There’s something truly magical about decorating your home for Christmas with pieces that feel natural, handmade, and full of seasonal charm. This year, my Eucalyptus, Citrus & Gypsophila Collection brings together three of my favourite Christmas elements, cool winter greenery, bright citrus tones, and delicate white blooms, to create a range of handcrafted decorations designed to fill your home with warmth and natural beauty.
Every item is made entirely by hand, using a carefully curated mix of dried eucalyptus, gypsophila, and dried oranges. Together, these elements capture the scent, colour, and texture of the season, fresh, uplifting, rustic, and timeless.
Why Eucalyptus, Citrus & Gypsophila?
This trio has become the signature of my festive range, and for good reason:
Eucalyptus brings a calming winter freshness, with soft, muted green tones that complement any Christmas décor style. In my wreaths I use fresh foliage which will dry beautifully in the warmth of your home.
Citrus adds warmth, colour, and gentle, nostalgic fragrance, instantly evoking cosy kitchens, mulled wine, and festive treats.
Gypsophila offers a snowy, delicate touch, adding softness and light to each arrangement.
Together, they create a Christmas aesthetic that is natural, elegant, and beautifully understated.
What ties this collection together is the love and time poured into each piece. Every wreath, stocking, posy, and tiny wish bottle is arranged, stitched, tied, and finished by hand.
The result? Decorations that feel personal, natural, and filled with festive spirit.🎄
If you’re like me, you love the idea of nature’s beauty sticking around for a little longer. That’s where dried flower bouquets come in! They’re the perfect way to enjoy the natural charm of flowers long after the season has passed. What’s even better? All of the flowers I use are grown right here in the UK – handpicked, dried, and turned into gorgeous, one-of-a-kind bouquets for you to enjoy in your home or give as a thoughtful gift. Let me tell you why these bouquets are totally worth the love!
Locally Grown, Totally Sustainable
First off, these blooms are British-grown, which means they’re sustainable and support local farming. No air miles, no refrigeration—just natural, locally sourced flowers that are in tune with the seasons. Choosing these bouquets is an easy way to make a positive impact, all while bringing a little piece of nature into your space. Plus, supporting local farmers is always a win!
No Two Bouquets Are Alike
Dried flower bouquets are wonderfully unique. I handpick and arrange every single one, so no two are ever quite the same. It’s like having a little piece of nature’s artwork that’s totally one-of-a-kind. Whether you’re into soft, pastel vibes, bold and rustic, or somewhere in between, each bouquet tells its own story. And the best part? You get to enjoy something that’s completely different from anything you’d find in a supermarket or at your average flower shop.
They Last (Like, Really Last)
One of the best things about dried flowers is how long they last! Unlike fresh flowers that wilt after a few days, dried flowers stick around for months, or even years. They’ll keep their vibrant colours and textures, giving you a little reminder of nature’s beauty long after the event is over.
Perfect for Any Occasion
Whether you’re getting ready for a wedding, celebrating a birthday, or just sprucing up your home, dried flower bouquets are perfect for any occasion. They’re a beautiful and eco-friendly option for weddings (think dreamy flower crowns or bridal bouquets, perfect rolex), but they also work wonders as a thoughtful gift or just to brighten up your living room. Their laid-back, rustic charm fits seamlessly with any decor, making them super versatile for just about any setting.
Nature’s Textures and Colours
I don’t know about you, but I think dried flowers have a certain texture and charm that fresh flowers just can’t match. The soft, delicate feel of lavender, the golden warmth of wheat, and the feathery texture of grasses create a natural, textured bouquet that looks like it’s straight out of a boho dream. These aren’t your average flowers – they’ve got layers, movement, and tons of character. Perfect for adding a cosy vibe to your space!
Low Maintenance, High Vibes
Another reason I love dried flowers? They’re super low maintenance. No need to water them, trim the stems, or worry about them wilting if you forget to tend to them. Just pop them somewhere they can enjoy a bit of light (but not too much direct sun), and they’ll keep looking gorgeous with minimal effort. It’s the perfect option for those of us who want nature in our homes but aren’t exactly plant experts.
The Ultimate Keepsake
Dried flowers also make amazing keepsakes. After a wedding, special occasion, or even just a fun get-together, you can hang onto your bouquet and keep it as a reminder of a wonderful day.

2024 was a year of growth for me, both personally and professionally. As my business expanded, it naturally took more time away from my creative process, but it was so rewarding. I experimented with different flower varieties—some I won’t be growing again, while others will definitely make a return!
One of the highlights of last year was crafting dried flower buttonholes. I created so many of them, and it was such a joy. Buttonholes have always been one of my favorite items to design. My second most requested piece was floral headbands. I absolutely love making these, especially when I get to see the beautiful professional photos of them being worn—it’s such a heartwarming feeling.
My summer months were filled with weddings, as I had the honor of helping so many wonderful couples choose natural dried flowers for their big day. Thank you to each and every one of you for entrusting me with such an important part of your celebration.
Autumn brought a wave of orders for gift bouquets, bespoke wall swags, and gorgeous wreaths. Wreaths were such a hit that I’m planning to make even more leading up to Mother’s Day—there’s just something so special about them.
Christmas was all about fresh wreaths, a tradition I’ve been perfecting for over 25 years! Creating them was a joy, but I’ve decided this year will be my last for making them. I want to focus more on dried flowers and use the festive season to prepare for the year ahead. While I’m saying goodbye to fresh wreaths, I’m deeply grateful for every customer who’s bought one from me over the years.
Now, as we move into a new year, I’m excited for all the flowery fun ahead!
