Author's note

Tiles by House of Lime is a free botanical dingbat font built from framed floral ornaments. Each symbol combines curling stems, leaves, and blossoms in dense, sharply cut silhouettes that recall paper cutting or small woodblock prints.

Designers working on garden, craft, and heritage-themed material will find it useful for packaging and event stationery. The compact pictures can also become section markers in publishing or repeated motifs on merchandise, since their enclosed shapes read as self-contained emblems. Its strongest role is decorative image-making, especially when a project needs plant ornament rather than conventional text.
