Some new wreaths I’m working on for my upcoming market in Kilkenny (more details to come). Ive used white Limonium Tatarica otherwise known as Sea Lavender, it’s very popular in all floristry, when dried it has a distinctive spiky yet delicate texture and a faint seaside scent making it one of my favourites 🌊 💦
