R A G D A L E // this year we have had the pleasure of dressing the highly revered Ragdale Hall. Set in the rolling landscape of the Leicestershire country side, we worked closely with the gardeners gathering materials such as hydrangea heads, wild carrot and agapanthus seed heads from the grounds to add to installations. Together with an abundance of crushed velvet swags and bows we created a look that felt opulent yet natural and timeless.
I hope you get chance to visit this incredible place, for many reasons and now to have a look at the decorations…

“Season of Abundance” 🍂
It started with warm hugs, fresh coffee and delight the rain had stopped. What followed was hours of laughter, music, creativity and sheer joy…
We built a glorious foam free arch, with branches of twisted willow, silver birch, wisteria, hydrangea and all the delights hedgerows have to offer…
After a delicious lunch showcasing the finest the Vale of Belvoir, it was up the scaffolding to work out how to fly an organic design high in the ceiling of the church….
Then onto windows, where the light danced through the reeds and roses… oh there is so much more to come!
My heart is full meeting these glorious humans and all coming together to dive into free creativity, where the only brief is that we have to be done by the time the party starts…
What a gang:
