Capture nature. Preserve memories. Create something beautiful.
Every Meadows by the Sea workshop is inspired by the fleeting beauty of the natural world and the belief that nature's most precious moments deserve to be celebrated long after the seasons change.
Ally, the artist behind Meadows by the Sea, creates botanical art that celebrates nature in all its forms. With a deep love for flowers, timber, and botanicals, she is inspired by the intricate details that make every natural element unique, from the delicate petals of a flower to the rich grains and swirling burls of live-edge timber. By thoughtfully pairing preserved florals with natural materials, Ally highlights the beauty, texture, and character of the natural world, inviting others to slow down and appreciate the extraordinary details that often go unnoticed.
This philosophy is at the heart of every workshop. From delicate flowers and lush moss to coastal botanicals and woodland treasures, you'll work with carefully selected natural materials to create beautiful pieces that celebrate the changing seasons and preserve their beauty in a lasting form.
Whether you're joining us during the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers or at another time of year, our workshops offer an opportunity to immerse yourself in creativity, connect with nature, and leave with handcrafted keepsakes that tell your own story.
Because while flowers may bloom for only a season, the memories you create, and the pieces you make, can last a lifetime.
