No two blooms are the same and we don’t just "toss things in a box" and hope for the best. Every single arrangement is a labor of love, thoughtfully and artistically handcrafted by our in-house floral designer, Amy.
She curates each piece to create a nostalgic, mood-boosting aesthetic using a high-end blend of compostable Sola Wood flowers, preserved botanicals, and dried accents. We even tuck in permanent greenery designed to be repurposed into your future blooms. It’s not just decor; it’s a sustainable masterpiece for your sanctuary.
Sola flowers (or shola flowers) are a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to cut or silk flowers. They are beautiful, look remarkably realistic, and last forever, making them a wonderful décor or gift item.
They are hand-crafted from the renewable wood of a marshy plant, primarily the Aeschynomene aspera (also known as the sola or shola plant). It's a very light, cork-like wood.
Thin sheets are shaved from the plant's core and then meticulously hand-cut and arranged by artisans to form realistic-looking flower petals and shapes. No machines are used in this process.
Made from a rapidly growing, renewable resource. They do not wilt, droop, or die, allowing them to last a lifetime and they can be easily dyed any colour to match any theme or décor.
Sola wood flowers have a spongy texture, save them as diffusers or potpourri. Simply add a few drops of your favourite essential or fragrance oils and they'll slowly diffuse the scent into the air.
To keep your sanctuary feeling fresh rather than cluttered, let’s get playful with your evergreen collection
- The Mini-Wreath: Wire together a few sprigs of preserved flowers and permanent greenery with a single Sola wood flower to create a small "wreath" for a door handle or a wine bottle gift.
- The Wellness Jar: Some Sola wood flower heads in to a clear glass jar or decorative bowl and add a few drops of essential oil to the wood flowers. It’s a beautiful, recycled way to keep your bathroom or hallway smelling like a spa without adding a single new item to your countertop.
- Napkin Rings: If you are hosting a spring brunch, use the wire stems of your greenery to wrap around cloth napkins add some preserved flowers to top them odd. It’s a zero-waste way to add a touch of "eco-luxury" to your table while giving your previous box items a sophisticated second act.
- Resilient Notes: Take a few sprigs of greenery from your preious boxes and use a small piece of twine to attach them to a handwritten "thank you" note or a "thinking of you" card. Giving these pieces a second life as a gift for a friend spreads the zen and prevents your own "bloom bin" from overflowing.
