Mission Statement:
Bring the beauty of nature into your home with a pressed flower collage art lampshade. Using real pressed flowers, ferns, leaves and paper cuts, each collage lampshade is created by hand and each a unique design of colors and hues from nature's palette. We carefully enhance each flower to a natural brillance to ensure years of enjoyment.
Who We Are:
Jane and Michael Floyd have been creating wildflower lampshades since moving to the mountain region in 1979. Discovering the beauty and abundance of wildflower and plant life has been a constant inspiration for their ever-growing and changing wildflower art. They live in an early 1800's log cabin on 10 acres in Grayson Co., minutes from the scenic New River and Mount Rogers, the highest peak in Virginina. They love to spend time hunting and identifying new flowers. On their farm they grow a wide variety of flowers and ferns that they pick and press for use in their lampshades and art. Jane enjoys time spent in nature and has worked in a variety of art mediums since early childhood. Michael has been playing music since he was 14, so if he is not in the woods picking flowers, he is picking his guitar.
