Gosh it felt good to get that first row planted!

Let’s go summer!! 🌸🌞

As always, thanks very much to my flower fairy team and my lovely husband Stephen who spends his days off from his full time job helping us.

Today we planted Mangles Everlastings (seen at the end) and Delphiniums.

On International Women’s Day I’m feeling especially grateful for our Flower Fairies who come here each week and are such a part of the fabric of The Flowersmith Studio.

If you look closely as the camera moves through the field, you can just make them out dotted quietly through the flowers, tending and gathering. In many ways they really are fairies in the truest sense, working close to the earth, often unseen, quietly helping bring the field to life.🧚🧚‍♀️💕🌸

Their love of the flowers, the process and the creating brings such energy here. Their steadiness and care make this work possible.

I’m also thinking of all the women who come to workshops, who choose flowers as gifts, who bring them into their homes, and who love them as much as I do. Often the men in their lives are the ones buying the flowers or gifting the workshops, but it’s the women who inspire those gestures.

Flowers become a conduit for so many messages — love, gratitude, care and celebration — but it’s the women around us here who make that exchange of warmth and energy possible.

And of course I’m grateful for my husband Stephen too, whose quiet support helps make all of this possible. 🌸

Workshop Series | 06
Seasonal Installation Studio
Designing with Mood, Place & Story
Tuesday, September 8th | 10:00–4:30

This is a full-day, small-group studio intensive centred on one idea:

How flowers can transform a space.

Working with an abundance of specialty, seasonal material grown here at The Flowersmith Studio, we’ll create a large-scale installation designed to respond to its surroundings — shaped by mood, movement and story.

This is about stepping beyond “arranging”
and thinking instead about atmosphere.

About scale.
Placement.
Feeling.

Using foam-free methods and garden-led material at its most expressive stage, we’ll explore how colour, texture and proportion shift the energy of a space — and how creative decisions are translated into practical, buildable structure.

This studio is best suited to those who already have some experience designing or working with flowers and are ready to explore installation work in a deeper, more creative way.

You don’t need to be working professionally — but a level of confidence with flowers will allow you to fully engage with the process.

Intentionally limited to no more than four participants.

Booking is now open via the link in bio.
