About me

Hi, I'm Katie.

After years of accidentally killing houseplants, I approached the idea of using nature to decorate my home from a different angle. I now make romantic and lasting butterfly centerpieces, and each display is a conversation piece.

Each work is handmade by me.

With every handcrafted piece, I aim to encapsulate a snapshot of time—an invitation to pause and appreciate the transient beauty that surrounds us. My hope is that each centerpiece resonates with the viewer, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder, and fostering a deeper connection to the delicate tapestry of existence.  

All specimens I use have been responsibly sourced from farms and butterfly sanctuaries all over the world. I feel very lucky to be able to create and disseminate a new form of art that combines my love of art with my love of the environment.

In a world where mass production and cheap materials reign, Flutter by Katie strives to make something beautifully meaningful and with intention.

Each piece is meticulously crafted, blending timeless designs with contemporary flair to create displays that inspire.
