Bits and Buds Uk

I'm Helen, owner of Bits and Buds in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire. I've been playing this flowery game for over a decade now and love love love designing and making with flowers for you. No matter the occassion I believe that flowers and plants convey a message and make people feel good, cared for and valued, they're magical! Thats why one of the best parts about my job after creating gift bouquets, making up corporate vases, designing your wedding flowers or helping to show elements of a loved one's personality in Sympathy flowers is delivering them to you. 

I create my work with honesty and passion using an artistic eye and creativity. I'm a real sucker for texture, fabulous foliage and a punch of colour here and there. I adore all types of flowers from soft romantic blousy ones to big, bold tropical ones. I have a rustic but edgy style offering unexpected combinations and alternative looks to your usual highstreet florist.

With concerns rising for our environment I'm conciencious of the impact of my work. I'm by no means a saint but I try where I can. I use as little floral foam as possible meaning no nasty plastics in our landfills and minimal packaging on your bouquets. They're still beautifully presented but you won't find a ton of cellophane. No big garish poly bows just simple ribbon trails and no glossy boxes or bags, just plain stylish paper wraps. In the end I think the flowers should do the talking, don't you?

Flowers are a part of my life, I simply can't be without them, I tried it once and it didn't last long let me tell you! When I'm away from the blooms for any amount of time including holidays I feel ancy and I simply have to get back to them. I even say good morning and ask after them all when I open up every day. When you ask me to help flower your worlds or want to join in on workshops for you or your children, affectionately dubbed as Little Buds, I get giddy with excitement.

So now you know a bit about me feel free to enjoy the website, join in the journey on Instagram and facebook and become an honourary Budder!
