Welcome to Michelle Masters' wonderful, unique topiary themed gifts for the home, gardener, and animal lover!  A unique blend of whimsy and elegance, Michelle's collections incorporate watercolor depictions of topiary—living sculpture shaped by careful pruning into a broad range of decorative items.

Living in the Finger Lakes region of Upstate New York, artist Michelle Masters' love of gardening and growing things found their way to paper through her fun topiary creations. Her clever images are clean, simple, uncluttered and well designed. Michelle received and MFA in computer graphic design from Rochester Institute of Technology in 1993. Her fine art (watercolor sample shown here) has been shown in state and national exhibitions. 

Michelle considers herself to be a very tactile person and places a strong emphasis on the "feel" of her products—the weight of the stationery paper, the smooth finish of her framed prints and the texture of the fabric which shows through the paint on her pillows. She finds richness in the details and desires to translate that sense of quality in all that she creates.

The pillow here features her "Shear Bliss" design. Who says a dog wouldn't enjoy a couch made from a topiary hedge? Wouldn't it be bliss to stretch out on a sofa in the garden for the afternoon?

This is definitely the place to find a sweet little birthday, holiday or thank-you gift. Presentation is always important and in that regard, the creative packaging of Michelle's products is simply wonderful.

There is an varied collection of art that includes themes related to Dogs (Golden Retrievers, Labs, Poodles, Terriers, Pugs, German Shepherds), Cats, Animals (Horses, Rabbits, Pigs), Children, Garden Fashion, Hats, Holidays, and more.

 
These 6 inch x 6 inch Hemstitched 100% linen sachets are filled with aromatic French Lavender buds and are handprinted by the artist with your favorite topiary designs provided below. What a wonderful gift for a special friend or to treat yourself.

Michelle Masters' Hemstitched French Lavender Sachets can be used to keep linens fresh, or in any room in the house to give a light scent of lavender. The fresh lavender scent will last a long time, but if it should start to loose it's scent, a slight tap or squeeze will release more fragrance.

They are very calming, and add comfort to anywhere they are placed. In fact, keeping one in you car not only keeps it smelling nice, but helps during those stressful commutes!

These fragrant sachets are embellished with a sheer organza bow and packaged in cellophane to retain their freshness. Available topiary designs are provided below.
