FLORISTS SAVE THE DAY!
We pulled this little beauty of the bag for a last-minute request.
With just a moments notice, we were able to create this bespoke bridal bouquet 💐. There is nothing better than coming to a local shop of skilled florists!
You certainly wouldn't get this kind of service from a supermarket or online retail giant!

The shop is looking particularly colourful today, loaded with teacher gifts. Prices from just £3.00!
My personal favourites are the chocolate cosmos, which smell amazing and stand at almost 1 metre high. Another are these spectacular orchids. The shop is lovely and cool on this summer day.🌻🌷🪻🌺🪴

It's that time of year again when we thank our lovely teachers for all of their hard work.
With a wide selection of affordable gifts, we are sure you will find something special.
