Natural, Compostable Farewell & Sympathy Flowers, Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria.
Funeral flowers are a very personal choice, offering a way to say goodbye as well as show respect, affection and love for the individual deceased. The funeral tributes I create are seasonal, using methods and natural materials that are fully biodegradable or recyclable. If you’re looking for “wildflower style” or “garden style” farewell flowers inspired by nature, I can help you.
Truly seasonal funeral arrangements can be made all year round, using only British grown flowers and foliage.
I have some basic offerings for you to consider, however I am happy to work with your ideas and suggestions to create what you are looking for. Do feel free to call or email with any questions – 017683 71006 (my husband is likely to answer the phone, but if not, leave a message and contact number if you don’t get a reply and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can) or email frances@clodhopperblooms.co.uk
The most popular options for flowers to go on the top of a coffin are:
- a tied sheaf
- a wreath
- a casket spray
I can also create bespoke arrangements for you – sometimes this might include using some foliage/flowers from the deceased’s garden, using an item that was connected to the person, maybe a pair of boots, a heart shaped arrangement, or it could be using a quote written out as a centre piece for the flowers (I’m also a calligrapher, so I’m happy to help you with this too).
How do I organise funeral flowers?
When you get in touch with me by phone or email, I will ask you about preferred colours, any flower preferences – either to include or avoid, details of the service, the name of the person and if there is anything else you want to share with me. I will only use British grown material, so please bear in mind that the types and colours of flowers will vary by the season.
