Today, I’m sharing something very close to my heart – the story behind the flowers I chose for my mum’s casket spray.

As a florist, creating this arrangement was deeply personal, a final tribute to the woman who inspired me in so many ways.

Creating a casket spray for my own mother was one of the most emotional arrangements I’ve ever made. My mum, Patricia, and I shared a lifelong love of flowers, and we even ran a flower shop together over twenty years ago – The Fletton Flower Fairies. She adored all flowers and all colors, but th...

Tribute flowers aren't always for funerals, sometimes it's nice to leave an arrangement on the grave for a special occasion, or just because.

Gone but never forgotten 🩷

I'm back!! I'm sorry for the silence, my Facebook account stolen back in July and last week I finally got it back!!

Apologies to those that had sent DMs during the past six months, and didn't receive a response.

But it's lovely to be back!!

A classic white and green posy. In this tribute we used three varieties of chrysanthemum: the daisy, the shamrock and the double white. Along with some white alstromeria and gypsophila to soften the foliage.

In shadows deep where sorrow lies,
A mournful heart with heavy sighs,
I'll paint a poem, raw and true,
To honor grief and guide you through.

Grief, a tempest fierce and wild,
Tears the soul just like a child,
It rends the fabric of our being,
Leaves us broken, forever seeing.

In depths of loss, we often dwell,
Where echoes of love begin to swell,
Each tear that falls, a precious token,
Of bonds once held, forever unspoken.

Through sleepless nights and endless days,
Grief's bittersweet, enduring haze,
We navigate the winding path,
Embracing memories of love's aftermath.

In grief's embrace, we find release,
A sacred solace, though it may not cease,
For tears, like rain, can heal the heart,
And mend the wounds that tear us apart.

Yet grief, a testament of love's grand range,
Reveals the depth in which our hearts can change,
For in the ache, a love remains,
A thread unbroken, even through the pains.

Let not the weight of sorrow's tide,
Consume the soul, nor joy subside,
But let it be a gentle guide,
To cherish life and love beside.

For in the tapestry of life we weave,
Grief's thread, a testament, believe,
That through the anguish and the strife,
Love endures, transcending life.

So let us honor grief's lament,
A sacred space, so deep, so meant,
To heal, to grow, to rise above,
And find solace in the arms of love.
