Spring Dried Flowers – Refresh Your Home
Spring dried flowers represent a new start. This season is a time of optimism and promise so it’s great to be able to choose dry blooms and botanicals for home decor and bouquets that reflect this.
At daisyshopUK Spring starts with Valentines Day in February, moves right on to Mothers Day in March, closely followed by Easter, and all the time nature is becoming more and more abundant around us.

Buy dry blooms for spring interest
Seasonal images of Spring blooms L-R above:
- Helichrysum are not exclusively a spring flower but their bright, jolly flowers embody spring optimisim! Generally speaking, vibrant colours reflect the joy of a new season – the renewal of Easter is often celebrated with primary colours and brights.
- Natural Pussy willow stems aka Salix caprea are a more understated celebration of spring. Display a few stems in a vase for home decor. We dry our own and they always sell out!
- Spring gifts don’t have to be a big gesture – sometimes a little can say a lot, like this small handmade bouquet.
All the above are UK grown and would make a lovely Mothers Day gift. Or why not try making your own bouquet Mum using pastels and spring green like the pic below?
Spring cleaning: Lavender and fresh fragrances
Spring and spring-cleaning go hand in hand, and Lavender is a fragrance synonymous with cleanliness:
- Try fragrant dried lavender in little bags for cupboards and drawers.
- Make or buy lavender potpourri to freshen up the house.
- Citrus home fragrance – potpourri and oilssuch as Lemon, Lime or Orange add a clean zing and are great for kitchens and bathrooms.
