As the week starts and if you, like me had a little time with family over the Easter school holibobs; you may share that back to school feeling!

I’m shaking out my feathers and hoping the sun starts to shine as I look forward to Spring. Honestly, where are you?

I absolutely adored this dried floral project at the simply stunning where I had the chance to create alongside the very talented

I just love the transformation to this intimate space. I’d love to pop back and check up on this design. So many people are surprised to hear just how long a dried installation will last with just a little care & attention.

If you need a floral cloud or dried flower design to make your business stand out then please get in touch.

I love seeing both versions of shots and I love it that photographers know just which photos will suit black & white.

Choosing your photographer is so key to capturing your day. Years & months of planning all encapsulated in one day. Choose wisely! I absolutely loved seeing these images by the very talented

She revealed the day in such a wonderful way.. so many stunning images that captured the day perfectly.

Swipe to see both versions. Which would you choose?

So I am so delighted to discover them tucked away on dropbox. This day, this couple, honestly it and they were just the best. Zoe & Chris were THE most amazing people to plan alongside. Always encouraging, full of creativity, kindness and it was an absolute dream & a privilege to share their stunning day at the breathtaking

T o d a y I a m r e a c h i n g o u t..

to all those fabulous women out there on this day

Recently I lost my wonderful mother & life has been so different since.. I am slowly emerging from a hibernation of sorts. I have engaged less with social media and set new boundaries on my time.

I am encouraged by all the amazing people in my life; my family, my friends. And the flowers have continued to provide comfort and joy as ever.

At times my soul has been swirling in an empty void but like the earth gradually warming and the spring bulbs bursting forth I know life is still there with all its beauty. I have appreciated so many things with a greater depth. Recognised moments to treasure & cling to & found solace in nature. A walk, a view, a particularly stunning sunrise or sunset.

Strangely I feel so happy to write messages and deliver flowers to mothers this weekend. It’s bringing joy in a way I can’t articulate. And I’m looking forward to spending time with my own little family & appreciating them in a new way.

We all have special women in our lives. Either those we remember or those we encounter in our life & work. Here’s a shout out to hold them in your mind and hearts today.. 💫💫

Dangers of daffodils 🌼 for dogs… 🐕

Please share!

🌻 🐶 While daffodils can be beautiful and bring a burst of colour to your garden, they can be toxic to dogs if ingested. The most dangerous parts of daffodils are the bulbs, which contain lycorine and other alkaloids that can cause gastrointestinal irritation.

The symptoms of daffodil poisoning in dogs include:
⚠️ Nausea, retching and excess salivation.
⚠️ Vomiting.
⚠️ Drooling or slobbering.
⚠️ Diarrhoea.
⚠️ Rapid breathing.
⚠️ Faster than normal heart rate.
⚠️ Seizures.

As the daffodils start to make a welcomed appearance, if your pet has ingested any part of a daffodil, please get in contact with us immediately.

Check out my stories!! I have some beautiful British spruce available TODAY!

If you have(like me!) finally carved the time for some final touches & fancy adding stunning foliage to your kitchen table, fireplace, staircase or doorways..

Then DM me to collect yours!

Excellent quality & prices from only £5!

I’m so thrilled to be sitting down with my daughter to create our own foliage garland, eat mince pies, listen to carols, and finally make that new raspberry & white chocolate trifle! ( so excited about this recipe given to me by my friend who is a chef) ..

What are you up to today? Whatever you do, remember to treasure those precious moments with your family and enjoy creating.

I love the contrast of the rich, deep tones with the white here. It definitely creates a Christmas mood.

Personally it’s been a tough time lately. Thank you for all your love and kind messages of support. It means so much.

But, as ever being out in nature & working with flowers never fails to raise a smile or cheer my day.

Recently I had the privilege of creating sympathy flowers for my own mother’s funeral. As sad as the day was I loved creating the flowers & it was a comfort to spend time with family & old friends. I bought an array of scented roses from a British supplier who has a fair trade flower farm in Kenya. The roses were just stunning and the scent was divine; a heady mix of English summer in November. I’ve popped a couple of candid photos on my stories.

I’ve also been busy creating bespoke Christmas designs & for other private clients. All my garlands are made lovingly by hand and hours of work goes into creating them. I do love the scents of pine, conifer and eucalyptus filling the room as we work. I’ve even indulged in Christmas music & the odd mince pie..

I have now relocated and moved out of .lanestudiostore ( I plan to extend the products available on the website in the New Year; eyes peeled for a fresh launch!) and the fabulous are happily installed there. I’m loving see them make it their own. 💞

I have a temporary home at the former Unit 12 base in Tixall and I’m all set to move to my new home in January.

I also recently enjoyed creating flowers with a Royal connection. ( I will share more of that later!) Hoping all your festive plans are going well; you might still be able to catch a last remaining place or two in my luxury wreath course next Tuesday. I can’t wait to create beautiful wreaths and enjoy a natter & a festive tipple with you all! Head to the website to book.

Everyone. What a week! It really does finally feel like winter is approaching. Time to dig out those long winter boots, warm coats & enjoy a blustery walk.

Well, today we officially exchanged on the studio sale so the moving out/ across process begins in earnest!

The next house move is still in motion ( I’m crossing everything 🤞🏻🙏🏻 & squeezing my eyes shut).

In the meantime I’m planning a few winter breaks (anyone else?) and this gorgeous & magical home is high on my wish list! If you’d like to book this whimsical beauty for a cosy weekend then head to .. to book.

I loved working with the talented to create a dried installation and adding floral designs around the inspiring interiors.

Don’t you just love these deep jewel tones?

Exciting news! 📣 change is on the horizon…

It has taken me a while to write this post. The procrastination hasn’t been intentional in the slightest; it’s just been a very busy time.

I have long held a desire to relocate to a new home with a workshop in situ and space to start a small cutting garden. At last it appears this is happening! I have found another beautiful cottage in the same village. (this time an old brewery: so far I’ve had an old butchers shop & a former pub! Is there a theme here?)

So, I will be moving out of my beautiful studio which has been a wonderful base for the past 2 years. I’ve loved renovating it to the space it is now & I’ve loved throwing open the doors to everyone who has workshopped, hired, shopped or visited my studio. It’s been my haven. ✨

So, whilst I move and renovate a new space ( I will be taking my walk in cooler with me!) I have a temporary flower studio home which I’ll announce very soon.

In the meantime I will be having a fabulous fling of a studio sale! More details coming soon!

Lengthen night and shorten day;
Every leaf speaks bliss to me
Fluttering from the autumn tree.
