Dot & Flora

Dot & Flora is a specialist floral studio dedicated exclusively to the beauty of dried and preserved flowers, based in Manchester, UK.I'm Steph - the main lady behind the flowers! I started the business in 2022 after working as a creative in the retail industry for over a decade. I have always had a huge passion for crafting and working with my hands, and after deciding I wanted to venture into something new, I started to explore floristry. Suddenly things clicked and the business grew from there!I started making and selling products at markets, online and in stores across the North West, but since welcoming my baby in 2024, my creative journey has taken a beautiful turn. My time is now focused on hosting workshops and designing wedding flowers for lovely couples.I launched my workshops to bring people together, foster connection, and share the mindful art of dried floristry. Dried flowers bring a timeless elegance that lasts for years, and I love helping others slow down, get creative, and make something beautiful to keep.Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned crafter, my workshops are relaxed, welcoming, and designed to inspire. I keep the spaces limited so that I am able to spend time with each of you, helping bring out your creativity to make something that captures your personality.
