🀍 Whites & Greens 🀍

I never thought I would love this palette as much as I do, but their is such joy in the simplicity of it.

Another wonderful wedding I had the pleasure of flowering at the weekend. Such a beautiful couple who oozed love and support for each other (M&L, such a pleasure 🫢)

I come away with a full heart after every wedding. There really is pure delight in seeing the excitement and buzz of activity in the lead up to the special moment.

I'm already taking bookings for 2025, so dont delay, I look forward to the pleasure of meeting many more couples 🩷

If we can't make use of leftover event blooms, the dream team plucks off every petal to make floral confetti 🩷

These will be dried slowly and produce gorgeous, colourful wedding confetti.

The remaining stems get composted at home to feed the blooms next year 🫢

Minimising waste and creating another beautiful product. Happy days!

Back to flower, a gorgeous wedding full of brights πŸ©·πŸ§‘πŸ’œ

It was lovely to come back to the gardens and see familiar faces again after too long away!

The sun came out just in time for a ceremony at the stunning summer house.

If you love the idea of walking through a tunnel of wisteria and being surrounded by stunning woodlands while you say I do, then Deer Park is a venue worth a visit 😍

It was such fun to get creative again after a long, cold winter!

We are finally emerging from hibernation πŸ™Œ

Soooo glad to be cutting again and just in time for Easter. Bunches of tulips and mixed bouquets will be available from Thursday on our flower cart. Pop me a message if you need some flowers reserved.

Tulips pulled with bulbs on for extra stem length.

Anemones with some impressive stem length thanks to the warmth of the tunnel!

Ranunculus in bud and ready to harvest by Thursday.

I'm throwing over growing today!

I set myself a challenge to try 40 new things in my 40th year, and pottery lessons were one for the list! A thoughtful birthday gift from some wonderful friends.

I met the wonderful Sabine today to have my first pottery lesson in her studio. An amazingly patient and calm instructor, perfect for a complete beginner!

Starting small with bowls today, but I'm hoping my next creation can be the perfect vessel for my flowers πŸ’

I encourage anyone to try something new this year and break out of your comfort zone. You may find a new hobby to bring out your creative side ✨️
