Custom Work:
Specialty craft pieces, made by hand in Brooklyn.
I create custom-crafted pieces for interiors, events, photo shoots, films, and brand experiences, ranging from lifelike paper botanicals to oversized paper flowers, papier-mâché sculptural elements, hand-sewn soft sculpture, and whimsical prop-style builds.
My background in event and set design, book production, and specialty crafting across a wide variety of media provides me with a comprehensive understanding of both aesthetics and logistics. Whether it’s a single showstopper piece or a full installation, I bring ideas to life through hands-on design and studio execution.
What I do:
Who I Work With:
Interior designers looking for custom objects or sculptural accents
Stylists and art directors needing props for photography or sets
Event and brand teams commissioning large quantities of flowers or bespoke installations
Anyone with a creative vision and a desire to make something extraordinary
Have something unusual in mind? I’m always open to new materials and concepts.
How It Works:
Most projects begin with a conversation. Once I have a sense of your goals, timeline, and budget, I’ll send over an estimate that includes design time, materials, and production.
My typical structure includes:
A non-refundable design/prototyping fee (credited toward production if we move forward)
A 50/50 payment split: half upfront, half on delivery
3–5 week production timelines (rush available depending on scope)
Installation and delivery are available in New York City. Shipping is available nationwide.
Examples of Custom Work:
Some recent projects include:
A sculptural papier mâché vase, modeled after a vase at The V&A
Hundreds of paper flowers incorporating a client’s logo for a branded event
A papier mâché frame inspired by early-American folk art for a historic painting
A custom pink Japanese maple tree for a nursery installation
A six-foot-tall papier-mâché asparagus
A hand-sewn fabric ring pillow for a wedding ceremony
Paper botanicals for styling books, product launches, and magazine shoots
If you have something unusual or specific in mind, I’d love to hear about it. I’m always up for creative problem-solving.
Starting Rates:
Most small custom projects begin at $1,200. My studio minimum is $800. Larger installations are quoted per project. I’m happy to talk through the scope and timeline to help determine what’s possible.
Past Clients:
Past clients include Better Homes and Gardens, Harry Winston, Instagram, HGTV, Casper, Rise & Set, Grow Marketing, Eleventh Street Workshop, and Volunteers of America. I also previously served as Director of Special Projects at David Stark Design, where I led custom builds, content creation for social media, and created specialty craft projects for national brands, books, and editorial campaigns.
