Whimsical creations lovingly crafted from foraged materials
A little twist of nature to enchant your home, venue or event

I have recently become acquainted with bag-moths, as they have come in with my foraged wild-flowers. I have two residing in some mossy branches in the corner of my lounge, they are so lovely in their little cocoons, which they wrap in sticks, and recently I see they have moss added to their outfits.. intriguing, as to how they achieve this :)

I offer you one-off pieces that I have felt inspired to make. Browse through my collection of arrangements for tables, walls, and hanging spaces. Feel free to contact me if you would like a collection made for a venue or event. I work with dried materials only at this stage. Their essence is beautiful to me and has the advantage of timelessness; so décor for events etc. can be organised ahead of time!

Nature is constantly expressing herself in all her forms and stages of beauty. I love to feel that magic, within my walls, an invitation, to that childlike sense of imagination and wonder that may have been forgotten.... The thrill of finding a perfect bird egg or nest or feather. Or shiny plastic looking pupae hanging serenely, or, if you were really lucky, a fairy sprite looking back at you.
