I haven’t used floral foam in over 5 years.

Back when I trained as a florist in tafe (over 10 years ago now!) we were taught to use floral foam for all base medium designs - anything within a box or container, arbour designs, ceiling installations, casket sprays, centrepieces, you name it and it was probably created into floral foam. The stores I worked for would go through boxes upon boxes of the stuff and If you’d asked me back then I couldn’t imagine how to design without it.

Yet here we are, all this time later, and I honestly DO NOT miss it. Learning to design without floral foam was a huge learning curve (there wasn’t any training available and ā€œeco floristsā€ to learn from were few and far between) but I stuck with my conviction and it’s made me such a better designer. There’s no single product that can replace floral foam - each design requires its own unique solution and mechanics. Designing sustainably means designing with great thought and intention in everything you create.

I ditched floral foam in 2019 for my health and the environment but in doing so I discovered a new found love of designing and a whole new skill set.

I’m back in the office again this week after a much needed break over the Christmas holidays. 🄰 Feeling refreshed and ready to go for the year ahead!

Please bear with me as I work through all our new enquiries. There’s always an influx over the new years break and this year is no exception. I’m excited to chat to all of you and help plan and design your dream wedding florals and will be in touch by the end of the week if I haven’t responded to you already.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years! I have a good feeling about this one 🄰

Hello to all my lovely followers! It’s been a little while since I properly introduced myself so here I am! This picture was taken a few years back after a wedding set up accompanied by my two big girls, and we now have a cheerful little boy added to the mix. I’m a wife, mother, Christian, florist, and owner of this business!

If you’re familiar with the ā€œ16 personality typesā€ I’m a INFJ; I love people, am deep thinking and feeling, and love a good cause to support! I’m passionate about reducing our footprint on the planet in both personal and business life; I made the commitment to make Ivy Trails floral foam free back in 2019 and haven’t looked back. I love the challenge of coming up with the perfect mechanics for every design and am continually growing and learning as an eco florist. Since becoming a mother I have also become deeply passionate about the birthing world and our beautiful private/homebirth midwives in the Hawkesbury and Blue Mountains. I hope one day to join them but that’s a future dream right now.

I love gardening, baking, cooking, and preserving and would love to have my own expansive gardens/micro farm one day. With a flock of chickens of course! And with it I would love to have my own little library filled with favourite books collected over a lifetime.

Professionally I hold both certificates 3 and 4 in floristry, and started my journey as a florist 12 years ago. This business is my passion project that both brings me immense joy and helps support our little family.

Just for fun, see if you can guess how many tattoos I have;

A) Two
B) Four
C) Six
