WATTLE& LOOP | CHERRY BLOSSOM Slow Stitch Embroidery Kit

Wattle & Loop brings you colourful, do-able slow stitch embroidery kits that you will lovingly complete and display. No more 'hope' boxes of embroidery projects sitting gathering dust at the top of your wardrobe.

These kits have everything you need to inspire you to get your needle on and get crafting. Using scissors, glue, needle, and DMC thread together with lovingly curated Liberty of London print fabric remnants and exquisite linens, the designs come to life right before your eyes. Better still, the designs are contemporary and totally framable. You'll feel a great sense of satisfaction hanging them around your house or, perhaps, your new creative studio as your own ideas begin to unfurl.

The crimson fig is this kit's celebrity. Designer Kylie Wright brings the luscious fruit to life so much so that Yotham Ottolenghi could surely use it for his next book cover. Watch the video and see how easy it is to create your own delightful art.

Let's face it a trip it's a long way to Kew Gardens or the Chelsea Garden Show.  Happily, this brand new watering can design from the Royal Horticultural Society's RHS Gifts for Gardeners range helps fill the void for lovers of a traditional English aesthetic.

The new ‘Asteraceae’ design showcases blooms from the daisy family. These resilient flowers have a starring role to play in our gardens as summers last longer and autumns become warmer. They keep the colour going in a longer season, and also offer an important source of forage for pollinators when other flowers fade.

The elegant new design has been created by Burgon & Ball featuring illustrations dating illustrations dating from circa 1810, specially selected from the RHS Lindley Collections of historic botanical art. A soft sage green background is the perfect foil for the jewel-bright colours of the China aster and coreopsis.

It’s so gorgeous it could easily double as a statement vase for a small flower arrangement, but this piece has practical credentials, too. All-steel construction makes it durable but lightweight, while the elegant spout facilitates on-target watering — less spillage, less water waste. 

Even if your plot, balcony or window box will never rival Sissinghurst Castle Garden, don’t fret. There's plenty of inspiration this spring with Open Gardens Australia's season calendar. If you're not planning to stick to your home garden, escape to the Kew Gardens site and explore the world of plants and fungi from your sofa. (Gin and tonic optional.)

And if handling this watering can fosters a love of botanical illustration, why not give it a try? There's inspiration everywhere. You can find more about the history and process of this gentle artform here. The Australian National Botanic Garden maintains an amazing online library of our own native plants rendered in art.
