šŸ¦ŒREBEL REINDEERšŸ¦Œ

You didnā€™t think Iā€™d have a day where I didnā€™t post a picture of another wreath did you? Meet the next one of our designs.

Itā€™s another fairly traditional mix of decorations including a little wooden reindeer nestled in the pines. This oneā€™s for the Budders who love dried fruit, pinecones and even nuts plus whole oranges on their wreaths. It also includes gorgeous glass baubles that catch the light in the sunshine.

This one is a massive version, almost 20 inches in diameter! Great for gated driveways!!!

Oh go on Iā€™ll spoil you to another bouquet from today xx

These lilyā€™s are going to burst open in a few days and this bouquet will magically be twice the size! Iā€™m having a bit of a crush on Lilyā€™s at the moment, theyā€™re such a great flower!

Big impact large headed blooms, great colours, scented and long lasting.

I know theyā€™re not for everyone but in my opinion they tick all the boxes and sit at a reasonable price point considering what you get.

I know I know I know, Iā€™m barking on about Christmas wreaths ALOT! ā€¦and Iā€™m not going to stop but have a piccie of one of our subscription bouquets to break it up a bit. They make pretty awesome gifts too btw.

Set up a subscription with a bouquet to gift on Christmas Day, how lovely would that be šŸŽ„šŸŒø

p.s youā€™d need a bouquet delivered or ready to collect on Christmas Eve Eve to do this. We can put them in water and you just need to keep them cool and safe until the 25th. Iā€™ll be busy opening presents with my own family on Christmas Day so no deliveries 24th or 25th of December :)

I love you xx

There are a core of tartan lovers and celts who can only have a Christmas wreath that includes thistles and a tartan ribbon and Iā€™m here for it!

They do offer everything you need for a great traditional, cosy entrance to your festive paradise I must say.

Action shot from this evenings workshop.

These guys have been making their own wreaths for a good few years now, they were fab. Honestly they didnā€™t really need me at allā€¦which is handy since I stabbed my thumb with a pair of secateurs earlier this afternoon and was trying not to use it too too much šŸ˜‚

Really though, I had a lovely time catching up with them and seeing the gorgeous wreaths they produced with a little inspiration from one of my champagne shimmy wreaths on display at the shop šŸ„‚

Thank you for choosing Bits and Buds again ###

šŸŽ€CHAMPAGNE SHIMMYšŸŽ€

This Christmas wreath is for all the girly girls, very mindful very demure

Itā€™s so pretty and cutesy, soft blush pink details with baubles and butterflies to boot all finished off with a pretty satin bow. Gorge

Hands up if this oneā€™s a bit you?

This is one of our medium sized wreaths that measure approx 14inches across.

ā˜ƒļøWINTER WONDERLANDā˜ƒļø

Iā€™d say a snow today is definitely the right day to showcase another of our Christmas wreath collection!

This one is such a beauty, perfect for the white and green lovers out there with timeless style and navy, sage and black front doors!! (All other colours look perfectly awesome too)

These wreaths never look as gorgeous as they are in real life on the grid. Itā€™s one of those designs that no sooner than I make one and put it on display itā€™s been snapped up and hung on a door within the hour ā„ļø

Big thanks to one of my repeat customers for letting me pap this beaut on her door to share with all you other Budders šŸ˜Š

Oh and you should also know, this oneā€™s another adorably tinkly one with silver jingle bells throughout! Itā€™s a little bit magical.

New picture to update the hello bit on my website casually showing off an example of our seasonal bouquet available to order very soon!

I love it, this oneā€™s a large version and itā€™s definitely giving festive vibes.

Do you love it? Iā€™d love to know xx and if thereā€™s anything youā€™d like to know about me, my bits and buds journey, who i am then ask away šŸ˜šŸ‘‡šŸ˜

šŸ˜ŠGINGERBREAD JINGLEšŸ˜Š

I thought I should introduce you to all the Bits and Buds wreaths on the grid this coming week, one by one.

There are 8 designs to choose from and thereā€™s something to suit everyone.

There are some really good names for them too, Iā€™m very proud of them and I hope you love them too.

Meet Gingerbread Jingle, a traditional and natural little number packed with scented greens, oranges, cinnamon sticks and star anise PLUS little details of dried flower heads, little wooden shapes including gingerbread men and vintage buttons! Honestly vintage, like from the 50ā€™s-80ā€™s from a tin full Iā€™ve been hoarding from my mum for years. Itā€™s time they brought others some joy.

And letā€™s not forget the jingle part of the name as they also have gold jingle bells and glass baubles to add twinkle and a festive ti**le every time you open and close your door. Finished off with a big hessian bow.

Who loves a fruity natural wreath like this? Drop me a šŸ˜ emoji in the comments and show this wreath some love ###

ā€œThis is the best moment of my life!ā€

And thatā€™s the quote of this afternoons workshop. Frankly, I couldnā€™t agree more, the joy a glittery humming bird can bring is immesurable!

Another great creative time together with new Budders! Thanks for coming, I had such a good time with you all xx

Mmmmm, this flower stand mixed with all the beginnings of wreath season smells insane!

A flower shop during the festive season is worth a visit for that alone!!!

Loving these colours too, deep rich plums and rubies with soft blush and crisp whites.

Do you love the smell of the florists too?

Right, what is actually going on, thereā€™s a Christmas wreath on the shop door already!!! ā€¦until some one buys it that is.

Place your bets on how long until it gets snapped up šŸ˜‚šŸŽ‰

Also, the Christmas shop is live on the website so you can place your door wreath orders now. Slots are filling fast. Link in bio to take you straight to the website xx

It was cosy, it was cute and it was classy.

The first wreath workshop of the season was last night at the shop and everyone was a total joy to have and made really gorgeous wreaths šŸ˜šŸŽ„

Can you believe itā€™s the first public, fully involved workshop Iā€™ve actually held in here! When I took on the space it was always the plan and it was so lovely to welcome you in. It is snug, but the bonus to that is that every decoration imaginable is in arms reachā€¦including glitter humming birds hanging from the ceiling šŸ˜‚ swipe to enjoy more picsšŸŽ„

Canā€™t wait to host the rest of you booked in for this year. Thank you for choosing Bits and Buds ###

Our wreath workshops are now fully booked and we donā€™t have any more dates to release. Donā€™t want to miss out next year then head over to the website and join our mailing list to be the first to know next year.

The shop is under Christmas construction and so too are some festively fabulous, yet totally applicable for the whole season bouquets.

I believe a Christmas bouquet should be tasteful and something youā€™d love to receive at any time of the year so I donā€™t stuff them full of bulky red chrysanthemums and carnations.

Thereā€™s nothing wrong with those flowers but I like to mix them up a bit with things like orchid heads and lisianthus to keep our signature soft and wild looking style.

Lest we forget.

I found this remembrance day harder than some. When will we learn to be United and not divided.

The little people like us are the ones to make it a kinder more understanding place, we are all the same really. Thereā€™s never a good reason for wars and loss of lives in conflict.

I remember them and think of all those caught up in horrific conflict today.

šŸŽ„CHRISTMAS. IS. COMINGšŸŽ„

If thatā€™s peaked your interest why not have a little browse of the 8 (yes 8) wreath designs, door swags and fresh spruce garlands on my website and get your orders in early doors. Donā€™t miss out on the one you want as some designs are limited!ā™„ļø

Are you ready to dip your toe into your decorations or do you want to dive head first into it already?
