Funnily enough, I never thought floristry would be something I would turn to but when my son was born I knew I didn’t want to go back to my old working life within an office environment. At this point, we had moved into a house with quite a large garden and I seemed to spend most of my days gardening and growing flowers to dry. I would collect grasses, twigs and other materials on walks which turned into simple effective floral arrangements and so my passion for floristry developed!

My parents were market gardeners during the ’50s in Devon and my brother, sisters, cousins, aunties and uncles spent their days picking, sorting and packing flowers. My Father would take them to the local station a couple of times a week with supplies. My Family support was incredible and I started attending local fairs and holding open days from home which were just amazing.

After the birth of my second son, I attended a fresh floristry course in Berkshire which gave me the confidence to progress with my business and move into weddings and the rest is history…

Working with flowers for 30 years, my passion for flowers is never-ending and I am always looking at new trends and products to enhance and reflect what I do.  My flowers are sourced via Dutch markets and now also supplying  British flowers which have become extremely fashionable, the quality and varieties are amazing and it’s great to support our local growers.  My clients vary from weddings, events, hire of silk floral displays, home styling and Christmas where we design and install Christmas Decorations.

I pride myself on providing my clients with excellent customer service whilst paying attention to detail. Every client is important however large or small – I’m very fortunate to spend my time working with incredible materials and no two days are the same. 

I am also very excited to be offering ‘The Flower Box Collection’, flowers by post across the UK, all of my packaging is eco-friendly and sustainably sourced.
