Flower Crowns 😍…

This week I’ve been trialing everlasting flower crowns for a wedding in July … What a JOY 💗

‘Flower Crowns & Fizz’ ideas were dancing around in my head a lot … what do you think 🤔 💃 🥂

Have a lovely Sunday ☀️ …

🌸 Business Card Restock… 🌸

Just a pretty picture to share, no change to the design apart from fancy rounded edges & a bit more info added on the back. I was hoping to do a redesign, but the creative brain wasn’t showing much enthusiasm at the point of reorder 😵‍💫 - next time!

Happy Tuesday… I’m off to create a flower crown for a bride, using everlasting blooms 😍🙌

Sustainable Farewell Flowers … 🤍

These flowers were gathered from the customer’s family garden. I carefully made them into separate raffia tired posies, that were put together to make one large floral display. After the service, the arrangement was simply taken apart & the posies were distributed to family & friends to enjoy in their own homes … leaving one larger posy at their loved one’s grave side 🤍

GBB farewell flower designs strive to be totally biodegradable, ensure there is no wastage & therefore as planet-friendly as possible 🌿

These beautiful garden flowers brought joy & went on to lift family & friends hearts after the funeral.

Plant friendly & beautiful 🌎

My thoughts are with this family & their community during this time 🙏

💗 B U T T O N H O L E S 💗

These buttonholes were created using colourful, organically grown, everlasting flowers … each one uniquely put together & bringing their own JOY to the wedding party 💃

Using everlasting flowers for buttonholes is a great idea, as they will last the day far better than most fresh flowers & can be enjoyed as keepsakes long after the wedding day too…

Pop me a message if you’d like to chat flowers - weddings, farewell flowers, gift bouquets or otherwise, I’d love to hear from you 💛

Have a fab day,

‘Thinking of you…’ 💐

Sometimes a gesture of flowery sunshine is the perfect gift, during tricky times.

GBB tulips are now very much done for the season, but there’s plenty of other gorgeous blooms coming through locally, which make the most beautiful bouquet ingredients for that special someone 💛

If you need a lovely bouquet, do drop me a message - I’ll always love to help if I can.

~ Colourful & Rustic April Wedding ~

I had the honour of creating these beautiful wedding flowers last weekend 💗

The brief was ‘rustic & colourful’ … and they were such a joy to create.

We decided on everlasting flowers for the buttonholes & locally grown spring flowers for the bridal bouquet & bridesmaids bouquets.

Thanks to for the beautiful selection of everlasting blooms & for the stunning fresh blooms… British, locally grown flowers at their best 🙏

Wishing the lovely bride & groom every happiness for the future 💫
