Busy Bee in East Devon
Flowers, wreaths and gifts.
Not one for sitting on her laurels (or flowers!) Alison at Busy Bee has opened up shop in Axminster in East Devon
If you are looking for flowers or gifts then why not take a look.
Like all good florists Alison can also manage to make a few twigs look amazing, and as we head into Christmas this is exactly what we need in our houses.
The traditional winter wreath is made of long lasting evergreen leaves. It’s thought the Romans used them on their doors to represent victory and Christians adopted them to symbolise everlasting life along with the circular shape that has no beginning or end.
From brightening a kitchen with the heady scent of hyacinths after Christmas or those early daffodils that prove Spring is on it’s way, to the fabulous arrangements people receive for their birthday or have decorating a wedding reception – flowers are often around us and can evoke such a range of emotions on many occasions.
Wreaths make a great option inside and out for brightening up our houses, adorned with candles, ribbons or glittering things they also make a great pre-Christmas present for someone. Why not try making your own – there is a chance to have a proper lesson at Alison’s wreath making classes.
You will find Alison’s shop on South Street, Axminster.
