A little about Francesca...

Many years ago I sat in an office doing a job I was good at and didn’t even hate but it wasn’t enough. I needed something else. I have a beautiful brother who sadly suffers with mental illness. This rocked my world when he first become unwell, but this rocking gave me this feeling I needed to Do something.  Something so vastly different from what I found myself doing day to day. 

I needed to create. I needed to connect. I needed beauty. I needed joy. I needed MAGIC!

I went hunting, I started searching for JOY. I invited magic in. I started doing a floristry course for my own wellbeing. 

So, I think the first step of finding magic is simply asking for it to appear (and then being a bit patient).

Did you know studies have shown flowers are a natural mood enhancer? (I knew this without a study).

 When given as a gift, flowers put a smile on the face of the receiver.  The simple act of receiving flowers can increase positive thinking for several days following the initial acceptance of this gift.

It doesn’t matter if this is a gift to others or a gift to yourself. To me this is MAGIC! 

Through our shared love of flowers, I want this JOY to spread further. I’d love for us to connect. I want you to show me the magic in your life too. I want us to share the magic together. 

I see you. When you stop and take time to breathe in the fragrance of the blooms, I see you relax, you breathe a little deeper.  I see you stop and enjoy the beauty. It’s joy, it’s MAGIC!

Since all this began my family has expanded to include my husband Steve (who you will see a lot of on Social Media, as he is way more fun than me), our son Jasper and our little girl Arabella, and Steve's daughter Amelia. We are a family business who loves to share and spread joy and happiness with flowers.
