From garden to fiber, from light to lens—this collection gathers moments shaped by hand and heart. Each piece is crafted with handmade paper born of cotton, flax, and the occasional whisper of garden-grown leaves. Layered with natural textures and quiet intention, these works reflect a rhythm of slowness, story, and wonder.

Every piece begins with a conversation. Whether it’s a memory, a meaningful flower, a favorite color palette, or a tribute to someone you love, commissioned works at Cottage at Marehaven are deeply personal and one of a kind.

This page highlights a selection of custom creations made in collaboration with thoughtful clients—featuring their words, their visions, and the handmade paper and photographs that brought them to life.

Would you like to commission a piece? I’d love to create something meaningful with you.

This paper art is amazeballs. The pictures don't show the dimension and justice of it.

This was absolutely stunning in real life. The packaging is beautiful. The packaging color was a beautiful violet color, which contrasted nicely with the color of the flowers. The seed paper (which is hand made), is a gorgeous print of Black Eyed Susans, which you simply plant for your own crop of flowers. It included easy, nicely written instructions on yet another piece of linen-colored homemade paper. This is such a beautiful, elegant gift which is perfect for someone who loves real flowers and the look of elegant crafting. Another amazing element of this shop is that the owner is a caregiver of a veteran who has ALS. This is her way to earn a living and find some creativity in her life. ❤️

I just received your stunning bookmark. I will treasure this. Thank you so so much (and please share with Tom that the use of color is stunning!) Big hugs and huge thanks!
