Good morning! For I would like to share the love with Lucy from .

She is absolutely gorgeous, inside and out, and has some stellar products available in her store. She has been so supportive of me since I started out, sharing all the tricks of the trade and pointing me in the right direction.

She's got such an awesome and admirable work ethic, and it has been amazing to watch her grow her small business over the last few years. She's always on the lookout for amazing items for her customers and you can really tell, her bows are fab!

has a sale on at the moment , so be sure to go have a look in her instagram and pick up something cute for your kids 😊❤🥰

PS sorry this is a day late. I was super affected by the glitch!! Xx

These garden roses have been great fun to make today.... I'm only a teeny tiny bit behind schedule, I blame the lovely weather... I'm sure I will catch up! X @ Cumbria

Instead of making any flowers today, I have spent the day enjoying the sun, indulging in wine and cheese... feeling totally decadent! So, for your Saturday evening viewing enjoyment, here is something I prepared a little earlier 🥰⚘🌸 hope you enjoy! Xx @ Cumbria

On this lovely sunny day, we are 'looking inside' for today's post 😊

Heart origami is available to purchase from Paper Petals as heart table scatter and all customers also receive a little heart with their order as a thank you to them. Recently I was asked by a customer to put a little message in inside the heart, for their loved one to find. So sweet and romantic!

Then, one of my friends came up with the fab idea of creating a little jar of hearts, filled with loving hidden messages, so that these could be opened at any time, when you need a little pick me up (I might call it the 'snaps cup' for any of you Legally Blonde fans).

What do you guys think? What other ideas do you have for using these hearts? Xx

Morning everyone! We are celebrating here... so, what is the best part of my day? Well, where do I start!? It's so lovely to get a new order ping in, or it is a great feeling when you're starting the day out with a nice cup of coffee thinking about where to start... but my absolutely favourite part of my day is when I finish a flower, and then when I finish an entire bouquet. This hydrangea took a good few hours for me, but I love the finished result. Hope you guys love it too ### @ Cumbria

Good morning everyone. It's the next instalment of and it is all about something 'unique, special, quirky'.

So, I've seen a few book and map flowers around, but I was so pleased to be asked to create this musical flower - with sheet music from Lady Gaga's Shallow from the movie A Star is Born. This is going to be part of a dozen rose bouquet, and holds so much meaning for the couple; I adore it and I can't wait to finish it. I hope you guys like it too. @ Cumbria

It's the end of the week and day 5 of - today is all about LOVE and PASSION. On this subject I could wax lyrical about everything Paper Petals... and I did consider it... but instead I wanted to share with you some of the love that I get to see every day, in the form of my customers' message tags. Today's picture is one of this week's orders - The customer requested a tag with 'My life. My Universe. My everything' attached to book pages from the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. It is mega sweet and I'm honoured to write the message on their behalf.

There's so much beauty in the little messages our customers send out into the world every day. What's the nicest message you've ever sent with one of your orders?

Hello lovelies - it's day 4 of and I've got a nice behind the scenes snapshot for today's 'Your Lovely Order' theme. I've been painting hydrangea petals, as you can see, and making headway on a pink bouquet of gerbera, garden roses, kusudama and hydrangeas. It's so much fun bringing it all together, I wish I could package the feeling of satisfaction I get when all the fowers are tied up and about to shipped off to my wonderful customers. I'm sure you guys must get the same feeling? @ Cumbria
