Barb Saalfeld - E. Lansing, MI

Barb Saalfeld creates various artistic products by pressing flowers, ferns, herbs, and leaves collected from Michigan Gardens, forests, and fields. She produces pictures, stationery, bookmarks, and more.

Her Mom (Ginnie), an accomplished artist inspired her love for art at an early age. Barb also spent much of her childhood gardening and roaming the woods nurturing a strong appreciation of nature.

Today Barb still enjoys gardening and collecting/pressing plant material for her art. She treasures the colors, textures, and scents of a garden along with the friendship sown from sharing plants and garden wisdom.

Just as each flower, leaf, and other gifts from nature are special and different, each item created by Barb is individually handcrafted and one-of-a-kind.
