 Welcome to Old Leaf Designs, where we pioneer the art of nature preservation.




About Old Leaf

Old Leaf began in 2018 with pressed flower phone cases — little pieces of nature, sent all over the world.

What started as a small creative experiment quickly became something bigger: the desire to take fleeting beauty and transform it into lasting, meaningful art.

I’m Tara — founder, artist, and forever curious creator.

What began on my kitchen bench has grown into a studio known for original, story-rich floral artworks that feel like secret gardens framed in glass.

I’ve always been stubborn about creating pieces that were different.

I trust instinct over trends, and believe the best work comes from exploration, play, and refusing to do things the easy way.

We don’t do “off the shelf.”

We listen to your story, study your blooms, and compose something unexpected — something that feels like you, but with a touch of wonder you didn’t know to ask for.

We work with those who value originality, craft, and beauty that lingers long after first glances fade.

If that’s you, welcome in.

“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” — Lao Tzu

Thank you for joining us on this slow and beautifully fun journey.
— Tara

I live and create on Bundjalung Country, in Northern NSW, Australia. I acknowledge the Arakwal People of the Bundjalung Nation, the traditional owners of this land. I pay my respects to Elders past and present and honour those whose culture and customs have nurtured and continue to nurture this land.
