Deathly Delicate

13/10/2026

Allow me to reintroduce myself!
Hey, I’m Lillee also known as deathlydelicate (or that weird bug girl)
During covid I taught myself how to pin insects and process bones and instantly fell in love with the process. I started Deathly Delicate in 2021 as a passion project to create pieces for my own collection which quickly grew into creating pieces for friends and family then into markets appearances and being in physical stores. I never thought a girl with her love for bugs would get this far. When I’m not creating in the studio, I’m working full time in the water industry or spending time with my husband and dog.

I’m a sucker for a moth, I have such a soft spot for them and their fuzziness. The white witch moth (Thysania agrippina) is no exception. These guys are famous in the insect world for having the biggest wing span with some reaching a massive 36cm in width!
