everlasting flowers
Handmade bouquets are a pretty neat way to make sure your blooms stick around for longer than just a couple week.
Flowers really know how to toy with our emotions. One day they're blooming marvellously, filling us with joy as they spread their lovely petals; the next they're droopy and dry, stirring feelings of guilt that there was more we could have done. A few extra drops of water? Some more time on the windowsill? It's a horrid cycle of Plant Lovers' Remorse, and enough to put anyone off swapping pennies for posies.
Handmade bouquets are a pretty neat way to make sure your blooms stick around for longer than just a couple weeks, and these felt flowers from Sugar Snap Boutique have got all the best bits of the real thing – colour, pretty shapes, general loveliness – while avoiding the sad moment when we realise our buds are destined for the compost heap. If you're keen on the idea of some everlasting flora, you might fancy their felt bunting, banners and bowties, too.
