My Story

Nature’s Moments, Made to Last

Hello! I’m Nicola,

the hands behind Bramble and Beyond, where I’ve somehow managed to turn my obsession with flowers into a business (still a bit of a shock, if I’m honest). It all started with a love for getting my hands dirty, planting seeds, and watching nature unfold. Over time, I became more aware of the beauty and sustainability of dried flowers, which keep their charm long after their fresh-cut counterparts would have withered away. So here I am – growing, drying, and arranging flowers that celebrate the seasons and hold a bit of the wild within them.

Bringing the Beauty of the British Countryside Inside

I work from my own little plot, where I grow each flower with care and without any nasty chemicals. My aim is to keep things as sustainable as possible – so I let the seasons decide what’s on offer, whether it’s the softer shades of spring or the fiery hues of autumn. As someone who’s always adored a more natural, untamed look, I design each arrangement to capture that same essence. Dried flowers allow me to create pieces that last, so they’re not just for a moment but for the long haul – bringing that earthy, bohemian touch into your home all year round.


Why Dried Flowers?

Dried flowers are nature’s way of letting us hold onto the beauty of each season a little longer. For me, they’re like memories – little pieces of summer days and autumn evenings that linger on. They’re also a lovely way to bring nature indoors sustainably. With the dried arrangements I create, there’s no need for constant replacements. My wreaths and bouquets are crafted to stay beautiful for months, sometimes even years, so you can enjoy a slice of the wild without worrying about waste.

Growing with Purpose

At Bramble and Beyond, sustainability is at the heart of what I do. I plant, grow, and dry all the flowers myself, embracing the seasons and working with what nature offers. It’s a slower process, but one that feels right. There’s something wonderful about knowing exactly where each stem has come from – and that it’s been nurtured with as much care as possible. Every wreath and bouquet reflects the beauty of our British countryside, bringing the outdoors in without the need for preservatives or chemicals.

So if you’re a bit of a nature-lover (or just fancy a unique, low-maintenance piece of décor!), I invite you to explore Bramble and Beyond. I’m here to help you bring a touch of the wild into your home, in a way that’s gentle on the planet – because beauty, after all, should never come at a cost.

Our Values

At Bramble and Beyond, our mission is simple: to bring beauty into the world in a way that honours it. Through seasonal, dried flower arrangements, we create art that is both beautiful and eco-conscious, offering a sustainable option to those who love nature as much as we do. Each piece is crafted with care from home-grown, hand-dried blooms, celebrating the natural shapes, colours, and textures of the wild.

01.

Sustainability


We believe that beauty should leave a light footprint. That’s why we grow our flowers using eco-friendly practices, free from harsh chemicals, and craft our arrangements with sustainable materials. From our garden to your home, we’re committed to using earth-conscious packaging and thoughtful methods, so every bloom and branch treads lightly on the planet.

02.

Authenticity


Every arrangement from Bramble and Beyond is as unique as the flowers that make it. No two pieces are exactly alike – and that’s how we like it! Each bouquet and wreath is handmade with love and a touch of whimsy, embracing the organic beauty of nature in its purest form. We celebrate the individuality of every stem, creating pieces that are perfectly imperfect, just as nature intended.

03.

Seasonality


Our creations are a reflection of the season’s natural offerings, from the soft pastels of spring to the rich tones of autumn. We work in harmony with nature’s cycles, allowing each season to guide the colours, textures, and varieties we use. By staying true to what grows naturally, we create arrangements that capture the spirit of the season – celebrating each one, just as it is.

Bring a bit of the outdoors in with Bramble and Beyond’s dried flower arrangements – designed for those who cherish natural beauty and want a piece of the wild in their homes. Whether you’re looking for a unique Christmas wreath, a lasting bouquet, or a personal touch for your space, Bramble and Beyond is here to bring a touch of the bohemian to every corner.
