About
A small studio in Doha, making things by hand.
Shadow Flowers started in 2020 with a simple idea: that a gift can hold more than a moment if it is made with care. Each piece is a glass shadow box, filled with paper cardstock flowers cut and arranged by hand, with your wording set across the front.
We are not a large brand. There is no warehouse, no automated line, no overnight production. Every frame is made to order, here in Doha, by the same small team. That is also why we ask for three days before delivery — it is what the work needs.

The work
How a frame is made.
Four steps, all by hand, on the same bench. None of it is rushed.
Cut
Paper cardstock cut by hand into petals, leaves, and shapes that fit the arrangement.
Set
Each flower is layered and placed inside the shadow box so the depth reads from across the room.
Letter
Your wording is cut from vinyl and applied to the glass, with spelling confirmed before anything is cut.
Seal
The frame is closed, checked once more, then packed for delivery the way we'd want one delivered to us.
What we hold to
Three things we keep simple.
Handmade, every time
Nothing is printed or pre-made. Every frame is built start to finish in our studio.
Quiet over loud
We don't run urgency banners or sale countdowns. The work and the price are the same on a Tuesday as on a holiday.
Personal by default
Vinyl text on the glass is included on every frame. A name, a date, a single line — it's part of the piece, not an upsell.
For the avoidance of doubt
What we are not.
We feel better being clear up front about what to expect.
- Mass-produced wall art
- A fresh flower delivery service
- A budget gift
- An impersonal transaction
