Garden commissions for the house or garden
'ONE MOMENT IN TIME' - BESPOKE ART USING YOUR OWN FRESH FLOWERS
Capture the beauty of your favorite flowers, herbs, and plants in a unique piece of art to display in your home or garden. This ancient botanical technique expertly presses your blooms in clay that is then transcribed into plaster or concrete. The intricate details of your plants and reproduced to create a tactile, textured impression almost like botanical braille.
Your personal art piece can be made in various sizes and shapes, and can be displayed in your home or garden as an all-year-round reminder of your cherished flowers. This makes for a perfect gift for yourself or loved ones.
Looking for a unique way to memorialize a special place or event? These bespoke panels are the perfect solution. Working closely with you, Nettie creates a natural clay tinted plaster cast that can take up to 6 weeks to dry before final cleaning and painting in watercolour if required. For outdoor display, Nettie makes a silicone mould from the plaster cast from which a perfect replica in concrete is made, ideal for displaying on in the bathroom or kitchen in your home or a wall or patio in the garden.
Nettie will visit your garden together to choose the perfect ones to cast into an everlasting piece of art.
