Everbloom Paper Flowers

Lily (Wayfarer)

$135

The Wayfarer is a flower with a real plant’s logic behind it, but no entry in any field guide. It borrows its architecture from the clivia, the South African bush lily that blooms on shaded forest floors: broad strap leaves rising in a fan from the base, a single arching stem, a bloom that opens flat and faces outward instead of nodding. Where a clivia crowds a dozen flowers into one head, this carries exactly one.

The color is the departure. Each petal moves from deep orange at the edge to warm gold at the center, shaded wet so the transition reads as a gradient rather than a boundary, with a pale flushed throat behind a spray of hand-cut white filaments. The leaves are worked in the same register — deep green with the faint purple bruising real clivia foliage takes on at the base, veined and shaped individually.

Signature Series pieces are Julia’s own inventions — botanicals that don’t exist, made with the same techniques as the ones that do. This one is spare enough for a small space and bright enough to carry a room on its own.

Materials & Making

Every piece is built from premium German and Italian crepe paper — hand-dyed, hand-painted, and shaped petal by petal. Stems are wired throughout, so each piece can be bent, angled, and arranged as you like, and holds its shape once set.

A multi-step protective finish seals the color, adds a subtle luster, and guards against fading and humidity. Because every piece is colored by hand, tones vary slightly from the photograph — no two are identical, and yours will be its own.


Made to Order

Each piece is made by hand after your order is confirmed. Typical preparation times, measured from the date your order is confirmed with Julia: 7–10 days for one to three stems, 10–14 days for four to seven, and 14–21 days for larger commissions. Shipping transit adds approximately 5–7 days. Timelines run longer through the holiday season and the spring wedding months, and your confirmed date will always be stated in writing before you commit.

Working toward a wedding or event date? Include the date in your request and we’ll confirm the full schedule before anything is finalized. Need a piece sooner than the times above? Ask — a compressed timeline can often be arranged.

Prefer a different palette? Most pieces can be made in custom colors — describe what you have in mind, or send a photograph, and Julia will confirm what’s possible with your quote.

Every piece is finished with a tag signed and dated by Julia, nested in tissue, and boxed for safe travel. Preparation & Delivery


Care & Repairs

Though delicate in appearance, each piece is remarkably durable and may be bent and arranged as needed. Keep out of prolonged direct sun and damp environments, and your piece will hold its color and form for decades. Because every piece is made by hand to order, all sales are final. Should a piece ever be damaged, Julia will repair it whenever repair is possible, for the life of the piece — you cover shipping and handling. Guarantee & Repairs
