Are you stuck not knowing what to gift your Mum this mothering Sunday - Mother’s Day? Well, my fingers are crossed that you might love this wonderful combination!
I think that dogwood blossoms far outshine cherry or the other blossom families. The size, the beautiful white flowers with their darling little detailed petals, make these exceptional specimen blooms that really can hold their own or solo in a vase.

Here are some wedding table flowers for Nancy! I’ve had a request from Nancy who lives in the UK. Nancy fell upon my ‘Wedgewood blue vase series’ while she was hunting for something pink and pretty for her wedding
Often, I am asked can you incorporate and use flowers from differentseasons and can you use fresh with permanent botanicals? To this Iwant to say, yes you can have and do whatever you desire.As an aside, long before permanent botanicals hit the market, this waspretty much impossible because flowers and foliage choice andselection was dependent on the season.Now that we have this amazing array of permanent botanicals,designing couldn’t get any easier. Let’s face it, nature doesn’t alwayshave what we want in shape form or colour or capability to provide thequantity necessary to fulfil the design brief. A hail storm can destroy inmoments a field of spring ranunculus, a bug might have createdimperfections on the petals of roses and my biggest fear, due toclimatic conditions, there is too much rain and the dahlia’s rotted in theground. Worries of the past are gone, so next time you are thinkingyou can’t reach for a stem or two of ‘forever’ blooms, or your much-loved bloom isn’t seasonally available, just know that it’s an easy fix andreally, if that is want you desire, then just do it!Today’s design is all about sharing, how super easy it is to create yourown bouquet and if creams, whites and blush are your colorwaychoice, I hope you like this combination.

Kelly has reached out and asked if I could share how to create the bouquets and table flowers for her late summer wedding. All celebrations are to take place on the family farm with feasting in the barn. Nothing too fancy, just a few sunflowers, golden roses, hydrangeas and her favourites, rosehips and gumnuts.
