No two Zen Bloom Boxes are ever the same, and we definitely don't just toss stuff in and call it a day. Every single arrangement is a total labor of love, handcrafted with real care and artistry by our in-house floral designer, Amy.
She thoughtfully curates each one using high-end compostable Sola Wood flowers, preserved botanicals, dried accents, and even permanent greenery you can repurpose into future blooms.
The result? A nostalgic, mood-lifting piece that looks effortlessly pretty and cozy, stays kind to the earth, and turns your space into the coziest, safest little sanctuary where you can finally breathe easy.
One box, endless gentle moments!
Big shoutout to Melanie, (and please follow @Mylou_Crafts) for showing us the sweetest way she's breathing new life into those preserved florals from her February Edition.
It's that perfect reminder that our bouquets aren't meant to just melt away and disappear. The non-melt parts? They're built to stick around, get repurposed, and keep adding those soft, nostalgic touches long after the scents have done their cozy magic.
Seeing it in action makes our hearts do a little happy dance. It's exactly why we love designing these as more than a one-and-done thing, they're little gifts that keep giving.
If you've got your own clever reuse ideas for the preserved bits (vase filler? Bookmark magic? Tiny shelf surprise?), snap a pic or drop a note. We'd love to cheer you on and maybe even share the inspo with the crew.

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.
P.S: 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), 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.
