Custom orders

Tell us what you have in mind.

There are five short steps and you can skip any of them. The only thing we genuinely need is a way to reply.

Step 1 of 5, The occasion. What is the occasion?

The occasion

Not one of these? Choose Something else and tell us in your own words.

Worth knowing

Here is what we can and cannot make.

Saying no quickly is part of the service. If a custom order is not the right answer, we will tell you before you have spent anything.

Yes

  1. We can match a colour

    You might want us to match a dress, a room or a wedding palette. Send us a photograph and we'll pick the closest match we can get from the shades the material comes in.

  2. We can change the size and shape

    We'll make anything from a single stem to an arrangement built for a table. Larger pieces take longer and cost more, and we'll tell you both before we start.

  3. We can make particular flowers

    We make daisies, roses, tulips, lavender and several others. If you want something we haven't made before, just ask. Sometimes we say no, and we say it quickly.

  4. We can build it around one occasion

    We make bouquets for a proposal, a bridal party, a milestone birthday, or a gift that has to carry a particular meaning.

No

  1. We can't copy a photograph exactly

    Handmade work gets close, but it's never identical. We'll make something that feels like that day, and if you need an exact match we'll tell you so rather than take the order.

  2. We can't copy another maker's design

    You're welcome to show us a reference for the feeling you want, but not for the piece itself. We don't copy other makers' work.

  3. We can't do same-day work

    We make every custom piece from scratch. If your date is tight, we'll point you at the collection instead, which is usually the better answer as well as the faster one.

What happens next

Nothing starts until you agree.

  1. 01

    You send the idea

    Send a photograph, a colour, an occasion, or just a description. Nothing formal, and it is fine if you describe it badly.

  2. 02

    You get an honest answer

    We tell you whether we can make it, roughly what it would cost, and how long it would take. Sometimes the answer is no.

  3. 03

    A deposit starts it

    Only once you have agreed the price and the date. Nothing is made and nothing is charged before that.

  4. 04

    It is made and delivered

    We send you a photograph of the finished piece before it leaves the studio.

Questions

The things worth knowing before you order.

Most collection pieces take three to five days to make, with delivery in Colombo adding a day. The product page shows the lead time for that particular piece, and we confirm the timing with you before anything begins.
