Helebore, waxflower, hyacinth

scented loveliness...

I couldn't resist putting something together with such beautiful flowers available today. The scents are amazing and this is one of the designs that will be available for mothers day, 10th March. Here I have used hyacinth, roses, hellebore, pussy willow, narcissus and thistle. The colours are soft and so delicate.

First blog for 2013

Well, I thought I would start this year's blog with a posting of a lovely wedding we worked on last September for Amy and David in Speldhurst. Their ceremony was held at St Mary's Church Speldhurst, and then a reception back at the family home also in the village. They were a wonderful family to work for and I thought I would share a few pictures of their special day with you all.

Sunday opening

What a gorgeous morning here in Groombridge. We have some adorable wreaths for sale in the shop today. Fresh and faux with lots of wintry loveliness...

today's wreath...

the brief was muted tones, natural with a hint of silver, my favourite so far...

gorgeous wreaths, for a truly gorgeous hotel...

The door wreaths are up, and looking splendid. The Christmas trees are filling up reception, lit and beautifully decorated, and it looks amazing as you enter the cozy reception area.

Our hand made wreaths are finished with Nobilis pine, faux berry, oranges, cinnamon and of course some locally sourced pheasant feathers to finish it off.

something for the Christmas table...

We have gone traditional this year, lots of seasonal berry, velvet red roses, and gorgeous seasonal foliages. Our table centrepeices are now in the shop for those wishing to order and collect a day or two before Christmas. All shapes and sizes and the colour of your choice - what could be simpler...
