We all love a ginormous bunch of blooms, but there’s also something to be said for appreciating nature on a smaller scale.

Gathered from the garden, or plucked from a larger bouquet, a simple seasonal flower popped in a dainty glass vase is an easy way to add a little cheer to a bedside table, or brighten a mantelpiece – especially when it’s bathed in that glorious golden-hour light. ‘Bringing the outside in’ might have become a bit of a buzz phrase, but it doesn’t have to mean dramatic home renovations. Singled out, one delicate stem can provide a tiny reminder that even the most urban of spaces can be a mini scene of uncomplicated beauty.
