ARCANA VINTAGE

Hello I am Flossie May. I am a Stylist, collector, interior decorator and shop owner.
I have always been captivated by beauty. Wether it's the shape of a tree growing, the hand stitched embroidery on an old piece of clothing or the carving on an old stone building. The beauty of the world is what inspires me and I love collecting pieces of beauty and creating a space and a moment for each individual piece to be seen and appreciated. 
Growing up I loved to collect shells and stones and rearrange my small bedroom constantly to see how it felt in different ways. 
It just as much about the feeling of an object as much as it is about the aesthetics of the object. If something has been made a long time ago and has passed through many peoples lives you can feel that though each object. It holds an energy and I love to imagine it's story over the years. 
I have a big passion for old and handmade items and clothing. I love to find old and forgotten things and give them a new appreciation. 
You can usually find me at a market rummaging through old bits and bobs, planting flowers in my garden or painting with my children. 

I am fascinated by our senses
and how they impact our experiences. 
How scent can take us back in time to memories, how music can make us feel so much emotion. I love working with the senses to make the most dreamy and relaxing environments.   

In my evenings I love to create herbal smudge sticks for cleansing the energy of spaces, making beeswax candles and listening to music by the fire.
