Bloom Up Your Business – How To Dress Up A Shop Front

The perfect way to create a buzz around your business is to make a statement. We’re more than sure you’ve noticed the rise in floral displays at restaurants and shops over the past year. We’re also positive this is more than just a phase or trend, as let’s be honest how can pretty flowers beautifying doorways become boring. So if you’re looking for a way to create a disruptive PR and Social Media campaign, an exterior floral display is the way to go.

Over the past year we’ve been lucky enough to work with some fantastic businesses to help elevate their exterior, or interior, with our beautiful floral designs. Our latest project was at Bar Elba in Waterloo – a rooftop bar perfect for afterwork drinks (and Instagram snaps). We also worked on The Stag Pub in Mentmore. They wanted to spruce up their entranceway with some colour and opted for our beautiful wisteria which we draped lovingly over their classic doorway. This is just a small way that we think makes a huge difference, look for yourself (picture below).

Our flowers have also been used to help decorate numerous bridal dress stores to sit alongside their bridal attire and really set the scene. So how can you use blooms to brighten up your business? If you have a customer facing shop, you can pick from a large variety of our luxury faux flowers, wisteria, or garlands and use them to decorate your shop window and accentuate your products. Or, if you want to vamp up the interior of your restaurant, café or bar, you can try a flower wall (perfect for Instagram shots) or a faux flower arch for your doorway.
