Things are changing a little around here… 🌿
Some of you have been following me since the flower days — through weddings, workshops, early morning market stalls, installations and more buckets of foliage than I could possibly count.
Life has changed quite a bit since then, and slowly, this little corner of the internet is changing with me.
Over the coming weeks I’ll be bringing my social pages together under a new name — Wild Gorse.
It isn’t really a new business or a grand relaunch. It’s more a place for all the things I still love creating and collecting, without feeling that everything has to become work.
There will still be flowers, of course. But also our ongoing attempts to bring a little soul to our 1980s cottage, vintage pieces I find along the way, seasonal decorating, interiors, gardens, things gathered from the coast, two small dogs who inevitably get involved in everything, and probably quite a few tangents.
I’ve also started writing again.
This morning I’m publishing the first proper letter from Wild Gorse on Substack — a little introduction to where I’ve been, why things changed and what I hope this next creative chapter might become.
There’s no big content schedule. No promise to post every Tuesday at 9am. And definitely no ambition to turn myself into a full-time content creator.
Just a slower sort of online sketchbook — sharing things I make, find, restore, grow, arrange and occasionally sell.
And perhaps, along the way, I’ll dust off some of my old floristry teaching too. I have years of workshop photographs tucked away, so there may even be a few seasonal digital workshops appearing here eventually.
For those of you who have been here since the flower days, thank you for sticking around while things evolve.
And if homes, flowers, vintage finds, dogs, the sea and making life a little more beautiful sound like your sort of thing, I hope you’ll enjoy Wild Gorse too.
My first letter arrives tomorrow morning.
