Meet the Maker

Natty Deco Hand Painted Birchwood Flowers, Paper - Cut Cards, and Seasonal Decorations are all designed, laser cut, and hand painted by me, Maggie Powell here in my Somerset studio.

I have a background in Surface Design and for many years ran the Digital Textile Design Lab at a local university before setting up my own dedicated studio. I make each decoration myself, individually, and with great attention to detail. Working solely with natural materials, I use responsibly sourced timbers to produce my popular range of Hand Painted Flowers; the beautifully textured Somerset Paper I use to make the card range is produced locally just a few miles away at St Cuthbert's Mill, City of Wells.

Inspiration comes from our precious, natural world, I appreciate living in a beautiful county with many woodland walks, country estates, and wildflower meadows. I also have a love of the Arts and Crafts Movement which gently informs my own contemporary designs.

My work is sold in selected galleries across the South West and in my native Yorkshire. I am a registered National Trust Local Seller, and also exhibit regularly with RHS Gardens Rosemoor (Devon) and Harlow Carr (N.Yorkshire). My seasonal event listings are updated regularly - if you are local please do come and say hello.

Studio news is updated regularly on my Instagram and Facebook pages, please join us, we are a lovely, friendly community @nattydeco
