There’s nothing more luxurious than pure white orchids…. 🖤. We made this modern arrangement of orchids, hydrangeas, roses and tropical foliage’s to match the gorgeous interior of a beautiful home last weekend. .

Loved this look from last week’s garden party. Fresh white orchids submerged alongside tropical foliage’s looked gorgeous topped with floating candles.

When @pinkhouseliving came to chat to the ladies of Hertford at an event organised by @socialmamahertford, @cherry_pie_makes made her feel at home by creating a gorgeous stage set @hertfordhouse with a bunch of us creative Hertford types.

We are still loving our Hummingbird install and only just realised we haven’t shared our pics of the gorgeous birdcages and plants that have become synonymous with Hertford’s prettiest pub. With luxurious wallpapers, decadent light fittings and a gorgeous bar, we love filling this place with quirky tropical flower displays in various tin urns and bowls every week. While we are a fresh flower florist, we provide lots of local bars, offices and hotels with planted displays and artificial arrangements. This fabulous pub showcases all three of what we can do in the most beautiful setting.

Our busy little flower shop on Hertford’s busiest street has had a makeover! Our walls (as well as our hands) were becoming a little tired, so we felt a change is as good as a rest! We also really feel that fresh flowers are a luxury and therefore our customers deserve to feel special in our shop! We hope our freshly painted deep dark navy walls, our decadent gold wallpaper, new lights and fancy ordering desk make ordering flowers as special as receiving them! 📸 @murleyandmaplesphotography

Our Signature Valentine’s Day range will be launching in a few days! With only two and a half weeks to go, have you planned your day of romance yet?

Rich reds, with soft pinks and cosy candlelight made for a romantic ambience in the prettiest of dining rooms.

And an appearance from Jane herself who attended this event.

I’m beyond excited for 2019… we’ve had a complete shop redecoration over the holidays and I can’t wait to share pictures of our new look. A change is absolutely as good as a rest (which is just as well, because frankly we got no rest this Christmas!). Its all dark and sexy and luxurious and we love it! Every day this week we’ve been so eager to get to work so that we can spend time inside the freshly painted and papered workroom.
We have some amazing weddings in the diary this year, some fabulous new contracts which we are so proud of, we are currently designing our Valentine’s and Mother’s Day range and the day to day running of our new shop has seen us delivering a wonderful 50 arrangements or bouquets in the last 3 days already!
It may be freezing, it may seem like balmy evenings are far, far away… but we have that warm fuzzy feeling about this year. Come and say hi and see what you think of our new shop decor!

Yeah I know… not everyone likes the glitz and sparkles like I do! So, we’ve created The Winter Herb Garden Hatbox. These tasteful hatboxes (comes in 3 sizes), are stuffed with white roses and spray roses, lisianthus and cotton balls, alongside sage and rosemary, eucalyptus, pine and pistache. A wonderfully fragrant, tasteful arrangement, perfect as a gift or ideal as a table centrepiece throughout the holiday week.

Hello princess! This little cutie is available from our web shop for delivery, or pick one up in store this week. A gorgeous little indulgent treat for yourself or as a gift.

Florist’s life! Now that most of our Christmas installs are done, I’m going to be shop based til the 24th! I’ve actually missed being in the shop, the busy buzz is building as it does every December and now that some schools are finished up, it’s going to be a mega one this week! Can’t wait for a day of wreaths, table decs and bouquets (and a little wedding too!). See you then! Christmas songs at the ready!

I’m so excited to tell you that we now stock the most wonderfully fragrant House of BlueBelle candles.
I thought long and hard about whether or not to sell these candles, as I’m so adamant that I am a flower shop and not a gift shop, my focus has and always will remain with flowers, we have little time to do anything else. We get sent lots of samples of lovely products, but it’s only these beauties which made me reconsider.
I had to share these with my customers as I know you’ll love them! They’re the perfect addition to our Signature bouquets. Available in store, or click to shop… and enjoy the fragrance as much as we do!
All 2 wick, luxury handmade candles are packaged in gorgeous white boxes and finished with a grey ribbon. Fragrances include Gin and Tonic (my fav drink), Peony (my fav flower) and Rhodes (which is a gorgeous rich and indulgent fragrance, perfect for cosy nights in – my fav thing).

This gorgeous Christmas planted wooden box is the perfect gift! Personally it evokes so many memories of my childhood Christmas. My mum’s best friend lived (and handily still does) in the coolest house along a cobbled alley way off Columbia Road. We would visit every Christmas and they would drink mulled wine while I wrapped presents on their living room floor (I didn’t mind, I’ve loved making things look pretty since forever!). During the day we would wander amongst the market stalls filled with flowers and plants and I was mesmerised by the sellers shouts and jokes. Little did I know that one day, I’d be amongst them in this wonderful game.

Who here loves a girly Christmas? We do! 🙋‍♀️ the reds and golds look cosy and the silver and whites look elegant… BUT, there’s something super indulgent about a pretty pink sparkly Christmas decor!

The Christmas Signature range has launched on our website.
This, Merlot Kiss, gold mason jar is filled with red Naomi roses, skimmia, dark red berries, spray roses and the cutest little decorative red robin birdy!
These make lovely gifts, or can be used as sweet centrepieces for your Christmas table.

For those of you who have not yet seen our makeover… here’s a pic! We’ve changed colour to a deep, dark navy and treated ourselves to a gorgeous new gold letter sign. Decked out for Christmas we have our external #floralinstallation and we are filled to the brim with fresh flowers delivered to us every day, shelves of planters and festive wreaths. Pop by and say hello and let us know what you think of our new look.

It’s fair to say that this year we have been truly spoilt with all of these Christmas installations! With only a couple more left to do, here’s one we did last week. This stunning New England style house, needed some American Christmas charm so we created this showstopper doorway. It really has been the most wonderful time of the year! (P.S. we didn’t do the door bow!)

Yesterday was a day of mostly wreath making! Hertford seems to be very organised with their wreaths so far, they’ve flown out the door! A new selection of wreaths have been made including beauts like this one, photographed on the smartest door on Fore Street! @thetownhousehertford

Christmas wonderland! Imagine coming home to this! This Christmas installation was all about creating a fabulous, traditional but decadent entrance to this beautiful home.

Christmas never looked so good! Beautiful meijer roses, arranged with metallic skimmia and asparagus ferns, with chunky candles, finished with fragrant cinnamon and cones. What beautiful home displays!

There seems to be lots of trees being decorated today! Good luck with yours if you’re attempting it!

Mantlepiece dressing is so quintessentially English! Since moving into a new modern home with no fireplace, my Victorian Christmas kicks come from decorating other people’s homes! WE love this fireplace display with soft pinks and pheasant features.

Throwback to this cracker of an installation we did last year. I think it’s fair to say that “Home Alone” is our inspiration for a lot of our Christmas Work! Who didn’t grow up with serious house envy for Kevin’s parent’s home?! Big, red bows, and chunky wreaths with lots of cinammon bundles! How cosy!

We absolutely loved installing this little burst of Christmas joy on those famous old bank doors of @practitionerhertford Not only because they’ve been providing us with little drinkable treats while we are working late for the last however many years and it’s fabulous to be asked to return the favour, but also because it’s our view from the front of our shop… so everyone’s a winner!
