Happy belated birthday to me, Hannah 🤣 it was 20 days ago so none of you need to make a fuss. It was pretty low key this year…

Look at this book I was given by my wonderful neighbour last night, my belated pressie. I can’t wait to read it. Many of you will know my house is like a jungle with a lot of house plants. It sounds like an interesting read, I will report back.

Happy birthday to my business partner and friend

She should have had a nice relaxing day today but has been home with poorly Jack so let’s all show her some birthday love 🎂

I tried to find a nice photo of us together to post here. It seems all we have is bad selfies to each other, demonstrating how many chins we have, how tired we look or how angry we are. What a wonderful business partner I am not sharing any of these images. Instead, here is a nice one of her and a younger Ivy.

Happy birthday dear.

We’ve had more than a week of sunny days this June and it’s been heavenly. It feels like summer is finally here and the flowers are popping up everywhere.

We’ve been super busy and have another chocca week ahead. Still managed to squeeze in an early birthday surprise for Zannah on Friday evening visiting for their terrarium workshop. What a lovely evening it was; if you haven’t already visited Tony and his colleagues at the shop in Bedford, make sure you go this week. You will come out armed with glorious houseplants and perhaps one of these amazing candles from which fill the room with scent. We snaffled the last two eucalyptus and lemon balm ones, they are incredible.

Look at my pretty terrarium with built in lights, it’s a beaut if I may say so myself. No photos from the workshop, we were too busy putting the world to rights with Tony and scoffing chocolate.

Have a peaceful Sunday peeps 🌿

Practice, practice, practice! We may have been doing this years but both Hannah and I feel that regular practice and experimentation is the key to continuing to keep our ideas fresh and our skills honed.

This weekend was no exception, Hannah was busy in the shop, whilst I enjoyed a weekend with my family. Whilst there I got to truly indulge in the delights of my mum's flower cutting patches and mature garden. What is better that picking from the cream of the crop to practice some different wedding bouquet palettes.

I went for a deep Red, Blue and Cerise palette with dark Burgundy foliage and then a complete opposite of a frothy, pretty early summer muted pastel mix.

Molly and Craig .anne4 you are simply the best!

Molly came in this morning to say thank you for their wedding flowers and brought the ultimate treat from delicious! The icing even matches the peonies we have in today…

Happy Thursday everyone ❤️

** BOOK NOW! - FLORAL WORKSHOP**🌷🌸
For this floral workshop, Parent Carers will create a beautiful terrarium, under the expert guidance of Hannah and Zannah from Rosehip bespoke floristry

(For those who don't know, a terrarium is like an aquarium but for plants instead of fish! It is made in just about any glass container, and is planted to look like a miniature garden).

The cost is £17.50 per person and all you need to bring along is yourself. A BDCPS staff member will be there to keep your coffee cup and snack plate replenished!

This will be held at Kempston Hammers Sports and Social Club, 134 High Street, Kempston, MK42 7BN (the building is accessible and there is plenty of parking on site) on Thursday the 21st of March 1 - 2:30pm.

*** Please note that this is an adult only session as there will not be BDCPS staff available to look after children and young people ***

A bowl of reflective stuff. Celebrating the leftovers of Mother’s Day after a long day at work - the broken stems and side shoots and baby hyacinths. Thinking of my Mum, wishing she had met Zannah’s Mum, as they would have had a blast. Grateful I have a business partner who has been wonderfully supportive the last couple of days (she is always supportive, I’ve just been a moody/snappy/teary/huggy crazy lady more than usual in the past 48 hours 🤣).

Always grateful and overwhelmed by our lovely customers. Delivering bouquets today was different, but in a lovely way. Taking a few extra moments to see the smile on their faces when they were greeted with a flowery surprise. Thank you, as always, for supporting our little florist shop.

I hope you have had a peaceful Sunday and found a bowl of reflective stuff like me.

P.S. Finally found the right moment to light a meditation candle from what a perfect gift for someone. Reflective bowl of stuff completed before the candle had gone out. They do what they say on the tin ❤️

This week, with we created a woodland walk in Asda’s huge Milton Keynes store for the launch of Stacey’s homeware launch.

All flowers were British, including the foliage and moss; we were determined to show everyone that installations like this can be done using foam free mechanics in a sustainable way. The arrangements were only insitu for a short time, so we used bulbs as well as cut flowers, as these could be planted up afterwards outside and enjoyed year on year.

We aren’t your traditional High Street florist shop, we are a bespoke florist using solely British flowers and foliage to create floral designs, installations, wedding florals, farewell tributes, gift bouquets…the list is endless. Whatever you need, we can most likely create but always in a foam free way.

We are taking Mother’s Day orders but space is limited, so do get in touch to preorder. Or you can book a space on our Mother’s Day workshop and create a vase arrangement (book via our website) using ingredients shown in Stacey’s bouquet we gifted her. A pleasure to meet such a lovely lady yesterday, she gives good hugs 🤗

Happy Friday everyone!

On this grey rainy day, let’s look at gorgeous Jane on her wedding day, 22nd December 2023. It was a joy to create a bridal bouquet amongst all the Christmas wreath madness.

It makes us so happy when we get an email from our brides with such lovely feedback. Jane was the dream bride - all she asked for was seasonal British flowers and she loved what we created and has left us a glowing Google review. Thank you Jane ❤️

We had the most beautiful pics in our inbox this week from from A & K's wedding on New Years eve at the gorgeous . really has such beautiful touch to his wedding shots so please do look him up if you are yet to find your wedding photographer.

This was our very last wedding of 2023 and what was even more special for us, was this was our last ever wedding to include both British and Dutch flowers.

A&K had booked in well before we took the decision to go all British in the shop, so of course we had to honour their floral choices, and what pretty choices they were! Striking burgundy and white mixed with seasonal foliage paired with lots of British freesia to add such a heavenly scent.

This year however we will be working with the very best of what our local flower farmers and those around the country have to offer. In part it is our bid to be working in a more sustainable way. We will also work with the ebb and flow of the seasons. Something we are very much looking forward to. Why not follow our journey this year, we have some exciting posts, videos, and reels planned. 🫶
