Hey there! I’m Sophy

Your country-loving floral designer & stylist with a heart for dogs and a soft spot for all things (and people!) with bags of character!

After years in hospitality flying the world as a VIP flight attendant, I’ve landed in North Devon, swapping shiny heels for grubby wellies and first-class cabins for fresh air, muddy paws and countryside living.

These days, I create with mostly dried flowers, from gift bouquets and home décor to wedding styling and seasonal creative workshops, all designed with warmth, style, and just the right amount of magic.

And because dogs are at the heart of everything I do, 5% of every sale is donated to Dogs Trust, helping rescue dogs find safety, care and second chances.

    "Sophy is absolutely talented at what she does - she carefully listened to our requirements and prepared all the various floral displays, including my bridal bouquet, hairpiece, buttonholes, cake flowers, table flowers, etc, more beautifully than we had imagined them. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for stunning flowers!" - Tahsina

    A Beautiful Surprise Wedding!

    "…as we did not live near her we had phone meetings, and she sent us a beautiful mood board that we just loved! We handed over the joint ideas to her and then collected the flowers the weekend before our surprise wedding. We were blown away by how beautiful they were! Absolutely perfect! They really did make our day so special and now my bouquet has pride of place at home. Sophy really made sure that she knew our story and ideas and created flowers with so much love. I will be forever grateful that we made the journey that day and met the most beautiful soul that is Sophy." - Toni & Lee
