Might be a bit ticked off with RHS and the Royal Mail! Majority of Chelsea finalists had their schedules for this years competition, yesterday - mine still not here and to top it the mannequin that we need to display it (that I haven't as yet received the details for) has now apparently sold out!!! Quite cross and already quite stressed - aaaarghhh!

Off to the Isle of Wight for the day to check out the brand new Blue Fox Gallery in Ryde and discuss forthcoming flower workshops - exciting new ventures!

Hurrah, hurrah, hurrah! Just had notification that I qualified as one of the finalists for Chelsea Florist of the Year 2016. Brief arrives next week - can't wait to see what it is!!

Hello! I am teaching a wedding flower workshop in Guildford for Surrey Adult Ed on Sat 19th March. Due to a cancellation some places are now available - please can you share this post and message if you are interested - will be lots of fun and very productive! Xx

Staying with my orange theme this week - this picture of one of my designs was taken by the talented and lovely person that is Julie Anne Skelton xx

How was your Tuesday? Hope it was a good one - mine was mainly spent in the garden - and when it rained I had a play - still loving orange!

A touch of orange to cheer up a grey February day? Happy Monday xx

Life is certainly smellier, hairier and more muddy with one but I wouldn't be without my Flossie!

Happy Valentine's Day - I am afraid this is not a picture of some flowers himself gave me this morning - I'm still waiting! I hope your loved ones have done better xx

I am currently wrestling with technicalities of setting up an online shop - it's taking a while! I thought I would share a sneak preview of a couple of items that will be on sale when I eventually get there! A couple of examples of quirky birdcages - one with bird and the other is planted with a mini orchid!

Keeping it real! I love seeing those lifestyle shots of beautiful artist workspaces - now for the reality of a florist workbench!!

Good to see my grasp of technology hasn't improved! The photos posted earlier are of my Chelsea heat design - delighted to have come second so just have to wait until the end of March to see if I make the final 16 - fingers crossed!
