No trending audio or attention span-proof snappy editing. Just the October bouquet of my dreams, the pitter patter of raindrops, birds singing and leaves falling 🍂

With locally grown slow flowers from , & and a few blooms from .

And a stunning moss colored ribbon from .and.flowers 👌🏻

Made as a demo bouquet during a 1:1 class - check my site for more info & available dates! 🌸

Happy October 🕯️

This still life design was created by my 1:1 student , during her 2 day class with me last year. You might remember the purple Winter installation I made with her 👌🏻

If you want to learn how to create whimsical, foam free designs.. I have a few spots left this Autumn! I also listed a couple of dates in January if you want to create with the beauty Winter has to offer 🤍 (February bookings welcome too)

Check my available dates via the 1:1 class link in my bio and inquire sooner than later ☺️

Happy Autumn flower friends! (it’s officially my birthday month, yaay!)

Come meet me & my work in person! 🍂

It’s almost time for my favourite weekend: the Ambachtelijke Plantenmarkt! Hosted by De Wiersse & Gardeners' World NL, this plant fair is a TREAT for any gardener/plant lover 💚

Think: loads of growers, makers and artisanal brands, delicious food, homemade c***r, gorgeous gardens, the kindest, most passionate people ánd me!

Not that I’m not kind and passionate 😆

I’m super thrilled to announce I am creating something for the fair again! For the third time. I’m even on the official map now 🌸

Last year I made the massive arch you see above.

I can give a spoiler: I will create another arch, full of seasonal flowers & foliage/berries from the estate grounds. And obviously.. all foam free 👏🏻

But I will create a different - more Anne - design this time.

I might have underestimated how much time it will take me, but that’s a future me problem haha! For now, I am really excited about it! 🤩  Stefan will be helping me to install it again (he did well last year, so he can come back ;)) and we are both walking around the fair all weekend.

Come find us and say hi! 👋🏻

And tag me in any photos of the arch to really make my day 🥰

FINAL tickets are available through dewiersse.com/plantenmarkt (or find the link in their bio)

Amazing photos by the fab Liesbeth Disbergen | Fotograaf 👌🏻

PS: I’ll also create the corsages for my friends at Gardeners' World NL again, look out for the editors to see those little treasures! 🌿

Honestly, this tablescape was born out of pure despair.

The heatwaves were getting the better of me and my garden. Flowers melting, leaves shrivelled, the soil turned to dust. I couldn’t handle the pressure of keeping flowers alive, so I didn’t create anything at all.

But that’s not the way to go.

Not just because I have an online school that needs new videos every now & then (lol), but because we can’t give into despair and anxiety.

We need to turn it into action.

And as florists, we can help to make a change 👏🏻

We could blast the AC, use tons of water and energy to make sweet peas or dahlias work during high Summer 🥀

Or we could show our clients that there are other ways.

Ways that are more sustainable, less stressful and more original. Using local flowers, climate-proof ingredients and pulling inspiration from the natural world.

Like this grassy tablescape with Queen Anne’s Lace & pennycress. Crispy and gold, yet light and breezy. Like a much needed evening breeze through a Summer meadow 🌾

And I have to say, I loved creating this. This and the grassy bouquet I posted a while ago.

Not just because I get to inspire you with it - hopefully. But also because this is where I started.. dried bits and wildflowers.

Hopefully you can feel that joy shine through when you watch the video (if you decide to join my online school :))

SHARE the inspo with your flower friends or SAVE it for when the next heatwave arrives! 🔥

You asked for it! 👏🏻

I gathered MORE content tips for you! But this, flower farmer/grower focused.

Because next to weeding, watering, harvesting, sowing, propagating and all other things that need to be done.. who has time to come up with content inspo?

Feel free to steal these and make them your own!

I can’t wait to see all your seasonal flower tips, dahlia digging timelapses & muddy selfies 🧟‍♀️

Found this post helpful?

SHARE it to inspire your fellow growers 👌🏻🌿

What’s your favourite colour palette? 👇🏻

This post was made possible by another heatwave, lol. Because once it got too hot to edit the new video for my online school, I fled to my cool(ish) studio.

The plan was to create lots of content to feed the algo beast..

But a fried brain can only do so much 🥵

So I didn’t make bouquets.
No arrangements either.
No colourful tablescapes.

My creativity just wouldn’t have it today 🧟‍♀️

But I didn’t want this afternoon to go to waste (also.. I REALLY didn’t want to go upstairs or outside because of the heat lol).

So I stayed in my studio full of flowers. And I literally went through my buckets to look for some fun colour combos.

Some inspiration for my future self - and you! There is SO much more than soft pastels & peach flowers 🎨

Now, tell me.. what’s your fave combination of these 10?

Ammi right?! 😏 (pun intended)

Proudly walked home with some golden treasures for a new video, while he held his distance and looked the other way 😆

In my hands: thlaspi, cornflower & achillea. Not pictured: the ginormous bunch of wild mustard seedpods I snatched 5 min later.

Heatwave inspired tablescape class coming to my membership soon! Get on the waitlist 👏🏻🌾

Florists: this one’s for you!

You know when you see a post and you’re like: “How did they know I needed this?!” 👀   Well.. this is one of those posts.

Something (okay, my own personal frustration about this app, lol) told me you needed some inspiration for your social media content.

So I brainstormed and put together this list for you 🤓

If you’re struggling to come up with topics to talk about here, this is gonna help you BIG TIME.

Use these topics as your starting point and inject some much needed new energy into your account.

Oh and FIY: it’s tooooootally okay to repeat topics throughout the year. Repetition = recognition 👏🏻

SAVE THIS POST for the next time you’re dead tired and about to upload a flower photo with the caption ‘flowers are pretty I guess’. You can add more value to your audience than that!

Also.. the photos don’t always have to match the caption. There, just saved you another headache 👍🏻

What do you think?

Should I create a part 2.. for flower growers? 😏🌿🪱

Honestly, it still hasn’t sunk in. But now that I have photos, the fever dream is feeling more real 🥹

Our wonderful Floral Artistry Retreat was one for the books. A fairytale, to be exact.

With our beautiful attendees as main characters. Don’t they look like actual flower fairies in these photos?! 😍

It really was as magical as it all looks.

In my opinion, even more magical ✨

Not because Kim didn’t capture our week perfectly, but because I was there to experience it in real life! Lol, small detail 😆

There was just so much LOVE in the air, I’ve been floating on it for weeks now. We supported each other, uplifted each other, held each other in every way.

Yes, it was hard work.
Yes, I made 19-20h days.
Yes, my voice gave up at the end of the week.

But oh YES, it was worth every single second.

From the hands-on classes, branding sessions, photography class, 1:1 mentoring to the delicious food, my talented guest educators, the foam free group installation and ALL THE LOCAL SLOW FLOWERS.. it was heaven 🙌🏻

We would do it all again in a heartbeat.

And guess what?!

We are!!! 🥳🥳🥳

Happy Summer Solstice 🌼🌞🌾

Here are some Solstice moments I shot on film over the years. The flower crowns are made on the longest day, a little personal tradition I might skip this year. We just got home from a family visit and it’s too hot to go pick flowers or grasses 😅

I will share a post in my stories that talks about all kinds of traditions throughout Europe. Bonfires, flower crowns & wreaths, dances, lake swims, fern quests and general unhinged behavior (lol). It’s an inspiring post for sure!

Enjoy the shift of the seasons, spend time outside, stay cool and to my SH friends; happy Winter solstice! 🌀🦋💫
