Let's be real here. I'm just a working class girl too poor to afford my own shop.

In my previous job as a senior florist, I was kept on minimum wage so there was no way I could save anything to put towards renting a proper shop when I started my own business. I was lucky to even get a bit of help from my family to start on my own in the first place. If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be here doing this.

I've been getting asked a lot lately why I'm not open and if I still have the studio. Yes, I'm still open, this is my passion, my full time job, my livelihood! BUT YOU MUST PRE ORDER! And here is why...

The studio is so tucked away that some days this year I didn't have a single person come in. This became heart breaking when I'd spent so much money on flowers which then went to waste. If I had a few walk in purchases throughout the day it would have been fine but none, one or two, isn't going to cut it.

I usually stock up on houseplants for people to buy as well as flowers but now the temperature has dropped, they will just die. Unfortunately the unit gets very cold and isn't insulated. (It's basically like having an outdoor shed). So until it warms up again next year, I'll only have plants in on special occasions (our Christmas market) or if you place an order.

By pre ordering you will help me to increase efficiency and reduce waste! No more stocking up the studio for a lot of it to get binned! I only order what I need.

If I'm not working on something in the studio, I'll usually be working from home responding to emails and doing everything else it takes to run a business. I'd just rather be doing it at home than freezing to death in the studio.

Hope this all makes sense!
All my problems would be solved if I had a proper shop but hey ho, I can only do what I have the means to do.

The business is steadily growing and getting busier and I have a very busy Christmas lined up with events and workshops. If you want a bouquet or anything else just remember to ORDER IN ADVANCE. 2 days is usually enough.

Hopefully one day we will have a proper shop 🤞

Thank you! Liv :-)

Breaking News 🚨 Peonies are back! Peonies are the one flower us florists are constantly asked for. Even though they're only in season for a couple of months of the year. I can't count the times confused boyfriends have walked into the shop asking for Peonies because it's their girlfriend's favourite. Only to be told they're out of season. Well now's your chance fellas!

Happy Mother's Day! 🤍🩷💛 I'm here at the courtyard making bouquets until 4 Still a few bouquets left! First come first served x The Levenshulme Antiques Village
