This talented artisan has also been busy developing new skills to bring you stunning, handmade paper flowers. Botanically realistic, these beautiful blooms must be seen to be believed. A sustainable alternative to fresh-flower bouquets, they allow you to include any bloom in any colour, all year round. Plus, incredibly made from nothing more than paper, wire and a dab of glue they’ll last forever. Paired with stunning wedding stationery, what this all means is that with Dragonfly you can choose a package of paper goods that all work together to bring your floral wedding theme to life. www.sjpp hotographs.com www.nico lastewartphotography.com https://sam sparksweddings.co.uk http://nat alyjphotography.com www.sjpp hotographs.com LOCALLY HANDMADE 43
