... what a view πΏπ€
... first time for everything π€
I have always loved being asked to create flowery dog collars for my couples so their fur baby can look the part
but
when my bride, Roslyn asked if I could create a flowery piece for her horse the excitement & nerves were high!
I don't know if you've noticed but horses are a lot bigger than dogs βΊοΈ so my brain was ticking with different ways to create this for them, worried it would be too small and get lost on him or it just not sitting right, but I do love part of my work - finding ways in which flowers can be worn
here they are, beautiful bride Roslyn & gorgeous boy Dudley.

& last but not least...it's springtime, flower lovers! π©·
so my list of favourite spring flowers wouldn't be complete without the tulip!!π·
these beauties are the epitome of spring, and the perfect way to brighten up any space or event.
whether you're looking to create a stunning centerpiece for your wedding or simply want to add a pop of color, tulips are the perfect choice.
with a wide range of tulip varieties, the possibilities are endless when it comes to incorporating these beauties.
+ they are incredibly versatile and can be mixed and matched with other seasonal blooms to create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
they are not only beautiful but also symbolize love and happiness, making them the perfect addition to your special day.
I am excited to share with you another favourite spring flower of mine - Anemones! πΈ
These delicate flowers are the perfect addition to any spring wedding bouquet.
Their simple yet elegant appearance makes them a popular choice for brides looking for a unique touch to their special day.
Anemones come in a range of colors, from classic white with a black centre to bold and beautiful shades of pink, purple, and blue, making them a versatile choice for any wedding theme.
In some cultures, anemones symbolize anticipation and excitement for what's to come - making them a perfect choice for a wedding day.
What do you think of these beauties?! π
Spring is finally here and that means that wedding season is upon us!
I couldn't be more excited to share with you one of my favorite spring flowers that are perfect for weddings. From pastels to bold colors, it's a perfect flower for every bride.
The ranunculus.
These blooms come in a range of colors from bright oranges and yellows to soft pinks and whites. They have a delicate, almost paper-like texture that makes them a beautiful addition to any bouquet or arrangement.
Aren't they lush?! π©·

I'm going to let you in on a secret
..
in my first few years of floristry, I HATED doing flower crowns
I found it very tedious & frustrating
BUT
over the years I have learned to love them & I now find it very relaxing.
& when the outcome looks like this, it's hard to not love the process ππ€
