Happy Hogmanay!

We wish all our customers a very Happy New Year when it arrives. We had a great 2011 and we couldn't have done it without you. Thanks for working with us to create some beautiful flowers.

We have set up our final event of the year - the Gathering of the Clans at Cameron House - where we created contemporary Scottish table displays using thistle, liatris, and veronica with a hint of tartan and lots of candlelight.

Happy Hogmanay!

Our final weddings of 2011

This week we completed our final weddings of the year at Hotel du Vin at One Devonshire Gardens and House for an Art Lover.

For the first wedding we combined crisp white ranunculus with anemones, Viviane roses and delicate helleborus. For the second we used hundreds of Coolwater roses to complement the colour scheme of the Music Room at House for an Art Lover.

We wish both couples our best wishes as they start 2012 together!

Amaryllis Bar Mitzvah

We love working with amaryllis at this time of year and today we created some simple but striking table designs of white amaryllis in black vases for a Bar Mitzvah celebration.

Christmas at Cameron House

Today we spent the day at Cameron House on the banks of Loch Lomond installing Christmas. This involved decorating eleven Nordman Fir Christmas trees, garlands for the fireplaces and the entrance staircase, a poinsettia display above the beautifully crafted revolving door and filling the hotel with vases of ilex berries and red cornus. We wish we were heading to this stunning property to stay this Christmas......





The View - House for an Art Lover

We were delighted to work with House for an Art Lover this morning designing flowers for their beautiful new meeting space 'The View'. Not only did it give us a little respite in a crazy week of Christmas installations but it allowed us to bring a simple aesthetic to this Charles Rennie Mackintosh designed building using classic Mackintosh flowers in the form of tulips and calla lilies.

The Flower School at Mood Flowers


We've had a busy few days at our Flower School with the Signature Style Masterclass on Sunday and Table Centrepieces last night. We love teaching our skills and style and had some great participants on both classes.

Next up are the Christmas classes which take place on Thursday 22nd December before we start the new year with lots of new additions to our schedule including our One Week Career Course - there are only two spaces left on this so please get in touch soon if you would like to take your first steps into a new career.







Bar Mitzvah at Radisson Blu


On Saturday we created flower designs for a Bar Mitzvah. In the morning, we filled the synagogue with white phalaenopsis orchids then used 1,500 Grand Prix roses to create architectural table centrepieces for dinner in the Radisson Blu hotel. With help from events company Banana Split, who lit the room beautifully, we were delighted with the results.
