What's new in Owl and Wallflowers Store?

Lots of new vintage nature books in Owl and Wallflowers Etsy store this month. I also released a new  botanical jewellery collection earlier in the month, with a selection of pressed flower necklaces and even a few pressed flower bookmarks. The Forget Me not pieces are turning out to be very popular, and also one of my favourites to make!



I also has a mini toadstool and fungi themed Etsy update earlier in the month which proved very popular. I had some lovely vintage mushroom guides including some books from the Balndford 1960s colour series and also the very collectable Oxford nature series from the 1980s.



Some lovely antiquarian nature books in Owl and Wallflowers Etsy store this month, including this beautiful, rare 1920s Bee guide, as part of the Shown to the Children series.


I also added some very beautiful 1920s trees, butterflies, wildflower & garden flower guides to the shop this month,





 Even some antique nature guides from the 1800s!

April





It's been a busy first few weeks in April. I have been working hard on a Spring update in Owl and Wallflower Etsy store.

There are some lovely early vintage Wildflower books from the 1930s and 1940s, many of which have now sold.






I've also added several new botanical jewellery pieces as part of the Spring collection including this dried flower pendant on a 20" gold plated chain.


Also new, in this handmade Fern orb, crystal clear and filled with high quality UV resistant resin and attached to a 20" silver plated chain.


Pretty Larkspur pendant in a silver octagonal frame. 


Resin Moss Orb bottle with a little cork stopper.



Handbound sketchbooks using strong waxed linen bookbinders thread and upcycled vintage Wildflower books.


Owl and Wallflower was at Pop up in the Palm House last weekend, a lovely Spring Fair in the wonderful Palm House in Sefton Park, Liverpool. I had an amazing weekend in the most wonderful location, surrounded by lots of talented artists and makers!




Also, my most popular creation at the weekend has just been added to Owl and Wallflowers Etsy store, dried flower pendant with a real acorn top.
