A Christmas Q&A...
A Christmas Q&A...
Creating beautiful, bespoke floral installations and botanical art, Arie & Vine, created in 2020 by florist Jade Schol, caught our eyes and captured our hearts immediately when we discovered their stunning designs. Self-taught and holding a huge love for neutral tones and textures, Jade is behind the brand’s most breathtaking creations, and with Christmas now just around the corner, we couldn’t pass on the opportunity to ask her for a few wreath-making tipsand learn more about how she got started on offering her forever flowers!
H&I: Tell us more about constructing such intricate pieces – what are your top tips for festive wreaths?
Jade: My top tip for festive wreaths is to be free! There is no right or wrong way to go about it, so be as creative and wild as you can, and be sure to go out and forage as there is so much nature has to offer at this time of year. My number one tip is simply to enjoy and trust the process. Don’t over think it, just be in the moment and create!
H&I: Is there a particular design that you’re most proud of? If so, why?
Jade: Oh my goodness, my favourite design... I think it might be my mantlepiece creations, through the seasons, from spring, summer, autumn and winter. I do feel proud of these creations as the planning process takes me a while, to really think of something totally bespoke and a little bit crazy, because in my eyes... the crazier the better. I always feel so happy with how they turn out, the textures, the colours... all of it! Plus, because they're in my home, my children get to see the designs and are always mesmerised by the flowers which really makes me so happy. I am super excited to create this year's Christmas mantle... Coming soon!
H&I: Thank you so much for taking the time to sit down with us – we can’t wait to see what you do next!
