Heading into Autumn and Winter

There are so many beautiful dried wreaths at the moment, so thought I would try making one for myself.  Knowing it will last until replacement with a Christmas version is lovely.  You can view the above on the door of our local butcher.  I am now inspired to make some more.  

Sustainable floristry is being mentioned time and again.  I am seriously working on this now.  Trying not to use oasis green foam - even the biodegradable variety can take up to three years or more to break down and then there is, in some cases, the plastic tray they are attached to.  I will be trying to do my bit.

I have always tried to use glass vases for weddings and can even remember speaking with a lovely couple about
using plants - namely herbs - for their centre pieces.  Have to say they looked stunning and were given to guests as
presents at the end of the day.  

In that respect I have accumulated a variety of lovely vases, from plain chunky round vases to those lovely delicate sweetie vases and of course the very simple but effective jam jars, in all shapes and sizes.  Finally some rather gorgeous white vases that have a wonderful texture to them.  Have to be seen.

It is lovely to be back working with flowers and I still gain inspiration from so many wonderful florists. Have a happy Halloween .
