramlich6210]

I simply love his aesthetic! Immediately ordered his picture book from Amazon. His shop will be a must see if I ever get to NYC! Thanks for the inspiration, John!

[@lilianacerna7083]

I wish he make a 2nd sticker book

[@silverlve70]

Interesting!

[@darlalove]

He has a sticker book out, got it from Target online ❤️

[@leslieelaine5968]

I love it!

[@gailjackson4574]

I live this!

[@APRIL2862]

$60 for the paper weight, no wonder he has so much stuff!

[@lorrilewis2178]

$60 for a gorgeous and interesting paperweight.

[@drewconway7135]

So basically decoupage.

[@rpbphx]

Would that be similar to calling Jackson Pollock's No.5 basically paint dribbles?

[@DarcieGlam]

Yes, he started with a decoupaged plate and turned it into a huge business. Now that's talent.

[@lorrilewis2178]

Yes, but made with the best eye for design, the best glass, and the best quality images. So, no, it's not basic at all.

[@ccharles848]

Cool!

[@sm954005]

Omg you had the opportunity to say PeaCoats

[@rpbphx]

Two peas in a pod!

[@TaylorMade511]

Taking somebody else's art is not "handmade".

[@lorrilewis2178]

Decoupage is an old handmade craft that uses existing prints.

[@lestudio76]

😳😣 no. Just no.
