Wood Crafts
At our workshop, we craft wooden planters that utilize a diverse range of materials and styles. Our repertoire of wooden creations are reimagined from;
-
Discarded scrap lumber
-
Forrest floor branches and fallen twigs
-
Recycled tin cans - then birch-wrapped
-
Reclaimed wood from dismantled structures and fences
Hunt & Gather Vintage Finds
At Gather Arts, we have a penchant for collecting vintage vessels, breathing new life into them as captivating home decor items. Our quest spans far and wide as we search for unique vintage pieces that can be artfully repurposed as planters or vases. These timeless vessels are then thoughtfully paired with complementary plants, resulting in harmonious arrangements that blend the nostalgia of the past with the vibrancy of the present. Our planters are a hit with fans of the cottagecore style.
Hand Painted Work
With every brushstroke, we merge the charm of hand-painted art with the character of reclaimed materials, creating a truly one-of-a-kind aesthetic that resonates with both the past and the present. Discarded windows have been a popular canvas choice as well as mirrors and small furniture pieces.
Handmade Vases
Our workshop sits on our flower farm so we began creating our own wooden vessels and vases to showcase our flowers. We also created a collection of propagation vessels for plants. The propagation enthusiast loves how we add some style and charm to the process or propoagation.
