As a Biosphere Partner and eco-friendly florist on the Isle of Man, we are passionate about promoting sustainability in our industry. In this blog post, join us as we explore the popular trend of dried flowers and provide you with creative ideas to incorporate them into your home decor and gifting options this season.
Here at The Flower Studio we love to dry flowers to use in our work – from those we have grown ourselves to stems that don’t get sold in fresh bouquets in the shop.
Transform Your Home Decor
From wreaths and tied bunches to elegant glass displays, dried flowers offer endless possibilities for beautifying your home. Choose colours and textures that complement your interior design, and easily switch them out with the changing seasons.
Create stunning centrepieces for your dining table or mantlepiece, as dried flowers don’t require water and can be displayed with or without a vase. Add a touch of natural beauty to your home’s entrance with customisable wreaths that perfectly match each season.
Give Sustainable Gifts
Our dried flower cards make the perfect gift, especially for long-distance mailing. Looking for a personal touch? Try our DIY kits to create your own dried flower treasures.
Box frames with glass casings protect and enhance dried flower arrangements, offering a memorable and customisable gift for weddings, anniversaries, or birthdays.
Unleash Your Creativity
Don’t let forgotten objects clutter your home. Upcycle and breathe new life into them with dried flowers. Create unique and stunning decorations by adorning frames and vintage finds with sprays of dried flowers and gorgeous ribbons. Hang or display these beautiful custom birdcages in any room to suit your decor, but beware of direct sunlight fading the colours of the flowers.
Embrace Your Individuality
Discover the final creation we’ve been experimenting with: dried flower earrings! Adorn your ears with miniature vases of dried flowers dangling from macrame hangers. It’s a unique and sustainable accessory that will surely turn heads.
Dried flowers offer a sustainable and long-lasting alternative to fresh blooms, allowing us to appreciate their beauty while reducing waste. By incorporating dried flowers into your home decor and gifting options, you can embrace eco-friendly practices and contribute to a more sustainable future. Join us at one of our upcoming dried flower workshops and discover more about this timeless trend. Unleash your creativity and let nature’s preserved treasures inspire you.
