About Us

I’m Wendy, the owner and florist behind Twig & Twine. I grew up in North Yorkshire and have been lucky enough to spend my life surrounded by the beautiful countryside that continues to inspire my work.

With over 35 years of floristry experience, creating Twig & Twine in 2019 felt like a natural next step for me. My love of gardening, nature and vintage finds, combined with my floristry training and BA (Hons) Degree in Contemporary Applied Art, has helped me create a business that brings together everything I love.

My style is natural and creative, using flowers and plants from around the world alongside blooms I grow myself and those sourced from wonderful local suppliers here in North Yorkshire.

Away from floristry, you’ll often find me tending to my allotment, enjoying country and coastal walks, beachcombing, taking photographs or visiting furniture auctions. I also love giving old pieces of furniture a new lease of life, often using them to create colourful and unique displays around the shop – and many are available to buy too!

I feel incredibly fortunate to spend my days being creative and doing something I truly enjoy. I look forward to welcoming you to Twig & Twine and sharing a little of that creativity with you.
