Looking to create a show-stopping piece for your dining area or special event? A suspended wreath may be just the thing!

Forget the traditional wall or door placement—instead, try hanging it from the ceiling to soften the space and create a stunning focal point.

Hanging wreaths, often seen at weddings or above dining tables, bring an eye-catching element and a splash of color to any room. Not only do they elevate the atmosphere, but they also allow for creativity and customization. If you’re crafting your own, consider adjusting the density, greenery, and floral selection to make a unique piece that truly reflects the needs and preferences of your customers.

Make your herbaceous halo the talk of the table, and add a modern twist to this timeless decor!

“Spring is the natural flowering season for the Ranunculus which comes in a plethora of colours and shades. We have chosen the pastel pink as the focal point of our fresh spring bouquet.”

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING YOUR SHOW-STOPPING HANGING WREATH

Select your ribbon/twine to tie around the wreath – you’ll need to tie it on 3 different points, once you’ve tied it, gather the twine together and create 1 knot (make sure your wreath is level).

Start wrapping floristry wire around the wreath. Create a bunch of 3-4 stems and place them on the wreath (these may have to be cut to size), wrap your floristry wire around the stems and repeat these steps. If you’re using trailing stems like our Green Amaranthus, think about spacing these stems evenly so the arrangement is balanced.

Our style, whilst essentially English, takes inspiration from many cultures.

In this project,  we introduced contemporary furniture and accessories into a Victorian villa garden room – embracing influences from Italy to India and beyond.

Boho Garden Room inspired by India and Italy

The client’s brief was bohemian relaxation and through clever use of neutral tones, prints and various textures, that’s exactly what we created.

Boho really was the name of the game – from the bespoke sofas with wooden frames to the colourful mix of fabrics

and textures in the cushions and throws. Oversized faux plants and foliage in hessian baskets and glass vases perfectly display the beauty of the natural world, bringing a touch of majestic jungle to this Cheshire home.

“The perfectly considered console table
is naturally inspired, where curved shapes
and hard edges meet plush textures
and botanical florals”

Boho Table Arrangement

Materials and textures range from raw and rustic to smooth and seductive, while designs that incorporate wrapped and bound elements provide an experimental and decorative touch, such as tabletop featuring woven rattan and accessories made from rustic fibres, including plant pots, oversized wicker vases and rattan side tables. 

The perfectly considered console table is naturally inspired, where curved shapes and hard edges meet

plush textures and botanical florals – a winning combination to create visual impact while maintaining a sense of tranquillity. From coral to shell, rustic pots to the Carrera marble and white-washed wood, the power of nature prevails in every carefully chosen accessory and ornament. The effect is an eclectic mix – all our client needs to do is sit back, close their eyes and within just a moment, they could be in Ibiza, Marrakech or Capri – wherever their mood takes them.

Natural materials and textures in a country cottage with a contemporary extension

Natural materials and a range of textures were the overriding theme for this project in Lower Peover, which involved the complete design and styling of the lounge and open-plan kitchen and dining room.

Anita Jones Interior Styling Kitchen Diner

After investing in a breathtaking contemporary extension, the client was keen to make the most of the stunning open views and light-filled spaces afforded by the vast amount of glass and surrounding gardens.

The cottage was transformed from a series of small dark rooms into fewer large interconnected open-plan spaces ideal for entertaining. A neutral colour palette replaced the repressive black beams and the double-height kitchen and dining extension was a welcome modern addition to the traditional property.

The first task was a makeover of the lounge, which kickstarted the rest of the project. Once we’d selected the ideal neutral colour scheme, it was time to explore the critical key furniture and accessory trends to take this unique home into its next phase of life.

Materials and textures range from raw and rustic to smooth and seductive, although most were still heavily influenced by the beauty of the natural world. With its exquisite imperfections, natural raw wood is ideal for large furniture and smaller accessories – the perfect choice for a home surrounded by stunning woodland and rolling countryside.

We created a bespoke piece of furniture for the lounge from solid light oak to house the TV controls

and provide useful storage for the media wall and contemporary feature fireplace.

Continuing the natural theme, we incorporated stoneware accessories, a rustic wooden clock made from bleached driftwood with brass trimmings and filigree brass side tables.

Adding an element of cosy comfort, the soft furnishings, bespoke sofas and plush central pouffe (with hidden storage) provided a complete contrast to the clean, sharp edges of the rustic elements. Sumptuous velvets in a neutral colour palette and the crisp ivory linen of the occasional chairs demonstrate how effectively a combination of contemporary and classic design pieces can work seamlessly together.

“The cottage was transformed from
a series of small dark rooms into fewer
large interconnected open-plan spaces

The lounge flows straight into the kitchen and dining area, with porcelain ‘wood style’ tiles tying the two spaces together and creating a homogenous flow of textures and colour palettes. Farrow & Ball’s Cornforth White and Moles Breath perfectly set the tone for this welcoming and relaxing space. Carrera marble worktops and splashbacks create smooth, clean lines, while the chrome sockets and cabinet hardware add a touch of elegance.

This sense of luxury follows into the dining area, with its striking vaulted ceiling, statement light fittings and cosy log burner. A Carrera marble dining table ties the two spaces together and an oversized ornate mirror brings the outside in, bouncing natural light around the room and reflecting the gorgeous garden outside.

The space also afforded our client a breakfast area with floor-to-ceiling bespoke cabinetry and a comfy reading nook, providing the ideal place to take in the Sunday papers or natter on the phone with a friend. Patio doors lead directly to the green-fingered client’s beloved and perfectly maintained herb garden, greenhouse and cutting garden – after enjoying their time outdoors, the oak and marble worktop offers the perfect space to arrange flowers or sort through their latest crop of homegrown veg.

Arts and Crafts Bedroom in the heart of cheshire

A mix of textures adds layers to the look, from the soft grey and white classic damask embroidered headboard to the crisp edges of the embedded polished chrome reading lights. Framing the bed, the juxtaposition of rustic touches

provided by the willow heart wall hangings, ceramic decorative ornaments and the Moroccan-inspired lanterns on bedside tables complete this simply blissful space.
