Loved taking part in the St Nicholas Church flower celebration!

For anyone struggling right now, I want you to know that there is a butterfly in each and every one of us.

Life can be hard, but you have the capacity to grow and adapt to life's challenges. Don't stop pushing to discover your true worth. Always be truthful with others but most importantly yourself. Spread your wings little butterfly 🦋

Arrangement at St Nicholas Church Dereham for their flower festival.

The theme was Memorable Journey's and I decided to do my theme on the journey of the Caterpillar. The green arrangement being the Caterpillar, the dried arrangement being the Cocoon and the colourful arrangement being the Butterfly.

The Caterpillar goes through a huge transition and in our lives this is also inevitable. Transitions can be scary and you may feel that just like the Caterpillar you think the world is ending. However by growing and learning as an individual you too can become as beautiful as the Butterfly.

Don't stop working and evolving. Life is hard but it's the way you adapt that counts. Don't stop dreaming and believing because just like that Caterpillar you have the power to be so incredibly beautiful and become that Butterfly 🦋

I wish I had better photography skills to do the beautiful bouquet justice. It was an absolute pleasure creating this display. Inspired by the person's story and the song by Michael Bublé, this bespoke bouquet is called 'Home'.

There is a lack of support or check ups for endometriosis. The disease is under researched, without a cure and can be left to worsen and can cause severe, chronic pain. More funding is needed to improve treatment options and increase research.

The beauty in ageing 💜🧡🩵

Starting a business in my mid-late 30’s I often question whether I started my business too late in life. I look around at others who have more youth on their side and wonder if I did this all too late. However, in my business journey I have been so blessed to meet so many other fantastic businesse...

New Blog on the website: https://www.thefloraltrojan.co.uk/post/the-endo-trojan-getting-the-diagnosis-of-endometriosis

This is my personal journey about getting diagnosed with Endometriosis. I want to send the message that you know your own body and if something doesn't feel right, keep fighting for the answers. You deserve to be heard, listened to, and for your pain to be investigated!

Endometriosis UK support forums are there to offer peer support.

New blog on the website. The language of Floriography.

When I started researching the secret language of flowers (Floriography) I got so engrossed with this subject. I am a big believer that flowers can say things that sometimes words can't. To give flowers can express love, care, warmth, peace, health, etc. I found it so heart warming that in Victorian...

I delivered a bespoke arrangement yesterday to the beautiful Brisley Bell for a special ladies 30th birthday. She loves big white flowers and Eryngiums.

The arrangement was arranged in a beautiful ceramic bread container, which she will be able to keep and use once the flowers have passed.
A lovely way to say you're special with flowers and a gift you can keep afterwards!

I love doing meaningful and different arrangements!
