CHEAP FLOWERS
Against an immaculate white backdrop, a generous hand-tied bouquet appears almost three-dimensional, its rounded form and layered blooms drawing the eye from the outer foliage into the glowing heart of the flowers. Dominating the arrangement are large roses with petals that graduate from bright golden yellow at the centres to deeper orange and soft reddish tones along the outer edges, as if each flower is quietly lit from within. Surrounding them, clusters of white, daisy-like chrysanthemums create a light, airy ring, their smooth petals radiating around vivid lime-green centres that stand out sharply against the neutral background. Threaded throughout are compact magenta and fuchsia chrysanthemums, their densely packed petals forming plush, button-like heads with yellow-green cores that mirror the daisies and add a rich, jewel-coloured contrast. Dark green foliage, similar to ruscus, peeks out between the blooms, its sleek, slightly glossy leaves introducing a touch of woodland calm and helping to frame each flower. At the lower edge of the image, a tidy bundle of stems, varying from fresh green to pale brown, is visible where they are bound together, emphasising that this is a freshly prepared, hand-tied creation. The soft, even lighting flattens harsh shadows and lets every hue and texture speak clearly, much like the gentle daylight filtering through windows along Shacklewell Road. The overall effect is one of joyful sophistication, with the interplay of sunny yellows, bright whites, vibrant pink-purples, and deep greens making the bouquet ideal for celebrating milestones, sending thanks, or offering a colourful surprise to friends and family in and around Shacklewell.
BERRY BURST
£43.00
There is a serene craftsmanship to this bouquet: soft blush roses arranged like small, unfolding moons, cushioned by sprays of delicate white filler and bright, rounded berries that lift the composition. The eucalyptus provides a sculptural, silvered backdrop, its rounded leaves cooling the palette and releasing a faint, restorative scent. Interleaved among the main roses are touches of deeper pink and burgundy that deepen the visual field, while slender green-and-white flower spikes at the sides give the grouping a graceful sense of movement. The stems are hand-tied with a cream ribbon, the knot informal so the flowers read as freshly gathered from a cutting garden rather than overly formal. Set against a pale, carved stone or plaster background, the bouquet is photographed in soft daylight which brings out the blush tones and makes the whites glow with clarity. Imagine placing this on a side table in a Shacklewell sitting room or on a kitchen island near Stoke Newington Road, the scent and texture offering a quiet, tactile pleasure. This arrangement is equally suited to marking a modest anniversary, welcoming guests to a new home, or sending a heartfelt thank-you; its calm refinement translates well across occasions. The work demonstrates careful selection of seasonal stems and an understanding of scale and contrast - round, plush flowers balanced by airy sprigs and structural foliage - a small study in harmony that reflects local floristry traditions in East London.
FLORIST CHOICE £50
£50.00
Presented on a stark white field so the colours pop, this lush round bouquet brings together bold magenta Gerbera daisies, creamy white roses and deep purple Alstroemeria in a thoughtfully balanced composition. The gerberas, with their broad fuchsia petals radiating from dark, textured centres, provide a cheerful focal point that feels upbeat and contemporary. Complementing them, the white roses breathe a soft, classic elegance - each rose's layered petals suggest a gentle powdery scent and a silky touch. The Peruvian lilies thread through the arrangement, their trumpet-shaped petals mottled with darker flecks, adding depth and a subtle, wild-flower character. Dark, glossy foliage - a mix of broader leaves and narrow, blade-like sprigs - gives the bouquet its full, rounded form and creates small pockets of shadow that make the colours read even richer. A sliver of a clear glass vase is visible at the base, grounding the styling. In the cool, diffused studio light the bouquet feels fresh and modern, perfect for celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, or for sending a reassuring message. As a local florist familiar with Shacklewell's streets and markets - from Shacklewell Lane to nearby Chatsworth Road - we craft arrangements like this for same-day delivery when possible; Florist Shacklewell often recommends it as a bright, heartfelt choice for homes and intimate events across the area.
MESMERIZING HARMONY
£49.00
A festive pregnancy bouquet glows in front of a pure white backdrop, like a pocket of celebration ready to be delivered along the streets between Shacklewell and Dalston. The composition is dominated by striking fuchsia gerbera daisies, their broad, velvety petals radiating out from inky dark centres that anchor the entire design. Between the gerberas, soft pink roses are arranged with care, some still in tight buds that feel full of anticipation, others partially or fully open, letting their layered petals curl outward in delicate spirals. Tiny purple filler flowers, probably statice, are dotted through the arrangement, their papery blossoms lending a gentle wildflower touch and a cooler note of colour that keeps the pink palette lively rather than heavy. Surrounding and threading through the blooms, lush green foliage in different shapes and textures provides a fresh backdrop, giving the bouquet a rounded, domed form and a sense of movement, as if just gathered from a garden near Shacklewell Lane on a bright spring morning. The stems are swaddled in layers of translucent pink tissue and glossy clear wrap, folded and fanned into a generous collar that feels both protective and celebratory, like wrapping paper on a carefully chosen gift. Just in front of the gathered stems sits a round, fuchsia foil balloon with a scalloped edge, sprinkled with pure white polka dots. In flowing white script, the message "Mum to Be!" is written clearly, with a charming double-heart motif - a small pink heart inside a white outline - tucked between the words. The image radiates warmth, joy, and expectation, ideal for marking a baby shower, gender-neutral celebration, or first-trimester announcement for families around Shacklewell.
