Helena Rose Specialising in Biodegradable Confetti, fresh and dry flowers, Creative workshops & Bespoke Headwear

Hi, I’m Helena Rose, a bespoke designer based in the beautiful Redlands, QLD. I specialise in minimal waste floral design, handcrafted headwear, and creative workshops all created with love, intention, and a deep respect for sustainability and individuality. As a minimal waste designer, I’m always exploring new ways to repurpose flowers and materials, transforming what might have been discarded in

to something beautiful, meaningful, and lasting. My work includes a growing range of biodegradable confetti, fresh and dried floral arrangements, and one-of-a-kind headwear, each piece designed slowly and thoughtfully, with minimal waste in mind. I also love bringing creativity to others through my mobile workshops, where I travel to homes, workplaces, and schools to share my process. Every workshop is disability-inclusive, inspired by my incredible older sister Rose, who the brand is named after. In her honour, I strive to make every class welcoming, accessible, and empowering for all. Crafted with Care, Inspired by Experience

With a background in Fashion Design, I’ve always been drawn to clean lines, bold colour, and modern femininity with a touch of nostalgic charm. My creative journey has taken me across 20+ countries as a stylist, and I’ve been lucky enough to have my work featured in Jute Magazine and Dreamingless Magazine. I trained under French Milliner Estelle Ramousee and Couture Milliner Maor Zabar in Israel, learning the art of craftsmanship that now shapes every floral design and headpiece I create. After graduating in Applied Fashion Design in 2010, I moved from Sydney to Brisbane to explore a more sustainable and personal creative path. Between 2021 and 2025, I ran several retail studios before transitioning into a by-commission practice, focusing on custom designs and mobile workshops that celebrate creativity, connection, and conscious design. Every piece I create tells a story of care, creativity and community. Thank you for being here and supporting a journey built on love, sustainability, and inclusivity.

A little handmade detail for a bespoke birthday arrangement 🦋

This arrangement was created for a husband wanting to make his wife’s birthday extra special. He wanted something beautiful that would last, so we chose dried flowers. When he told me she loves black and white butterflies, I knew I wanted to make that detail part of her arrangement so I was on a mission!

He also mentioned that their home had some beautiful gold accents, so I asked him to send me a few photos of the house. I wanted to make sure the arrangement didn’t just reflect her but also felt at home in their space.

So I painted the vase white, then added touches of gold leaf to create a slightly worn, vintage finish that tied in with the existing décor

Finding the right butterflies proved surprisingly difficult with such a short timeframe… so I decided to make my own ! 🦋

And honestly, I absolutely loved making these. The process was so satisfying!!

I started with butterfly stickers, coloured them black and transferred them onto white satin. Once peeled away, the cut-out sections revealed the white satin underneath, creating the black-and-white pattern.

I then added a coat of UV nail polish and cured them just enough to give them a little structure while still keeping that soft, delicate movement. A tiny hole, some wire, and they were ready to become part of the arrangement.

I think I may have accidentally created a new favourite embellishment! 🦋

I’m seriously considering adding these handmade butterflies to my collection of embellishments available when ordering a bespoke piece. I love the idea of creating little details specifically around the person the flowers are made for, from handmade elements to customising the vase to suit their home.

Because sometimes, it’s those tiny handmade touches that make an arrangement truly personal.
