Astilbe And Rose Ltd

I’m Kayleigh, co-founder of Pampas Tallo, a dried flower studio I run with my wife, Katy. We work side by side, combining our strengths and shared love for floristry to create pieces that feel thoughtful, balanced and designed to last.My journey into floristry began with a genuine love for flowers and styling, but it really took shape after our wedding, where I fell in love with my own flowers and the way they became part of such a meaningful moment. That experience sparked a deeper curiosity around how flowers could be used differently within the home, not just for a day, but for much longer. I was drawn to dried flowers for their texture, tone and longevity, and quickly became passionate about creating arrangements that feel calm, considered and part of a space rather than something temporary. What started as a creative passion naturally grew into Pampas Tallo and a full-time business.I love teaching because it allows me to share that process with others. Dried flowers can feel unfamiliar at first, but once you understand how to work with balance, colour and shape, they become incredibly approachable. Seeing people gain confidence and create something they genuinely love is the most rewarding part of hosting workshops.Through Pampas Tallo, we’ve created thousands of dried flower arrangements and built a community around intentional, design-led florals. Our workshops are relaxed, welcoming and beginner-friendly, with a focus on enjoying the process, learning practical techniques, and leaving with something beautiful that lasts. Our studio is a home away from home and we want everyone who walks through our doors to feel welcome.
