Here’s a thought …. in 12 weeks time my first evening workshop would have already ended! Your Luxury Christmas door wreaths are taken home and proudly displayed on doors around the community. Nothing pleases me more than catching sight of them around my village and receiving photos from customers further afield. So this year, if this is something you’ve always wanted to try, why not book with me for some festive fun? No experience necessary, all welcome!

Are you ready yet to embrace the beauty of a new season?🍁
It was definitely feeling autumnal in my garden today and as much as I long to hold on to summer, I do love witnessing nature change right before my eyes!
I’m excited to introduce a new palette of colours into my future floral designs using warm reds, ochre and peach flowers, intertwined with deep green and burgundy foliage.
A perfect combination for a stunning gift/bouquet/door wreaths that will add a warm and cosy feel to anyone’s home.

Earlier today I received a lovely message regarding this beautiful country garden inspired design. It’s always a privilege to create sympathy flowers for your loved ones.
The flowers were beautiful Jo - just want we envisaged . Thank you so much xx

Lots of thought always goes into organising a funeral and every little detail is important. I was asked to design a floral arrangement to soften an entrance table at a wake. This table would be used to display treasured photographs of a special man. I agreed this was a lovely idea for family and friends to remember happier times.

So this evening I attempted to take some new photos of my dogs. Barney was happy to pose unlike Rosie ….

The theme for my recent wedding was pretty pink petals 🌸
A traditional church wedding where I delivered a gorgeous ceremony table arrangement which was then moved to Le Talbooth in Dedham. Something I always recommend to do.
The stunning table centrepieces complimented the brides flowers perfectly and decorated each table in style.
Many congratulations to the happy couple!!!

Wedding season has well and truly arrived! & so has this glorious weather. Long may this continue….
My flower studio is full to the brim with lists, vases, ribbons, pins, buckets, boxes and of course flowers 🌸 Each wedding is unique and that’s what I love about being a florist. It’s truly an honour to play an important part in a couple’s special day and I love the buzz of what goes on behind the scenes in the build up to the big event.
If you are looking for a wedding florist, find someone who is as enthusiastic about your vision as you are!

💐New wedding flower trends for 2025💐
The world of floral design is evolving like never before and 2025 offers some bold and vibrant colour palettes and trends for wedding florals, blooming with creativity. Think interesting combinations of tropical blooms and wildflowers. Country-style themed arrangements and jewel-toned blooms like deep purples, rich reds, and vibrant oranges, contrasted with lush greenery. All of these will create stunning visuals that will leave your guests in awe.
These new trends move away from classic ivory and pastel shades to much brighter colour palettes that bring a sense of energy and excitement to any event. Creating an atmosphere that is visually captivating with bold and vibrant colours will certainly make a powerful statement. Who will be brave enough to embrace this new trend?
I for one am ready to be captivated by 2025 innovative designs and if you would like to discuss your floral wedding vision with me, whatever style you choose, I’d love to hear from you. You can easily drop me a message via my website www.flowerswithfinesse.co.uk

What a difference a day makes!
Yesterday I was outside admiring my wisteria in the glorious sunshine, captivated by its beauty. It was full of beautiful busy little bees 🐝 happily going about their business.
Today I can only watch it from my window because it’s STILL raining ☔️ I’m so hoping to get out into the garden this weekend and I’m sure you all are too!
Let’s all pray 🙏 that this weather improves so that we can enjoy the bank holiday outside! Perhaps you might be lucky enough to spot some stunning wisteria on your travels. If you do, stop what you’re doing and take a closer look 👀

On this rather blustery day I visited the award winning 🌿’Beth Chatto’s Gardens’🌿with a lovely friend and what a joyful time we had!
Surrounded by glorious plants and trees, the dismal weather really didn’t matter 🌳🌳🌳
An idyllic environment, planted by the late Beth Chatto OBE (1923-2018) who began her garden in 1960. The original overgrown wasteland has been transformed into an ecological and sustainable garden. Through working with nature and using her exceptional skill and knowledge for planting, each area of the garden thrives with beauty. A leisurely walk around Beth Chatto’s gardens will inspire you to create something special in your own garden space. To purchase a plant 🌱 from her vast collection, bring it home, watch it grow and enjoy it for years to come is a very special thing. I hope some of Beth’s expertise will rub off on me when I’m next pottering around my own country style garden 🪴

Thought I’d post this bright & beautiful bouquet to cheer you all up
on this rather wet Monday!💐
The weather wants to be sunny but keeps getting rudely interrupted by strong downpours of rain, hail and gusts of wind 🌧️ not what you want when out delivering flowers!!
Oh well, in case you would like to know, this beauty consists of yellow irises, orange roses, pink carnations, lilac stocks, lush foliage and a beautiful blue Dutch hydrangea. Simply gorgeous 💐

🌸🌿🌷My goal this week was to make myself a Spring door wreath before my Easter break and here it is!
After hanging it I realised it wasn’t hung straight but I’ve decided I rather like it like this. I’ll gather family opinion later but as I live with men I’m not sure they’ll be that bothered. So this video is for all my flower followers who love a door wreath just as much as I do!
It would have been my Gran’s 96th birthday today and she always celebrated Easter and treated her grandchildren to lots of chocolate Easter treats. So today I remember her and to display this Spring wreath feels rather apt.
Wishing you all a happy Easter break💐
(I’ll be back to work on Tuesday 2nd April but I’m contactable via my website) www.flowerswithfinesse.co.uk

To accompany yesterday’s sympathy arrangement, I also made an assortment of floral tribute letters.
Each letter is adorned with an abundance of delicate white chrysanthemums, edged with ribbon and embellished with decorative flowers to honour the memory of a much loved ‘Mum’, ‘Grandma’ and ‘Sis’ter. A fitting farewell to a much loved lady.

Do you ever have such a massive list of things to do but you go off on a tangent and do something completely unrelated?
🐣🌿🐣🌿🐣🌿🐣🌿
Well this was me today when I decided to decorate my country kitchen with some Easter embellishments.
If you know me, you won’t be surprised!
Have I inspired you?
