Jane Mittelstaedt -
Where Flowers and Keepsakes get their Second Act

“Come dream with me…the possibilities are endless!”

Jane is the artist behind Hop Scotch Designs, where real flowers and special objects are preserved in resin and turned into joyful, one-of-a-kind pieces meant to be loved every day.

She grows many of her own blooms, forages for unexpected wildflowers, and works with deeply meaningful florals — from wedding bouquets to memorial arrangements — giving each one a new life beyond the vase. Every piece is designed, dried, arranged, and finished by hand, celebrating color, texture, and the natural quirks that make each flower unique.

Jane’s work spans jewelry, trays, paperweights, side tables, and functional art — all infused with her love of bold color, playful design, and storytelling through nature. No two pieces are ever the same, and that’s exactly the point.

Hop Scotch Designs is about holding onto moments, honoring memories, and letting flowers keep showing off long after their season has passed.
