• Sir David Attenborough •
Sir David is such an inspiration. His lifelong commitment to broadcasting and nature is incredible! We grew up watching the Natural World and the Planet Earth shows on TV.
Happy 98th birthday 🎂
And yes, I have David Attenborough earrings. Like I said, I'm a huge supporter

• Who wears Buttonholes? •
Traditionally, the Groom, Best Man, Groomsmen, Fathers & Grandfathers of the couple and whomever is giving the Bride away.
It's not uncommon for Bridesmaids and Mothers/Grandmother's of the couple to wear them too, they're often styled differently as corsages.

• Cloud 9 •
So incredibly proud and excited to announce that I'm a finalist at the Sustainable Wedding Awards in the 'Sustainable Start-Up' category 🌷
Being sustainable is at the core of what I do here at Somerset Blooms. It isn't a label with me, it isn't just switching to recyclable packaging it's much deeper, it's the daily actions I take to be sustainable, my attitude to the future of Somerset Blooms, my goals, my client journey and it's the belief that floral artistry doesn't need to cost the Earth.
Almost 2 years ago I set out on a mission to break the divide between eco & luxury and that's exactly what's happening 🌿 what was once an idea has come to life!
There are other amazing businesses who join me as finalists too and I cannot wait to celebrate with them in February at the awards ceremony.
Roll on February!

• Workshop Heaven •
So so lucky to be crafting and making wreaths with the people who have booked so far, I've had a blast at the last 3 workshops in collaboration with Duke Street Food and Drink Market
I guide the group through 3 main elements to wreath making, base, foliage & decoration. You should see them, some amazing wreaths have been created over the last week or so.

So much depth in this bouquet with layers of Roses and spray Roses at different heights to draw the eye in to the design.

• Flower Friday •
This week I've decided to mix it up a little and do a quick clip of my flower Friday bloom.
Celosia
🌿 Known as Crested cockscomb
🌿 Belongs to the Amaranth family
🌿 Can be grown indoors or outdoors and is fairly easy to grow and care for
🌿 These are actually considered to be weeds in China

• Happy place •
We all have a place that calms us, for some it's their bed, others it's the garden, everyone is different. For me it's listening to water. Standing here allowed me to switch off, recharge and come back with bags of energy!
Where's your happy place?

• Raw •
No music, no gifs, just nature doing it's thing. There's something about the sound of water that is calming and soothing and this is exactly how I want my clients to feel working with me...calm, inspired and feeling at ease.
Happy Bank Holiday everyone!

• Cohesiveness •
It's important to me to have a cohesive design template for weddings, events, brand styling and corporate floristry projects. The idea is to ensure a smooth visual journey for the client when looking at each individual design and being able to see the links which create an overall theme or story.
Telling a story with flowers isn't just about matching colours, it's about texture, intention and knowing the meaning and symbols behind specific flowers and foliages and ensuring these exhibit the story the client wants to tell their audience.
Where can I find imagery you ask? Anywhere! From your travels, Google, Pinterest, IG, FB, magazines.
