At edit58 we love nothing more than adding colour, cheer and beauty to the rooms in our home through plants and flowers. But, we'll be honest...a combination of a busy life, travel and lack of green fingers often results in a sad, wilting scene.
We decided to turn to paper flowers. A way to install long-lasting joy in our home without the added responsibility and work of keeping something (else!) alive. We found brilliant Beam Irwin and her wonderful blooms and we fell in love.
We are therefore thrilled to be working with Beam to bring our three favourite blooms to you - Geranium, Hollyhock, Foxglove - each in a Handpainted Floral Terracotta Pot, exclusive to edit58. This listing is for a Paper Geranium. From the drop down menu choose your desired bloom size (Standard or Large) and select the Terracotta Pot design you would like your bloom to come planted in (there are 5 designs).
Each Bloom by Beam for edit58 is slowly and thoughtfully made; individually hand cut, painted and put together in Beam's craft room in Manchester, UK. They are so realistic - we see them as sculptures to be installed in your home, artworks you will treasure across every season, for life.
These floral wonders bring life to a tired corner of your home, even that tricky spot that doesn't get any sun. Paper flowers can also be used for weddings and events for the most memorable displays. And they make for the most meaningful gifts and reminders of special moments.
We hope you will enjoy your Bloom by Beam for edit58 for many years to come!
Please note: Each Bloom is handmade to order by Beam. Please allow 2-3 weeks from placing your order to receipt of your paper flower, which is shipped direct from Beam. We can assure you, it will be worth the short wait! (If you need your paper flower by a set date, please contact lisa@edit58.com to check if this is achievable before ordering).
The Maker's Story
Beam Irwin is a talented creative entrepreneur specialising in crafting exquisite paper flowers.
These fine handcrafted floral pieces started as a past time for Beam during the pandemic of 2020. Having just immigrated from the Philippines to her new home in UK during this strange time, Beam had only the most basic of craft materials available to her; paper, scissors and glue. Trapped at home with these simple resources at hand she created the paper flowers that would blossom into Blooms by Beam.