MUM TO BE
£60.00
Presented like a quiet promise on a white surface, this hand-tied bouquet celebrates white and green with a restrained, uplifting charm familiar to Shacklewell mornings. At the heart are clusters of pristine, daisy-shaped chrysanthemums whose numerous slender petals radiate outward from pale yellow centres, providing a soft, reliable cheerfulness. Rising above and between the chrysanthemums are several unopened lily buds - elongated, green-tinged and subtly striped - their poised forms suggesting patience and unfolding hope. Scattered throughout, clouds of gypsophila (baby's breath) add a lacy, fine-grained texture that cushions the larger blooms and breathes a sense of lightness into the composition. Rich, dark-green foliage frames the flowers, offering contrast and a natural, living depth that anchors the bouquet. The flowers are gathered in an inner layer of rustic, crinkled brown kraft paper that feels warm and earthy to the touch, while an outer layer of clear cellophane preserves the stems and gives a gentle sheen; the wrapping is carefully gathered and tied at the base, creating a tidy, portable bouquet ready to be handed across a garden gate or delivered along Shacklewell Lane. Under soft daylight the scent is mild and grassy, a clean green note rather than a heady perfume. This arrangement carries a sense of purity and thoughtful restraint - appropriate for birthdays, new home congratulations, quiet sympathy, or simply a spontaneous gesture to brighten a neighbour's day. The composition and textures show the kind of attention a seasoned local florist gives when preparing flowers for streets around Kingsland Road and nearby parks.
PURE ELEGANCE
£65.00
A lush, rounded bouquet in a white cube-shaped box sits against a clean white backdrop, its colours radiating outward like a small celebration ready to be sent across Shacklewell. The arrangement is densely composed, with no gaps between blossoms, creating the impression of abundance and care. Dominant sunny-yellow chrysanthemums, their petals fine and feathery, form soft, cushion-like heads that catch the light and draw the eye to the centre. Nestled among them are sprays of yellow roses at various stages of opening, from tight buds with gently pointed tips to slightly opened blooms with layered, velvety petals, evoking the promise of new beginnings. Interspersed throughout are vivid white daisy-style chrysanthemums with bright green centres; their simple, circular faces introduce a refreshing clarity, like a breath of fresh air drifting in from nearby Hackney Downs. Larger white chrysanthemums, fuller and fluffier, create a subtle interplay of textures, their petals overlapping like delicate ruffles. Adding drama and richness, clusters of fuchsia and magenta chrysanthemums curve through the design, some with softer pink tones, adding an almost painterly quality, as if brushstrokes of colour had been swept across the bouquet. The base and inner sections are laced with glossy dark green foliage, probably ruscus or similar hardy leaves, whose smooth surfaces and rich tone frame the flowers and highlight their brightness. The crisp, square white box that holds the arrangement enhances its modern aesthetic, making it suitable as a chic table centrepiece or a thoughtful "thinking of you" gift, perfect for same-day delivery around Shacklewell, Stoke Newington, and the surrounding streets. The overall mood of the image is cheerful, polished, and warmly uplifting.
SPARKLING EYES
£50.00
A lush hand-crafted bouquet of chrysanthemums fills the frame, set cleanly against a crisp white backdrop so that every nuance of green and ivory stands out. The arrangement has a softly rounded silhouette, created by layers of fully opened chrysanthemum heads in shades of pure white and gentle cream, each flower with finely cut petals spreading out from a subtle green or yellow-tinged centre. These larger blossoms give a sense of abundance and softness, like a billowing cloud of petals. Nestled among them are sprays of petite daisy-like chrysanthemums, their smaller white faces adding a delicate rhythm and a feeling of movement through the bouquet. Punctuating the white tones are bold lime-green pompon chrysanthemums, perfectly round and tightly textured, which add a playful yet elegant contrast and a distinctly modern feel. Rich green foliage is threaded through the blooms, not overpowering but clearly visible, adding depth, natural structure, and a hint of the garden. All the stems are neatly aligned and hand-tied, gathered firmly at the base with a bright lime-green satin ribbon, fashioned into a carefully shaped bow whose sheen catches the light. The bouquet radiates a calm, hopeful energy, making it an ideal floral gift for congratulating a new homeowner off Shacklewell Lane, sending sympathy to a family near Kingsland Road, or bringing a refreshing touch of nature into a studio overlooking Dalston. It feels like a thoughtful, versatile design created by an experienced Shacklewell florist who understands how locals like their flowers to express quiet care and new beginnings.
