Some of the wreaths that I took to the Makers’ Market today which took place at The Hut behind ReadingLasses in Wigtown. I was sustained by excellent coffee and cake from ReadingLasses!Thank you to Jacqui and Claire who organised the event. The Hut was looking so pretty and festive. Thank you also to everyone who bought wreaths from me today. I hope that they will be much enjoyed. If you still want to order a Christmas door wreath or a table centrepiece I shall be delivering locally on Friday December 13th and Friday December 20th. Please see my website

Something nice in the woodshed! A wreath I finished last Friday as a gift for a couple who have very kindly allowed me to cut foliage from their beautiful garden.

I look forward to meeting you all at the weekend. Although everything that you need to make your wreath will be provided you are welcome to bring anything that you might have in your garden with you. I will have scissors and secateurs to lend you, but if you have some of your own that you like to use bring them with you.

I suppose it’s inevitable that my love of flowers should include floral fabrics and china. I have just finished redecorating my shower room, which was very much in need of some attention. It’s rather a dark little room, but it least it’s looking a lot fresher now. I managed to make the roller blind from the mechanism from the old one, which was frayed and had several squashed insects on it! I found the fabric in my stash, hoarded from a while back and made the lace curtain from a table cloth that I bought in Bruges more than forty years ago! The little jug and basin were a find from Wigtown Community Shop and the flowers are all from my garden. I’ve stopped my flower deliveries for this year but it’s always lovely to have some for my own house.

I feel as though it’s far too early to think about Christmas. I like to at least get past Halloween first! However, I have had a few enquiries about whether I will be making my Christmas wreaths to order again this year and whether I will be hosting any Christmas wreath making workshops. The answer to both questions is yes! More details about ordering Christmas wreaths later. I have two wreath making workshops planned taking place at The Hive in Glentrool Village and Billie, manager at The Hive has cleverly made up this poster with times, prices and details of how to book your place.

My late Mum had a saying, “do as I say, not as I do”. I’m breaking my own rules here as I always advise my customers not to display cut flowers in direct sunlight. These lovelies were sat on the steps up to my greenhouse yesterday evening, just briefly, for me to photograph them before I delivered them to my friend Iona, who will have them on sale at Galloway Heathers Garden Centre today and tomorrow. These will be my last flowers this year. The flowers are still lovely but I need to get my cut flower beds cleared to prepare for next year and I have a great many spring flowering bulbs to plant. A big thank you to everyone who has bought my flowers this year. I hope they have been much enjoyed. Thanks also to Iona and to Marcus at Galloway Heathers for having them on sale at the garden centre.

The dahlias are still blooming and some of my chrysanthemums are just starting, so I still have flowers this week. These four jam jar posies went off to Galloway Heathers Garden Centre in Minnigaff yesterday afternoon and they will be on sale until tomorrow.

Four pretty posies off to Galloway Heathers Garden Centre this morning where they will be on sale today and tomorrow. I don’t know how many more weeks I will have flowers. Once we have a hard frost they will be finished for this year.
