Small packages

Are most definitely the best packages!


If you are a regular reader of Moss & Vine, firstly thanks, secondly you'll know I've been lusting after the beautiful velvet ring boxes from The Mrs Box for quite some time. You will also know from this post that it was my birthday last month. Some girls drop hints to their men about jewellery. I dropped hints about the vessel jewellery is traditionally presented in. 

I didn't want a ring. 
I wanted a ring box. 

A velvet ring box made from French velvet estimated to be between 40 and 100 years old, just to be precise. He's a switched on man, this man of mine. Actually, I wasn't overly subtle about my desired birthday present. He'd need to be really quite dim not to have grasped my hints outright requests for my very own Mrs Box.

I think it must be the most beautifully tactile object I own. I can't stop looking at it, turning it over in my hands. It is stunning.


If you're getting married, you should put your wedding bands in a Mrs Box for the wedding ceremony.


If you're planning to propose, you should do it with a Mrs Box.


If you already have a cherished ring, you should have a Mrs Box to put it in when it's not on your finger.


Shout out to The Mrs Box for dreaming up and producing such an exquisite thing!

Bows and pearl pins

You are not a florist unless you have a large stash of ribbons and pearl pins. 


Ribbons are fundamental to floristry.


I have just spent some time organising my own ribbon station. Colour coded, of course.


Cream, pale blue, lavender and twine, these colours are must haves. 
But you never know when a bride is going to ask for neon orange and sky blue. Together.


Some weddings are all about colour!


My current ribbon crush is this ebony + ivory striped ribbon.
It's a classic look.


I am also lusting over the stunningly beautiful plant dyed silk ribbon from

Ebony + ivory

Friday evening wedding inspiration coming at you! I had a play around with some velvety deep lipstick pink ranunculus and some chincherinchees this afternoon. Chincherinchees is an impossibly fun word to say. CHIN- CHER- IN- CHEES. Try it.


I am rather in love with this dapper striped ribbon.
Ebony and ivory is a classy, timeless look.
