DAR, Pink Paint and John Hoyland...

December 20, 2015

Dahlias, phlox, verbena and scabious from my flower garden, and all the roses are DAR's from a friends garden.

My inspiration for this was John Hoyland's pink studies at his power station exhibition at the Newport Street Gallery.

I very rarely do a shoot, in fact I haven’t done one in over a year. So this was a little scary... when you have a plan in your head of how you want everything to look it’s often hard to make it a reality. But Chris, Abi, Kat, Sasha, Tabby (& little Sybil 💫) all made that happen in early September! Tap the pic for credits 🙌🏻

Colour matching the perfect speckled hydrangea with elder branches & dainty dahlias. A wild installation surrounding an antique bench in the old barn, installations can transform a space.

Catching that autumnal colour with elder branches, double pink Japanese anemones & mixed grasses. An installation piece for a shoot in early September at @fieldfarmbarnandgarden where my studio is. With @katrinabartlam

Making flowers for myself with the last of the roses 🥀 a beautiful backdrop & pastel plinths 💕 in early October

The beautiful barn where I get to create all of Vervain’s flowery projects. A space that will soon be available to hire via @fieldfarmbarnandgarden for small intimate events, shoots, dinners & ceremonies 🙌🏻

Journal post with more pictures of this pretty pastel tablescape now on my site.

Journal post, the first of a few, sharing ideas for pretty table decor. This week it’s elegant vintage cut glass filled with pastel pink, cream, lilac and purple summer flowers, dotted along neutral linens with tall pastel tapered dinner candles.

A reminder of late summer from @katrinabartlam

New fav. Shimmer ✨✨✨✨

Bearded Irises 💕 they take up nearly three beds of my small growing area & they only flower for about two weeks... 🤷🏻‍♀️ can’t help myself. #luxuryflowers

Frost hit flowers. Hi winter 👋🏻 that means it’s nearly time to start planning for 2019’s flowers, weddings & workshops.
