It’s been exactly one calendar month since I last posted on social media... I’m still here! Where has that month gone?? Well, I have been in my studio up to my neck in paper cuttings. You guys have been keeping me super super busy and I just want to say how thankful I am to each and every one of you for your orders and support. Without you I wouldn’t be able to do what I love xx #thankful #ihavethebestcustomers #nothingwithoutyou #handmadeflower #peony #paperblooms #giftinspo #papernotpicked #paperpeony #alanaphoenixandco https://www.instagram.com/p/ByhPzJaFB6G/?igshid=qmnzaiu5y1z1

AP peonies have 144 hand cut petals, 96 of those are painted by hand. It’s the only flower that requires me to attach a bench vice to my work space, need more hands. A labour of love for sure as they take so long to make but it’s worth it. A definite statement stem. Love them. #peonybloom #paperpeony #statementpiece #labouroflove #lovemyjob #peony #peonies #madefrompaper #notreal #fauxflowers #madebyhand #alanaphoenixandco https://www.instagram.com/p/B3taOIAFSvO/?igshid=1lr4zlbyg3qvk

Good morning and Happy New Year to you all! I hope you’re all feeling well rested after the festive break. We were lucky enough to get away for a break by the sea after Christmas so have managed to pause and reset after a hectic 2018. Super excited to see what 2019 has in store for us. We’re feeling recharged and ready for the crazy Valentines period just around the corner #paperpeony #peonyflower #valentines #alternativeflowers #alanaphoenixandco https://www.instagram.com/p/BsUwqwMlxR3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1755g6bo3kboe
