🌸A lovely day at Rutland Flower Show! 🌸

Spent today wandering around the flower show, taking in all the beautiful garden designs, stunning flowers and fantastic stalls. So much inspiration everywhere you looked! 🌿🌺

Of course, I couldn’t resist bringing a few goodies home with me too… 🌱🛍️💐

Such a lovely day for anyone who loves flowers, gardens and all things floral.

✨ Enchanted summer arrangements ✨

I had so much fun creating these designs, combining beautiful seasonal flowers with twisting branches, delicate butterflies and plenty of colour. 🌸🦋

Featuring dahlias, gladioli, rudbeckia, alstroemeria and lush foliage, each arrangement was designed to capture the magic and beauty of summer.

A lovely day spent at Belvoir Castle’s Flower & Garden Show. 🌸🌿 It was amazing to wander around the gardens, take in all the beautiful flowers and see so many incredibly talented displays. Everywhere you looked there was something different to admire and plenty of inspiration to take home. Already looking forward to next year’s show! ☀️💐

A lovely Bloom Club session creating meadow boxes and flower baskets 🌸🌿

I absolutely loved putting these together using a mix of seasonal blooms, soft pastel tones and vibrant pops of colour. From delicate pinks and purples to cheerful golden gerberas and sunflowers , every arrangement has its own little personality ✨

There’s something so satisfying about creating natural, meadow-inspired designs and watching all the textures and colours come together beautifully 💐

Which one would you choose — the basket or the meadow box? 🌼💕

Another hanging basket made for our garden and I’m honestly obsessed with all the soft purples, pinks and little pops of yellow 💜🌼

Love seeing everything come together and can’t wait for it all to grow out over summer ☀️
…also treated myself to another dahlia because I clearly have no self control when it comes to flowers 😂🌺

Also a little update on the hanging basket I made recently 🌸✨

Today’s little project 🌸✨
Made up this gorgeous hanging basket with a mix of bright blooms and soft pastel tones ready to bring some colour into the garden 🌿💐

Couldn’t resist treating myself while plant shopping either… another dahlia somehow came home with me 👀😂🌺

Honestly loving spending time creating these little floral arrangements lately 🤍

🌸✨ Bloom Club today with Wild Jasmine ✨🌸

Spent today making hanging baskets for our garden and honestly loved every minute of it 🪴💗
So many pretty colours, fresh flowers and getting creative with some lovely people🌿

Nothing better than seeing everything come together and imagining how beautiful they’ll look once they’re all blooming 🌸✨

So grateful for today’s order 🤍

A lovely customer asked for two pieces, and it was such a joy to create these. From the soft whites and blush pinks to the deeper, richer tones, every stem was chosen to complement each other beautifully and bring a fresh, elegant feel.

Thank you so much for trusting me with your flowers – it truly means the world and I appreciate every single order 🌸✨

Spent the day at a Grow Your Own Cut Flowers workshop with Wild Jasmine florist and flower school 🌱🌸

We planted a mix of beautiful flowers including amaranthus, larkspur, gyp and cosmos and learnt more about growing my own flowers and to start my own little flower patch . Such a lovely hands-on day getting messy with soil, seeds and seedlings in the sunshine ☀️

Can’t wait to watch everything start to grow over the next few months 🤍✨
