Many thanks to The Gathering Cafe Bungendore for their patronage š§”
Creating for good. Locally sourced. Meticulously crafted. Environmentally aware. Hi, my name's Denise, and I've been a hobby florist for about 6 years now.

I do arrangements and installations big and small, as well as event styling, bespoke wreaths and wearables. Locally sourced flowers, everlasting, foam free, and environmentally friendly arrangements are my jam. I also regularly make everlasting peices with all profits going to Women's Shelters.

Fresh Gatheringsāļø
New floral arrangements are in at The Gathering Cafe Bungendore made with locally foraged materials and pure Australiana vibes. Love the look, love the coffee even more
Down they comeā¦
Many thanks to Doubleshot Deakin for their patronage and support of my charity wreath project. Itās a joy to lend my craft to local business for some floral magic
If ever there was a time for flower crowns š¾
Happy New Year to my followers and friends new and old. This year, we raised over $600 for Karinya House through this floral project.
2024 will have me busier than ever, but Iāll still make time for orders of wreaths and wearables.
Thank you all for your patronage, kind heartedness, and love of flowers
ā¦And to all a good night!
Every now and then I get a request for an everlasting Christmas wreath and my heart skips a beat (mainly because I donāt need to forage and pick beetles off pine for an hour). This opulent beauty will stay merry and bright for years to come, and boy howdy is she pretty!
As always, all profits go to Karinya House
Letās take a break from wreaths for my latest floral installation: a tree unlike any other in the bushš
There were many challenges setting this up for a photoshoot in the middle of nowhere (mainly wind), but in the end stubbornness prevailed! Iām obsessed with this woodland chic aesthetic of all things real: flowers, berries, mistletoe, pinecones and blood oranges. I hope the photographer got a million amazing pictures, because I am never doing this again š„²
Just a big lilā something for the brick walls of Urban Pantry this Christmas
Made by me, with all profits going to Karinya House
Itās the little wingsšļø
Two turtle dove swags and a hearty hoop are on full display at
Iām obsessed with how well they complement this wonderfully restored historic building, and hope yāall agree

Three years ago today I started this crazy project. Thank you all for your support, and a special thank you to my glue gun for not giving up on me ā¤ļøšā¤ļø
āI know this massive jungle wreath looks like āa lotā, but when you see it on the wall it was designed for itāll all harmonise perfectly.ā
-me, hyping myself up the morning of delivery
All is calmā¦
Bells, bows, and tinsel are nice, but letās take a moment to enjoy the beauty and texture of this green on gumnuts number with cinnamon and babyās breath sprinkled throughout.
Shoutout to The Gathering Cafe Bungendore where this piece will be on display, alongside two sister swags

Christmas Jungle šŗ
If you ever wondered what 14 hours of bending nature to oneās will looks like, here she be! At 8 kilos and over a metre in diameter, this lush and laden beauty is absolutely everything.
Special thanks to West Row Botanica Boutique Florist for the gumnuts and native flowers
This bespoke beauty will be on display for all to enjoy at Doubleshot Deakin
As always, all profits to Karinya House
Joy to the world, starting with Little Sutton Bakehouse the first on my Christmas list to receive wreaths this year.
May these beauties make your days merry and bright anytime you stop by for a bite
Sisters for Sutton š

A rose by any other nameā¦
Edelweiss
He grew up in Slovenia near the Austrian border. They met in Canada at a dance for expats, and the rest was history. This piece is a tribute to young love and eternal promises
Haartzeerš·
Her favourite colours woven together with ribbons punctuating the passing of time. As an expat myself, I understand how it feels to have a heart live in multiple places at once
Moonstruck
This commission is a delicate dance of dried funerary flowers and tightly packed fresh gypsophila, which will shrink to have its size as it dries. Iām in love with how it turned out
One hour challenge
Sometimes I carefully plan a piece, sometimes I grab whatever and give myself an hour. Working quickly with wild abandon is very refreshing. Curious to see how this looks after the berries dry
Flower Mountainš·
I had so much fun making this vintage style floral compote, incorporating locally foraged greenery and berries with some red hot baby tulips. This arrangement looks like it was stolen from a Dutch still life painting and Iām totally into it
Really tho, get her flowers šø
Move over Y2K! My fashion predictions are bell sleeves, pointed toe boots, peasant dresses, flowers in hair and slouchy bags filled with foraged herbs and mushrooms. Basicallyā¦I predict witches.
Let there be night (markets)
Swing on by the Easter Markets, hosted by Canberra Small Business Market and say hello wonāt you?
Sea(son) Change
Taking a break from the bright Easter colours to tie off this sage and dusty beauty. I adore how this asymmetric but balanced piece turned out
For sale, and as always, all profits to Karinya House
Just Lavender š
How many flowers do you reckon are in this wreath? Honestly, itās probably more than thatā¦
Even after months of drying, the blossoms are still so fragrant. Might add a ribbon, but what colour?
To market to market! At Bungendore showing off some happy hoops. Iāve got several bespoke pieces on display. If you love them, let me know š„°

Red hot poker faceā¦ļø
The kniphofia are everywhere at my place and I just couldnāt resist making them into a weird and wonderful wearable for my dearest bff John
