Beautiful floral finds at the Laura Ashley Autumn/Winter 2012 Press Show

I hope you had a lovely weekend… If you read my Flowerona reflects blog post on Saturday, you’ll know that I went to the Laura Ashley Autumn/Winter 2012 Press Show last week.

Today’s blog post is a special preview of some of the beautiful floral finds I discovered there, starting off with images of the lovely flower cart which welcomed visitors at the entrance.

Camomile yellow hydrangeas featured heavily and adorned mugs, teapots, storage boxes, placemats, tea towels and cushions.

My favourite finds were the very cute floral doorstop and hydrangea embroidered cushions below…

I also loved their ‘Heaven Scent’ collection which included rose-covered pillow cases, cushions, armchairs, upholstery fabric and duvet covers.

And the vintage-style rose theme continued with pretty box files, coat hangers and storage boxes…

Last but not least, I spotted these beautiful floral accessories for little girls.

At the Press Show, it was lovely to meet Angel Adoree, below, who runs Vintage Patisserie. You may recognise Angel from her appearance on the TV show Dragon’s Den.

Angel and her glamorous team were serving delicious berry smoothies, old-fashion lemonade and English tea to all the visitors.

I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing a preview of Laura Ashley’s products today, which will be in stores and online later this year.

Let me know if you have some favourites too…
