As promised here are some gorgeous, dreamy photos of bouquets and arrangements I made for the Stancliffe Hall wedding open day by the always amazing Jade of Jade Alana Photography. If you're still looking for a photographer for your wedding, I can't recommend Jade enough...she always inspires and amazes me!! Thanks to Emma, her second shooter, for modelling for us...I draw the line at doing that!!

Here I paired huge fluffy white hydrangea heads with white cherry blossom from my garden in a white urn vase...I was very disappointed when I got home as my husband immediately removed the cherry blossom and threw it out complaining about hayfever!! Whatever happened to taking one for the team!! Oh well, it looks pretty in the photos!

I used simple jam jars to display peach roses and pink ranunculus for a country garden style feel...makes me want to make home-made lemonade and bunting!!

Soft pink roses with a brown satin handle and cameo style brooch...love these photos so much...

I love the mix of rich colours in this bouquet...deep burgundy and deep pink roses, pale pink spray roses and purple callas finished with a deep pink satin handle and diamantes.

Hope you feel inspired! Happy Monday!

I love Spring...blossom...open windows...washing on the line and beautiful spring flowers everywhere. My kids have been out on the trampoline everyday and I have even been tempted to curl up in a nice quilt in the evenings and sit out on the deck with a nice cup of tea...only the British would do that!! We have even had our first barbecue of the year and we mean to carry on!!! So here's a few photos from my morning walk with Bailey...

Yesterday, I made some spring table arrangements for an 80th birthday party at The Carriage Hall in Plumtree....spring flowers are so colourful and they smell divine!! I used simple pastel coloured enamel containers and let the flowers do the rest!!

Enjoy getting outside this week and doing the things that remind you of how beautiful our world is!! xx
