Our Decoupage Ducks are back… and just look at these beauties that were created at our last workshop 😍🦆✨

Every duck turns out completely different, and that’s honestly one of the best parts of this class. We’ll have a gorgeous selection of papers, paints and finishing touches for you to create your own unique piece for your home or garden.

People often see the cosy side of Honeybee Cottage…

The workshops.
The sound baths.
The plants, yarn, candles and gifts.
The calm atmosphere.
The creativity.

What people don’t always see is everything underneath that keeps a small independent business afloat.

The cleaning.
The lifting.
The ordering.
The learning.
The admin.
The planning.
The social media.
The problem solving.
The constant adapting and evolving.

Because Honeybee Cottage is never just one thing.
It’s retail, creativity, wellbeing, teaching, community and a whole lot of heart all woven together.

And the beautiful thing is this:

Every plant or ball of yarn purchased, every class booked, every treatment, every shared post and recommendation helps make all of this possible. 🤍

So thank you — genuinely — for supporting a small independent business and helping Honeybee Cottage continue to grow.

A customer sent us these absolutely beautiful photos of plants they bought from us last year, and honestly… this is exactly why we love what we do 🌿🌸

Seeing the plants thriving in your gardens, pots and hanging baskets long after they’ve left the shop is such a lovely feeling. The colours, the combinations, the creativity… stunning 😍

We especially love seeing how everyone puts their own spin on things — from bright begonias overflowing from baskets to quirky planters packed with colour. Thank you so much for sharing these with us 💚

We had a fabulous time at Saturday’s Dried Flower Wreath Workshop, and I’m sure you’ll agree the creations were absolutely stunning 🍂✨ Everyone’s wreath turned out so beautifully, each one completely unique.

If you love the look of dried florals, I’ve also got a brand new Harvest Wreath Workshop planned for 8th August, where we’ll be working with gorgeous autumn-toned dried flowers to create rich, seasonal wreaths perfect for the months ahead.

Booking is now open via the website 🍁

We’ve got two cracking workshops for you this Saturday!

At 11am, we’ll be making Crystal Sun Catchers. So many people have asked about the sun catchers we sell in the shop and how they’re made — well, now’s your chance to have a go yourself! We’ll be using gorgeous crystal beads and prisms to create stunning pieces you’ll be proud to hang in your window.

Then at 2pm, we have another run of our Cyanotype Printing workshop, which is a fantastic class for this time of year with all the leaves and flowers around to make beautiful botanical prints.

As always, bookings can be made online via our website or in the shop.

Spaces are very limited for both classes, so don’t hang about if you’d like to come along.

Thank you to everyone who checked in on me after yesterday’s post 💛 Please don’t worry, I'm good — the reason I shared was because I think it’s important that we normalise the fact that all of us have difficult moments, no matter how capable, successful or “together” we might appear on the outside.

Years ago, during a particularly difficult chapter of my life, I made this sign and placed it beside the chair where I sat every day as a reminder:

“That I’m enough as I am.”

I kept it because I realised something important during that time. Strength isn’t about never struggling. Confidence isn’t about never doubting yourself. Empowerment isn’t about pretending you have it all figured out.

It’s about recognising those difficult moments when they come, understanding that they are part of being human, and continuing forward anyway.

I think so many people quietly carry the belief that they should always cope perfectly, always feel strong, always have the answers. Real life doesn’t work like that.

Sometimes we wobble.
Sometimes old feelings resurface.
Sometimes we need reminded of our own worth.

And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that 💛

In many ways, that’s exactly what my upcoming Empowerment Workshop is about — not becoming someone different, but reconnecting with the strength and resilience that already exists within you.

Some mornings feel heavier than others.

Today is one of those days for me.
The kind where the pace slows down and suddenly your brain decides to throw every intrusive thought it can find into the middle of the room.

So today looked like:
• mucking out the horse
• taking Jess for a short walk
• a cup of tea
• talking things through with Paul
• reminding myself that “I’m not good enough” is a thought — not a fact

It didn’t magically fix everything, but it helped a bit.
And sometimes that’s where you start.

I think sometimes we imagine coping should look polished, productive, or inspirational. But sometimes coping just looks like small grounding things that help you move through the day without disappearing into your own head.

It’s okay to struggle sometimes.
It’s okay to need slower days.
It’s okay if your nervous system occasionally asks you to stop and breathe for a minute.

You are still worthy on the days that feel harder. 🤍

Good morning lovely people! We have a beautiful selection of plants for you in the garden this week — probably more than we’ve ever had!

We have packs of just about every bedding plant you can think of, along with individual basket and container plants, gorgeous colour-coordinated mixed basket packs ready to make planting easy, and a lovely selection of ready-filled hanging baskets too.

We also have 1L and 2L bedding plants for anyone looking for instant colour. Alongside that, you’ll find a huge range of perennials and shrubs, and last but certainly not least, a fabulous selection of herbs and vegetable plants to get you growing this season.

Remember, we offer free daily delivery to the Three Towns with a £10 spend, and this year we’re extending that on certain days to West Kilbride and Kilwinning on spends over £20.

All of our plants come from quality growers and are carefully looked after in our garden. 🌿

You’ll find us at 12 Hamilton Street, Saltcoats — just a few doors up from the Kandy Bar.
