  1. There’s something quietly magical about forever Flowers.

    In a world where fresh blooms have long been the traditional choice, dried flowers are stepping into the spotlight with a kind of effortless elegance that feels both modern and timeless. For couples looking to weave personality, sustainability, and longevity into their wedding day, premium dried flower bridal bouquets and arrangements offer a beautifully distinctive alternative.

    A Bouquet That Lasts Beyond the Day

    Fresh flowers, lovely as they are, have a fleeting life. Dried flowers tell a different story. They’re preserved at their peak, allowing you to keep your bouquet not just for a few days, but for years to come. Long after the confetti has settled and the cake has been eaten, your bouquet remains a tangible piece of your wedding day.

    Think of it as a floral time capsule.

    Effortless Style, Naturally

    Dried flower wedding flowers bring a unique texture and palette that fresh blooms simply can’t replicate. Soft neutrals, muted pastels, earthy tones, and delicate seed heads create arrangements that feel organic and refined all at once.

    Whether your wedding style leans toward rustic countryside charm, modern minimalism, bohemian romance,  or Glitz & glam dried flowers slip seamlessly into the aesthetic without trying too hard. They don’t shout. They whisper beautifully.

    Designed with Care, Made to Order

    Our premium dried flower bridal flowers are carefully handcrafted, with each stem thoughtfully chosen to create balance, movement, and character. No two bouquets are ever quite the same, which means yours will be as individual as your day.

    From bridal bouquets and buttonholes to bridesmaid posies and flower girl baskets, every piece is designed to complement your vision while maintaining that signature dried floral elegance.

  2. Choosing The Right Christmas Garland.


    Discover the best Christmas Garlands for Christmas 2024

    Christmas is a tme for magic and fairytales, to bring true Joy and Happiness to all. We all have our own Christmas traditions, but the one main Christmas tradition most of still follow, is decorate our homes with all things Christmas. 

    The one time of year we can truly go all out and decorate our homes from outdoor Christmas decorations, to a winterwonderland in our livingrooms. One way of creating your very own winterwonderland is to add Garlands to your home. 

    Christmas Garlands create a focal point within the home, alongside the beautifully decoratored Christmas Trees. 

    But how do we know what to Christmas Garland to choose ?

    Here at Stassi's Bespoke Creations, we believe choosing Artificial Christmas Garlands are the best option. By choosing Artificial Christmas Garlands, you are buying into long lasting decorations, you can reuse each and every year for years to come. 

    Artificial Christmas Garlands can be used outdoors, in most circumstances when sprayed with protective spray. This allows you to be able to reuse your Christmas garlands in different areas of your homes each year. 

    The Perfect example of this is the PINK CANDY CANE GARLAND attached below, this style of garland can be hung indoors as a fireplace Garland or used as a front door Christmas Garland.

    Alternative places to hang the same garland.

    • Staircase Garland
    • Window surround Garland
    • Doorway Garland
    • Internal Doors Garland
    • Wrapped around Christmas Trees
    • Railing Garland
    • Arch Christmas Garland. 

    How do you hang a garland? 

    We have made our garlands to be hung easily with minimal effort, if you are hanging  your Christmas Garland outdoors around doorways, we advise to use large cable grips, and hook the middle of the garland to the cable grip and hammer into the bricks mortar. This needs to be done all way around the garland to secure it all to the wall. 

    If you have UPVC you can use strong self adhesive hooks, and secure them to the garland with tiewraps. This is less secure than cable ties. So please ensure you purchase strong self adhesive hooks. 

    When hanging your Christmas garland to staircases, you can usually use the stems of the Artificial Garland, to tie them to the railings or hand rail. 

    When hanging your Christmas Garland on a Mantle, you can hang them in several ways depending on the Mantle shape. The majority of our garlands, can be draped over mantles without anything else, as the weight of the draped sides will anckor the Garland into place. 

    If you would like the Garland to hang infront of the mantle, I advise to use several tack nails into the wall directly above the mantlepiece, and attach the garland with string or fishing line as this is clear and less likely to be seen. 

    What to look for when choosing a Christmas Garland? 

    Our Handmade Christmas Garlands, are made to last for years to come, we have many different styles to choose from, our most popular style of Christmas Garland, is our Deco mesh garlands. Deco Mesh allows the Garland to instantly add colour  throughout the Christmas Garland, and perfect for our bold Whimsicial Christmas Garlands, such as our best selling CANDY CANE GARLAND

    Christmas Garlands, should be full of accessories, from ribbons, baubles, Christmas Picks, winter flowers, this allows the garlands to instantly become more of a luxury Christmas Garland. 

    When Choosing a handmade Christmas Garland, it is essential to make sure the accessories such as the picks, Baubles, flowers are not just being glued to the garland base, as this will shorten the lifespam of the Christmas Garland, especially when hung outdoors.

    For Example: When we create a Bauble Garland, we individually glue each bauble top, which takes hours. We then create bauble garlands to attach to the pine Garland, that spirals throughout the Garland, Clusters can also be made, and then focal baubles are attached individually. 

    All of these baubles are then attached to the pine garland, with tiewraps, and wire. to secure them even more. 

    We ship to all Mainland UK, and offer payment plans to spread the cost of your decorations throughout the year. If you would like to discuss your decorations with me please email us at [email protected]
