It was around this time last year whilst researching a blog on Christmas wreaths that I first came across the work of the amazingly talented florist and stylist Cassandra King. Ever since then I’ve followed her work on her instagram account @cassandrakingflowersandstyling and this year I’m so pleased to tell you that Cassandra has agreed to give away one of her lovely wreaths here on the Create Perfect blog. Read on to find out more and enter our giveaway.

Cassandra’s work is so imaginative and like nothing you’ll see anywhere else. After studying floristry in 2015 Cassandra used her experience from her previous successful career in photography, film and television to inspire her vision of the unique and extraordinary floral displays she creates in her styling of weddings, events and photo shoots.

Working on projects across fashion and interiors in which all have showcase her signature style of blending elegant florals, bold colours with a dash of whimsy and a touch of fairy-tale beauty.
Everlasting faux florals by Immortal Botanica
As well as beautiful real flower arrangements Cassandra also works with faux floral. I have seen the faux floral trend grow and grow over the past year and we are increasingly using them in our projects but these beauties really sold it to me. It really is hard to believe that they aren't actually real. With such a variety of different flowers, styled into such lovely bouquets.
In the image above Cassandra has worked with another brand we love Rockett St George styling their beautiful tableware alongside some striking faux floral displays.
Everlasting floral bouquets which are seasonally themed in dramatic designs all which look unbelievably real will be available to buy at the online store Immortal Botanica which is due to launch any day now.
However what we really want to share with you is how you can get some of this show-stopping professional floral styling in your home this Christmas with a beautifully designed Christmas wreath. Check out these gorgeous designs and scroll down to enter our competition.
Prancer Wreath by Immortal Botanica - 50cm Diameter - £45
Traditionally Christmas wreaths are made from evergreen leaves to symbolise life in the midst of the deep, dark mid-winter. The circular shape represents eternity as well as the unending circle of life. These everlasting wreaths follow those basic design principles but the use of a mixture of natural elements such as twigs and pine cones combined with fruit, flowers and even birds' feathers in a rich Christmas colour palette which really makes these wreaths stand out.
