Breast Cancer Awareness Month holds a deeply personal meaning for Tumble. Seven years ago, Tumble lead designer Kerri Anne Besse was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 39. During treatment, she turned to art as a source of strength and created The Cancer Calendar, a practical and encouraging resource for others navigating cancer. Kerri later became an LBBC Young Advocate, making this partnership a natural extension of her commitment to art, advocacy and community. This October, Tumble will donate a portion of sales from Kerri’s favorite rugs to support LBBC’s trusted resources and programs.
Kerri’s favorites
For Kerri, creating art became a source of strength and purpose throughout her experience with breast cancer. She believes rugs are works of art for the floor, with the power to make a home feel warm, welcoming, and personal. These are some of Kerri’s favorite Tumble designs, selected for the joy and comfort they bring:
Mil Flores Rug | Sand & multi
Design Notes from Kerri: Frida Kahlo often wore traditional Tehuana dresses with florals and embroidered elements as a way of honoring her Mexican heritage. The Mil Flores design was inspired by her personal style and embodies the richness of Mexican textile traditions with some added depth and textures.
