Inspiration....


Recently I had to write a short blurb about myself for work & I've been trying to put pen to paper about what I find inspiring... There's sooo much it's always pretty tricky to confine yourself to just a few things but here's what I'm currently enjoying...

I've fallen in love with these beautiful images by The Blue Carrot Florist. The colour combinations are just breath taking & I only hope I create something as beautiful as these one day! For further information on her work please check out the website here.





I'm a big big fan of Rob Ryan's intricate paper cuts - they're incredibly beautiful & romantic. Here's a couple of my favourites...
This next one I have in red on my wall at home & spend much time gazing at! 


I just love Liberty prints - they have such a playfullness to them!




I was talking with a friend the other day about how songs can inspire ideas, moods & feelings & it started me thinking about what songs inspired my floristry & this instantly came to mind! It's long been one of my favourites & although the words aren't remotely abut flowers it just makes me think of the outdoors, warmth & rustic beauty...

A sneak peek...

Yesterday was spent doing a very exciting photoshoot involving a beautiful gypsy caravan! - Here's a very sneak preview...


I was left with quite an abundance of flowers from the shoot so I have taken over the lovely shop window of Make, Do & Mend with a bit of floral goodness! - just in time for the sunshine!
