My little flower seedlings are starting to show their heads - spent the weekend potting dahlias up and put my autumn sown sweet peas out into their patch - it’s exciting to feel that Spring is finally on its way and everything is starting to grow - it’s going to be a flower filled summer! 😀

Hello Hellebore! I’ve been wanting these in the garden for ages…an impromptu visit to the garden centre and this little beauty was half price. I couldn’t resist! Is there a flower you’ve always wanted to grow?

Finally my Christmas wreath is up. I’ve been so busy so far this December that it’s taken me till now to get this made - but isn’t she a wild beauty! All my materials were sourced locally and it was made on a eco sustainable base of straw and moss so no plastic nasties!

Wreath detail - Rosemary, ivy, rosehips, fir, pine cones, dried oranges and sea holly

I think I’m in love with sunflowers…first year on my plot I grew bog standard ones, this year I’ve gone for more unusual varieties - these three are the first to show their heads. Beautiful don’t you think?

A trio of nature: creating these has been such a joy. The smell in my studio is reminiscent of a summer meadow. I’ve been busy making more wreaths as I’m off to my first craft fair this weekend so these will take pride of place on my stall - until then I get to enjoy them for a little while…

So happy with my little bunch of flowers - picked today from my plot. Cosmos, acroclinium, lavender,ammi majus, rose, sweet peas and the bluest cornflowers ever! So much nicer than shop bought carnations don’t you think?

Shades of blue, white and green.
The main cutting patch is looking so pretty now all the cornflowers are coming into bloom - most of these I’ll be cutting for drying but I’ll keep some for display, along with some of the ammi majus as it’ll look gorgeous in a jug on my mantelpiece!

A ring of floral pretty-ness in willow… Looking forward to a weekend of sunshine - off to my plot early today to tend my flowers, then some more crafting on the table in the garden I think, as it’s already such a beautiful day.
Hope you have a lovely day too everyone and enjoy the summer sun (and remember the sun cream - that’s the mother in me coming out!😁)

Hi, I’m Stephanie, the face behind on my little plot where I grow a wide variety of flowers and grasses – in lots of different hues and texture - some for drying, some intended as cut flowers for my home, or for friends and family, and a range of vegetables and fruit, all of which keeps me very busy, but very happy as I love gardening!
I first started working with dry flowers many years ago, then sadly they fell out of fashion and I hung up my floristry tools while I brought up my then young family. Family has always been important to me and, although my daughter and son are now fully grown, I still spend a lot of time with them. I’m also blessed to have two beautiful grandchildren now, who fill my heart with their happiness and joy of life.
It was my daughter who suggested I started to work with everlasting flowers again – she remembered the floral baskets and wreaths I made for my family and friends as gifts, and she knew how much pleasure I had in creating them. And happily everlasting flowers are now back in fashion so I’m overjoyed to be able to work with such beauty again. The muted scent and gentle hues of dried flowers now fill my days, as I spend time in my little studio working on my new botanical creations. So here I am, many years later, a whole lot wiser I hope, but still that young woman at heart with an innate love of nature and all it’s beauty, which I hope to share with you all.

I’ve fallen in love with the delicate pastel hues and textures of everlasting flowers. If I could only capture the smell of them in a photograph - soft and dusky like a warm summer’s evening…

I’ve been so busy this past year with all the day to day stuff, earning just enough to get by in a job which takes up all my time and leaves me mentally and physically exhausted. And I’ve realised I’ve not been following my dreams, but just existing…Another year is nearly over and I’m no further on in life, I’m just another year older, with no real plan for the future. I guess it’s because it’s easier to stay in the the same rut and not push yourself, especially if you’re the worrying type like me. Not to say that my life is all bad - my family are the light of my life, and fill my heart with love but there are still too many days when I struggle with my mental health, when I’m lonely, tired and depressed and this is especially so in the dark winter months. It’s all to easy to find reasons not to try something, to talk yourself out of trying new things just because you think they might not work…it’s a waste of money, time or effort; I’m too old to try something new, there’s always someone else younger doing it better, who, with the energy of youth are doing it with more far more style and panache than I ever could. I’m also conscious of how my time on earth is running out and how I need to get things sorted so that I can finally get to where I want to be. However, looking back on what I’d achieved the year before, I realise how growing flowers made me happy and how just being outside with my hands in the soil quieted my ever anxious soul. I also realise how much I managed in just a year and with so very little space - I still managed to grow some beautiful flowers. So this is the year I will plan for a new future - to follow my passions wherever that takes me…here’s to new beginnings! #newbeginnings #winterdepression #followingmydreams #growingflowersismypassion #growingthingsmakesmehappy #flowergardener #cutflowerpatch #cutflowergarden #cutflowergarden #flowergrower #smallgrower #followingmypassion #growingformentalhealth #newb

Designed by nature

Don’t you just love the sight of colourful tiny wildflowers that bloom everywhere in our hedgerows in the Spring? Or the feel of Summer sun and smell of roses in the Summer; the crunch of crisp brown leaves under your boots as you take an Autumn walk, or tiny snowdrops peaking out from the frosty grass on a crisp Winter‘s day?

Isn’t nature wonderful? I think so, so I wanted to craft pieces which encapsulated the wonder of our countryside for you to enjoy. All of my work is handmade and each piece is unique, as unique as you are. In the world we live in now we often don’t allow ourselves the time to slow down, to smell the flowers, to feel the grass beneath our feet or to stand still and just enjoy the view. So my main goal is to make YOU feel good, and to feel a little step closer to nature.
