A step away from my signature half-moon wreaths, this handmade dried flower wreath celebrates the best stems from this summer’s harvest. Each wreath is carefully woven by hand, bringing together a beautiful mix of natural textures, delicate seed heads and seasonal botanicals to create a balanced, sculptural piece for your wall.
You can choose a colour palette to complement your space, from soft, understated neutrals to richer, deeper tones. Simply leave a note with your preference when ordering, and I’ll create a unique dried flower wreath that feels personal to you and your home.
As with all my work at Botanical Tales, every material is natural and compostable, with sustainability at the heart of the design. Made using carefully selected botanical materials, this natural wreath offers a considered alternative to mass-produced decorations and is designed to return to the earth at the end of its life.
Each wreath measures approximately 40–45cm in diameter. To help preserve its colour and delicate textures, display your wreath indoors, away from direct sunlight and damp. With the right care, this everlasting floral decoration can be enjoyed for seasons to come.

My signature crescent dried flower wreaths are available to order once more, each one individually created by hand in my Devon studio.
Made to order using the finest of the season’s dried botanicals, every wreath is a little different. If you have a particular colour palette in mind, simply leave me a note when ordering and I’ll tailor the flowers and foliage to suit your space. Or, if you’re happy to leave the choice to me, I’ll draw inspiration from the ever-changing bounty hanging from my studio ceiling and create something entirely from my imagination.
Each wreath begins with a natural vine base, shaped into my signature crescent moon design. Airy foliage, ethereal dried flowers and sculptural seed heads are arranged to create an asymmetrical composition, with a sense of movement and a beautifully organic feel. A natural dried flower wall decoration, designed to bring the outside in, soften a room and breathe life into those darker corners.
Made from natural botanical materials, these everlasting wreaths can be enjoyed for months and even years with the right care. Display yours in a cool, dry indoor space, away from direct sunlight and damp. Some gentle fading over time is to be expected, and to me, this is part of the beauty of dried flowers as they continue to evolve.
Each wreath measures approximately 40–45cm across at its widest point.
Please note that any ribbons shown in photographs are not included in the price, but can be purchased separately.
As each wreath is handmade to order, please allow up to two weeks for dispatch. If you need yours sooner, do get in touch and I’ll do my best to accommodate.
