Repurposing Funeral Arrangements .
A service I’m going to start offering which I’ve done a few times but never publicised is deconstructing the coffin spray and making into jar arrangements to be given to family afterwards.
I first did this for a family member and gave them to family for them to remember and take home and a posy arrangement taken to a family grave.
There was no waste and the flowers repurposed were warmly received.
If this is something you would like to do when ordering a coffin spray we can discuss your preferences.
I only do this with coffin sprays that I make and there will be a minimal charge for this service.

I had a request for a bouquet of English flowers for a lady who loved her garden but had to move into a care home.
However we did better than that we were able to create this bouquet with locally grown flowers grown in Co. Durham
