Our floral stylist, Eloise, shares her top tablescaping tips for the season.
There’s nothing quite like a Christmas spent together. Guests at the door, presents under the tree, laughter echoing through the kitchen. After dinner is served – plates are piled high, stories have been shared and music's now playing a little louder than before.
There’s something quietly wonderful about gifting flowers. They don’t just brighten a space — they shift the mood, soften a moment and say things words can’t. But when you’re not sure what someone loves most, or when they’ll be home to enjoy it, a flower gift voucher is a thoughtful alternative that still blooms with joy – whatever the season.
Crimson. Ruby. Scarlet. Meet the flower of the season — always ready to shine

There’s a quiet magic in Tabby Booth’s work — bold silhouettes that hold both stillness and story. Based in Falmouth, Cornwall, Tabby is an artist, illustrator and curator whose work explores character and contrast. Having co-founded Cygnets Art School and later Sailors Jail Gallery, her creative path has taken her from teaching children’s art classes to curating exhibitions in a converted 17th-century jail. We caught up with her to talk about creative rediscovery, painting flowers, and how interiors shape the way she sees the world.
