Frequently Asked Questions


What does “ethically sourced” really mean?

Glad you asked!

About 90% of the bugs and bones I sell in the shop I find and process myself. Yes, that means I spend a lot of time walking around outside looking at the ground. These specimens are always found already deceased, and are never harmed for the sake of art.

The other 10% of my specimens I source from trusted processors I have thoroughly vetted to ensure they share the same values I do in this area.

Do you offer custom services?

Totally! I love creating one of a kind pieces for you to love forever! Keep in mind that I only open my books a few times a year for a handful of pieces at a time, so make sure to follow me on social media to stay abreast of opportunities to work together.

I love your stuff but I want to see it in person before I buy…where can I do that?

I am fortunate enough to work with a handful of fantastic brick and mortar stores in the Madison, WI area on consignment or wholesale. You can currently peruse my wares at Communication and Boneset Records. Not local to the Madison area? Sign up for email updates about markets I may be vending near you!

I’m a business owner and I want to work together!
