Iron Orchid Designs' By Any Other Name transfer set uses the illustrations of Paul De Longpré,  featuring a classic collection of roses paired with birds and butterflies. The antique prints were sourced directly from a dealer and were chosen from a book of De Longpré’s rose studies. A contemporary of Katarina Klein, his work was often compared to hers for its expressive handling of botanicals, though each artist had a distinct approach. Sally curated a selection of prints that preserved the character and detail of the original compositions.

The florals pair effortlessly with the added nature elements and typography, giving makers the freedom to build large arrangements or use individual motifs for smaller projects. Whether applied to furniture, wall décor, or mixed media pieces, By Any Other Name brings together timeless botanical imagery in a format that works beautifully across a variety of creative styles.

Iron Orchid Designs Decor Transfers are easy to use and add instant style to your projects. They are delicate and need gentle handling but the results are stunning.

Prep is key - keep your Iron Orchid Designs decor Transfer with its backing sheet until you're ready to use. Keep free of dust and debris which will interfere with adhesion. Don't allow the IOD Decor Transfer to touch anything before application or allow the sticky side touch itself. Don't store in humid conditions or extreme temperatures.

Application - start with a clean matte surface. If painted, make sure the paint has fully cured before you start. Seal your project with a water based sealer before application. Remove the IOD Decor Transfer from its backing and place in position - you can use pieces of low tack tape to hold it in place. Using the plastic tool provided rub the image to stick it to the surface. If any parts haven't stuck simply place the transfer back into position and rub again. You can use your hand, a lint free cloth or the transfer's backing paper to burnish the transfer after application to ensure it is firmly stuck in place. Seal with a good quality water based sealer like Frenchic Finishing Coat.
