Hand Painted Cloth Aisle Runners

Shop Online!
Our hand painted aisle runners have awed wedding guests as close as
down the street, oceanside in Florida, hotels in Beverly Hills, and as
far away as a little church in Rome, Italy. You don't have to be a
Hollywood movie star to add this great special effect to your show!!
All of our aisle runners are hand painted. We do not sell machine manufactured designs or patterns.
We sell only higher quality fabric runners, not paper, plastic or muslin fabric offered elsewhere.
The runners are sold separately from the artwork. For prices on the runners and fabric color
selection click
HERE.
From classic to whimsical and fun loving, we offer many different designs to choose from. Select
from our pre priced styles on the web site or have a custom runner specially designed with the
elements and colors of your choice starting at $450.00. |
Meet the artist!
I'm Cheryl Bernardi at Artistic Aisles. My professional background
includes a degree in fine art and over 20 years of work experience in the areas of commercial and
fine art.
I've
provided a few samples of my work here. Hopefully, they will spark your
own imagination and help you to envision your own customized wedding
runner. Picture the runner as a large canvas, an opportunity to share
with all present that day a message, image or prayer that is reflective
of your hearts.
It would be my pleasure to help in making your wedding day sacred and beautiful. I look forward to meeting you.
Warmest Wishes, Cher
