Hi I'm Amanda

Mum of two boys and a cat, I live in Nottingham next to a beautiful park. I'm an origami enthusiast, nature lover, gardener, wild swimmer, rainbow seeker... I find inspiration all around me!

Welcome and thank you for being here

Proud to be an eco friendly and vegan family business

I aim to be environmentally friendly in all aspects of life and that includes Origami Blooms.

Way back in 2015, as I learned all about the fresh flower industry and its water consumption, the impact it has on land and the huge carbon footprint of flower imports/exports, I began to believe I could give a brilliant alternative for eco-conscious flower lovers.

I developed Origami Blooms as a business from my love of creating origami flowers, my passion to help conservation of our environment and the big benefits that paper flowers are both beautiful and super long-lasting. I feel this is especially important in the wedding sector as so many real flowers are used for just one day.

I give you wedding flowers with the WOW factor which will become beloved keepsakes of your day, holding your special memories forever.

I make all your blooms from 100% recycled paper and all other paper is FSC-certified sustainable. Your flowers are carefully wrapped in tissue paper and packed in very sturdy cardboard boxes. I often send orders wrapped in bubble wrap that we have received at our family home.. I encourage you to reuse and/or recycle any packaging I send to you too!

In 2021 Origami Blooms joined Ecologi. It is a subscription service which offsets carbon emissions and plants trees around the world as a way to improve the environment. You can see the impact we've had so far here: Ecologi

Also in 2021 our family became vegan.

Best decision we've ever made! 💚
