Welcome to my new flower-filled world! The redesign of KareyBancroft.com has been a labor of love and I’m so excited to share it.

I like to think of my brand as a lovely “luxury picnic” with all the flowers I love to grow combined with the happy checks, dots, plaids and stripes that help create the whimsical style I love. Now I’m not only making art, but have designed fun new products that feature my collages.

I’ve had a camera in my hand since I was 8. My dad bought my sisters and I each our own Kodak Instamatic camera; a decision he came to regret when we would shoot hundreds, maybe thousands, of pictures of our cat Butterscotch and then hand him the film to get developed. I still have a photo album from 5th grade filled with black and white shots of school field trips, family vacations, and the cat.

When I moved to a new state five years ago I left behind 25 years of friendships, business ownership, community, and most importantly, my son. Coming to North Carolina was a fairly easy choice; my daughter and family were here, the climate is so much better than in Texas, and I would have the chance to plant some of the flowers I loved growing up in California.
