What would you keep?
Before we could save everything as an image, we kept seasons in other ways. Flowers were pressed between pages. Seeds were stored for another year.
Cloth took color from roots and walnut shells. Fruit became preserves and wine. Small pieces of a season were gathered, transformed and carried forward.
“Not autumn as a picture, but the details that make it recognizable.”— THE AUTUMN ARCHIVE
Color / Amber glass, berry red, wet moss
A color noticed once, and kept.


Gilded Butterfly at Dusk
The quietest piece holds the most light.

First, an observation. Then, something to wear.
Drag the marker to move between the first drawn study and the finished set.


What we kept.
Each set begins with a different fragment, yet all speak the same autumn language.

Mocha Butterflies at Midnight
Pearls, satin ribbon, and warm wood grain—a small souvenir dropped from a softer autumn

Gilded Butterfly at Dusk
Olive lacquer, amber glass, and tiny hearts—like a sealed note tucked between pages

Cocoa Daisy Checkerboard
A remembered plaid scarf—caramel and powder blue interwoven, finished with bow and dusk silver

Olive & Amber Love Letter
Cocoa squares and hand-painted daisies—graphic, familiar, gently nostalgic

Maple-Sugar Bear Wardrobe
The season's last picnic: berry plaid, scattered petals, and tiny golden seeds

Berry Daisy Picnic
Mocha ribbon, quiet butterflies, and a night sky spilled with copper light

Caramel Blue Plaid
Smoked glass, light-transmitting wings, and gilded details frozen in twilight stillness
There is no single version of autumn here.
Only things we thought were worth keeping—colors, places, objects, textures and stories, gathered and translated into nail designs.
