ABOUT 

 I have always loved the beauty of nature, watching the sky, looking into the heart of a flower and being aware of the birds, bees and butterflies in the natural world around me. 

Garlands of Grace started back in 1995 when God gave me this name from scripture for my creativity. I was making beautiful hand painted silk cards, scarves etc.   

After qualifying as a professional florist, in Interior Design and taking my Cert Ed- "Garlands of Grace developed" -  workshops, teaching and having the privilege of designing flowers for many beautiful and very special weddings - my first website was created!

After a break caring for my parents I completed the NWP Ministry Training Course to learn more about God's word. Then RHS Diploma in Horticulture to learn more about God's creation. I have always been a keen gardener and photographer - a course at Lee Abbey helped me to solidify ideas for the next step forward. 

My vision for many years  -  
God's Creation and God's Word.
