Retirement Box for Marcus

" When looking for a unique gift, please do consider Katherine’s beautiful bespoke Memory Boxes. We commissioned her to create one as a parting gift for a colleague to mark his retirement. The end result was perfect and captured aspects of our colleague’s career and interests in a truly special way. It became a gift which was both wonderful to give and also to receive and be cherished. Our thanks to Katherine as an artist for her depth of talent, creativity and sensitivity in creating her beautiful bespoke memory boxes. "

Ruby Anniversary Box

“My whole family was delighted with the Ruby Anniversary box Katherine created for my parents. Using a mix of objects we gave her and beautiful pieces she made herself, she created a truly special and personal memento that they will always treasure.

We didn’t really know where to start with the box but Katherine guided us through the whole process, helping us with initial ideas and keeping us informed every step of the way. I can’t recommend Katherine enough: it was a pleasure working with her from start to finish."

Birthday Box for Laura

" I decided to commission a box for my 40th birthday as a present from me to me! I emailed a list of ideas to Katherine and she came up with plenty of creative suggestions. She communicated throughout the process, sharing pictures of items and a mock up of the layout, so I could decide what I wanted. The result is beautiful! The box lives on my mantelpiece and everyone comments on it when they visit. "

Route to Work Box

This piece represented a body of items that were collected along one key route over the course of two weeks. It showcases the everyday and throwaway objects that are discarded or lost on a daily basis.

Childhood Memories

"Having heard Katherine on Radio 4 and then following her on Instagram I was fascinated by the memory boxes she curates. When it came to deciding what to do to celebrate my sisters 50th birthday it was an easy decision to commission Katherine to make us a memory box.

The whole process was such a fun and positive experience. Katherine listened to my ideas and suggested items we could include and worked very flexibly to stay within my budget and deadlines. Once she’d received the objects from me she went over various layout options via video calls and messages.

The final piece was better than I could have imagined, made with care and thought by a craftsperson who obviously puts a lot of pride into every piece she creates."
