Florists and Flower Arrangers in and around Dunkeswell have come together to put on a beautiful floral display in aid of Britains heroes.

The Flower Wristlets are specially designed to have either fresh or silk flowers attached to them.  They come in many different styles and colours and can be made up to match the fabric of your dress. 

Besides the religious aspect to the Easter celebrations.  Floral decorations have additionally been very much part of tradition.  Easter time marks the start of spring and apart from using spring flowers, the Easter lily (Lilium longiflorum) is also used in the decoration of the church. The sanctuary colours for Easter being white and gold.

The flowers at St. Andrew’s were arranged by myself and various other volunteers from the Parish, some of whom are regular church flower arrangers.  Daffodils, pussy willow and forsythia were kindly donated from the gardens of each vounteer for use in the window decorations.  White lilies, lisianthus and forsythia were used in the altar and pedestal arrangements.

Keeping enthusiastic and up to date with the latest trends is obviously vitally important when it comes to designing flowers for weddings and special events.  Therefore starting a club with a small group of other like minded florists who are passionate about flowers seemed to be a good idea.  So that’s what we are going to do!   We are planning to meet one evening a week and to use the time to exchange ideas, try out new techniques and of course have a good chat.
