  • Materials Used

    What makes Studio by the Bay
    unique is its materials; which could be yours or made in house. Organic materials that are used are locally sourced. The majority is grown in a small urban garden, upcycled, or foraged. Materials available change throughout the
    growing season. Items come with a description of what materials are used. Each resin piece is handmade with no two alike. Both UV and epoxy resin are used to preserve items with a multitude of drying techniques being applied for fresh materials. Glitters, foils, and other additives can be added to make your piece shine.

Establishment

My name is Nicole and I have been an urban gardener for over ten years. I started Studio by the Bay LLC in 2022.

Here is Studio by the Bay's origin story. During quarantine, I taught myself how to pour resin to preserve flowers from my garden. I taught myself how to work with epoxy and UV resins. I started to making small pieces and jewelry first just for fun at farmer's markets and festivals in 2021.

As my skills grew and people learned what I could do I began receiving requests to dry flowers from clients for special occasions.

I now work with people all over the US to create keepsakes.

The support in my craft has been phenomenal! For those who have seen me at the local market and at shows thank you for your support. Being able to mix art and flowers is a dream come true.

I joke with my family I always wanted to be a florist and in a way, I am a backward one preserving arrangements in permanent settings.
