Happy Friday! I hope you’ve had a good week?

From the mildest start to Autumn, we’ve now had a full assault of winter - proper take-your-breath-away freezing. It largely makes me want to hibernate but also does feel very festive!

I’ve been reminiscing this week of our launch event of The Seedling - exactly three years ago this week we celebrated the start of a platform inspired to give little Seedlings of ideas on how to create, inspire and nurture. We gathered friends together at the beautiful Ham Court in Oxfordshire and feasted with supper under candlelight. How quickly it’s flown and how I’ve loved building this community of like-minded flower, fashion and wellness loving friends. Without you, we would not be sharing Seedlings of ideas each week so the biggest thanks to you all. I’ll be introducing the chat function soon and hope we can get some discussions within the community on everything from seeds to vases, flowers to skincare to health and holidays! To celebrate three years, I’m offering a 30% discount off annual memberships this weekend, so if you’ve been wondering what goes on with The Seedling on Substack or want to gift a subscription to a friend, now is the time!

Christmas Day is five weeks today! Yikes. Our Christmas edition is out just in time for December (and not toooo soon as I really can’t properly get in the spirit until it’s time!!) and I can’t wait to share it with you! It will be available to purchase on my website and complementary with shop orders over £100.

A sneak peak of our print edition, out any day now…

Our Christmas tabletop collections (Botanica & Stripes) are live on my website and there’s botanical prints, striped tea light lamps and linens and so much more - I hope you love it as much as me!

Our festive tabletop collection!

And if you’re looking to get creative with decking your halls, my 3 in 1 Christmas Decorating tutorials are online now (how to create a wreath, garland & decorate the table for the festive season) to have now and for many Christmases to come!

In this week’s dispatch - a magical discount code for my favourite earrings, decking the halls inspiration, appreciation for the amazing amaryllis, my round of favourite woolly hats to get us through winter, and more…

Wishing you a very happy weekend.

Lots of love,

Willow

Magical Mushroom Discount

Disco Mushrooms and me in my regular mushrooms

I keep being stopped by people wanting to know where my sparkly mushroom earrings are from. They are so life enhancing. I messaged the lovely Sophie Liss who makes them to tell her and she’s offered us a code in case you’d like to buy (yourself) an early Christmas present…
