Floral Pieces

 

Floral Pieces

Delicate floral pieces to commemorate some of the most special people in your life.
My floral monograms make beautiful baby gifts to treasure for a lifetime, or commission a floral wreath to announce a new baby or marriage.
Each piece can be customized with the flowers of your choice or designed by scratch by me.
Announcement wreaths feature the birth month flowers for the baby and the state flowers for the new couple.

Frequently asked questions

How can I order one?
First, check if I’m open to commissions. I post my commission status on the Embroidery page and in the bio of my Instagram profile. If I’m not currently taking commissions, you can join my mailing list (sign-up below) to be alerted when I’m open again (please check your spam folder for the “Welcome” email after you sign up!). I typically open commissions every six weeks and accept three or four commissions at a time.

How long does each piece take to create?
The exact time varies depending on size and complexity, and I can give a more accurate time estimate once the design has been finalized. Typically, for a smaller monogram (4”-6”), I’d budget two weeks, while larger monograms and wreaths can take up to a month.

Can I pick the color of the background?
Yes! Most of my pieces have been stitched on cotton-linen fabric from the Robert Kaufman Essex line, which is available in a wide range of colors. You can see the full range here; if you’re interested in another color, please contact me directly.

Can I pick the color of the hoop?
I use bamboo hoops for my pieces, which are naturally a pale tan. The hoops can be stained or painted any color you request for an additional $20 fee.

Can I pick the flowers/flower colors?
Yes! During our initial design consultation, we can discuss possible flowers and color schemes. Typically, I use birth month flowers for baby announcement wreaths and state/country flowers for marriage wreaths (the flowers can be based on the locations of the couple’s home states/countries or locations of significance), but if there are specific flowers you’d prefer, I’m happy to accommodate you. I can also create a completely unique design.

How do you create the lettering?
As part of the design process, we’ll decide what kind of lettering you’d like for the monogram or the announcement. Typically, I use traditional calligraphy for the floral monograms, modern calligraphy for the names in the announcements, and modern sans-serif lettering for the dates.
