A professional graphic designer who uses her background in art history and restoration to create everyday objects you can enjoy in your home or as wearable art. It's a joy to bring the best art and design of ages past into everyday life, plus invitations and DIY party projects. If you don't already share my love for artists and illustrators such as Alphonse Mucha, Edmund Dulac, Beatrix Potter, Carl Larsson and John Tenniel, perhaps you'll discover a new enthusiasm.

Flirt - Biscuits Lefevre-Utile by Alphonse Mucha, c.1895 Advertising poster for Biscuits Lefevre-Utile. A handsome gentleman in white tie evening dress flirts with a beautiful young lady in a high-necked gown of golden green. This could be the start of something wonderful. The setting appears to be an arboretum, and a philodendron plant curls gracefully into the frame. Colors include olive green, muted green, gold, reddish brown, cinnamon orange, taupe, rosy beige, black and antique white.

A truly charming gift box, treasure box, cache box, trinket box or jewelry box. You might say it could be the start of a beautiful romance (smile).
