Fiddlehead Creations is a team of two – a  graphic designer invigorated by the natural design she sees in every turn of a leaf and a biologist, who immerses herself in the science and patterns of nature. Joined by a mutual love of photography, they merge their skills and insights through this venture. 

Their products are truly designed by nature.  Their mission is to inspire conservation by surrounding oneself with Earth's unique and irreplaceable treasures.

They capture nature’s unique designs in their photographs. Utilizing graphic design skills, they render the photos into patterns. The designs are printed on eco-friendly textiles and paper. Paper products are packaged and textiles are hand-crafted into pillows, scarves, and bags. They strive to inspire conservation by taking a deeper look at the natural world around us.

Come join us from 6pm-9pm Saturday, April 14th during the Ballard Artwalk and check out their beautiful work!!
