Colours for this Autumn/Winter 2013

August 6, 2013
One thing I have learned in the world of Flowers and Interior Design...always follow the fashion trend in clothes and you'll never go wrong.

Whether we like it or not, the gurus of the fashion world really do dictate well in advance what colours are in and what colours are not. So when you're looking for inspiration theses colours can sometimes be a good starting point.

A lot of the public can unwittingly follow trends, choices in colours they decorate their homes with are no different.  So if...

Florist to Designer to Crafter


As an honours A Art student I quite litterally fell into Flower Design and opened my own shops in my early twenties. I ensured all my own staff were trained in by myself and imported a Dutch master florist for six months out of a year to be sure we all got the best from the best. After 14 years very successful trading, being the original Riverdance dedicated florist to the original production team, appearances on Irish daytime TV, florist to some of the biggest businesses and famous faces I took a break from the flower world. But as any crafts person or artist knows, you just can't escape the pull of creativity. I went on to study Interior Design and worked some years within the construction industry, bringing my personal flair and love for design. Now I am enjoying crafting supplying to local Irish businesses and gift shops as well as opening Little Craft Shop to bring professional cratfing products to other crafters...
