Wooden Flower Gifts for Mum on Mother's Day.

March 14, 2022

Wooden Flower Gifts for Mum on Mother's Day.

Something magical happens when we get new machines in the studio. Seeds of ideas germinate in my brain and then we play, and test, and play some more and something wonderful blossoms.

And that’s literally what happened with our latest loves, the wooden flower children!

Wooden flower gift for Mum with personalised message

We’d started learning what our flat bed printer could do before Christmas 2020 - remember the polar bear I painted? And while this beast of a machine, that we affectionately call Cookie Monster, can make larger scale things, we focused on small and beautiful things to start with.
Playing with scale started with the mini me Family In A Box gift that we dreamt up during lockdown. There’s something fun about making mini versions of the humans we know and love and propping them in unexpected places. You wonderful people really embraced the concept and everyone adored their families in the post.

From that gem of an idea we started to think about just the smaller people, and how to create even more joy and fun with their images. Inspired by everything from Victoria Plum, to The Borrowers, to the idea of fairies at the bottom of the garden, our wooden flowers with added children were born.
We’ve created some absolutely beautiful blooms. Tulips, roses, daisies, sunflowers, and even eucalyptus.

A unique bouquet gift for Mother's Day

Each flower is available as a single bloom, but you can also build a whole everlasting bouquet of wooden stems to create a unique gift.

The best thing about these flowers is that we work with your own photographs of your children to create something that's truly one of a kind and really meaningful. You can have fun with the small ones and take some new images just for this project, with the shapes of the leaves and flowers in mind; we have great examples in our gallery of imaginative children’s poses. Or, we can work with images that you already have, especially with our newborn flowers where the baby is held by a curled leaf.

A wooden work of art

To make your children’s photos and the flowers work beautifully together, we give them both a watercolour effect. It makes them look hand painted and adds to the fairy like feel of this bespoke gift.

Presented in a Kraft gift box they make a wonderful, long lasting gift for Mum or the Grandparents that trumps a basic bunch of flowers any day. They always raise a smile and tug at the heart strings. Children love to give them, as much as we'd all love to receive them.

One of my favourite mini organisation jobs for this time of year is filling out the new wall planner. All the birthdays, anniversaries, and events already booked get written in. Birthdays in ink, and events in pencil - you never know what will come along to knock an event off track, but a person's birthday is their birthday no matter what!

Getting beautifully organised with our gorgeous paint-chip wall planner

The traditional wall planner needed some Betsy magic that's for sure. Here's how our wall planner life used to play out, tell me if this resonates. You buy what you think is a BIG wall planner. It's been beautifully designed too, so it looks great on the wall. Then you write ONE THING on a day and, *poof*, no more space for anything else on that day.

Does that sound familiar?

Why I DIY my advent calendars

Now, if you're my age or thereabouts, you've seen the evolution of the advent calendar from a piece of card with pretty pictures behind the doors, to ones filled with chocolate (although it was crappy chocolate, but we were kids and it was still chocolate!) to significantly better chocolate ones, all the way to OMG ones that cost more than any other present I intend to buy this year.
