CREATING PRECIOUS ARTWORKS TO REMEMBER LIFE’S MOMENTOUS OCCASIONS

MADE BY HAND IN SCOTLAND

Hi, I’m Katy. Welcome to my botanical casting world.

I aim to capture the ephemeral, transient beauty of nature in my casts; giving permanent form to a fleeting moment in the natural world. Whether preserving wedding bouquets, funeral flowers or creating bespoke interior commissions, my casts capture the form of precious blooms and transform them into a bespoke artwork.

All my botanical casts are meticulously handcrafted using hand-selected flowers and foliage sourced from my mum’s wonderful garden - check out the garden page to see where the action happens.

Cabin Casting Collaboration: Hergest Lee, Wales
Cabin Casting Collaboration: Hergest Lee, Wales

This year I am embarking on a series of collaborative exchanges I have arranged over the course of this year. I am going to be heading off on a few adventures, swapping some artwork made onsite using flowers from the surrounding area, for a few nights in some truly beautiful cabins and huts. My aim is to undertake my own Grand Tour, and also take some female ownership of a tradition which was almost entirely undertaken by men back in the day, and create a visual record of the flora and fauna of Britain by capturing a moment in the seasonal life of the landscape around the cabins I am staying in around the country.Follow here for details about my casting adventures!

Proud Member of Holly & Co

One of the best ways to end 2023 was by being accepted to be part of Holly&Co, a marketplace filled only with independent, small batch, handcrafted items from small businesses. What an honour! I am delighted that you can now find my casts at Holly&Co and I’m really looking forward to connecting with my fellow small business owners via the Holly&Co community.
