Created With Joy Art
Created With Joy Art is a Sunshine Coast–based bridal bouquet preservation studio specialising in transforming wedding flowers into bespoke, heirloom artworks.
Founded by artist Joy van Niekerk, the business was born during COVID after Joy lost her job and began pressing flowers at home. What started as small handcrafted pieces quickly grew into a sought-after bouquet preservation service for brides across Queensland and Australia.
Joy is the only preservation artist in Australia offering hand-soldered stained-glass metal frames using the Tiffany method, alongside custom timber framing and her premium Everfloré Fine Art Reproduction — a museum-quality giclée print option designed for couples who want their bouquet preserved exactly as it looked at its best, without fading or change.
Each piece is meticulously handcrafted using pressed flowers, with 10–20 hours of hands-on work invested into every artwork. Bouquets can be dropped off at Joy’s Sunshine Coast studio or shipped Australia-wide via Express Post.
Created With Joy Art is known for its craftsmanship, care, and deeply sentimental approach — creating not just preserved flowers, but meaningful pieces of art that honour a couple’s story for a lifetime
