Is it possible to miss something, but be eternally grateful not to have it at the same time?

I'm sat with mum, who spends the majority of her day sleeping, radio 3 plays in the background, it's a peaceful time, but one that is an emotional rollercoaster of tiny ups, downs, lows and lowers! She's not giving in, using every ounce of her determination to stay here.... a red head to the end.

I could not imagine running the shop at this time, the gratitude I have not to be worrying about it is huge, but equally I miss the structure that it gave me, peeps popping in for a catch up, the forward planning and organising.... having a focus at a time where nothing is "normal"

It's bloody hard being a problem solver and control freak when everything is out of your control and there is no solving to do, just wondering and waiting ......

Botanique has been my absolute privilege and joy, it allowed me to realise my childhood dream....
...and that's something I'll always be grateful for, but it's now that I hand the baton over.

The book has the same title, Botanique, chapters 1-8 have been written, and it's now time for someone new to start creating their Botanique chapters!

And I'm pleased to say, writing these new chapters will be Will, from The Flower Stand!

It's history repeating itself, market to Wyle Cop, and I'm sure Will will carry on where I left off, hold the same customer values, create some magical windows, learn to faff with pots and, of course, stock beautiful flowers and plants!

I know he's looking forward to more space, and dreaming of creating classically beautiful weddings!

So there you go, or rather, off I go to write my next chapter, once I can find a notebook and pen!!

I will keep this page, the name has been changed already, but please show Will some love, and read his chapters The Flower Stand Give him a follow to tune into his news, when he'll be open etc.

And I'll pop in as a customer the next time I need some flowers!

Did I ever expect to be called "the most beautiful shop in Shrewsbury"

Absolutely not, not in my wildest dream's - I was happy with being me, selling the things I loved in the market hall, whilst having access to the best breakfasts, coffee and pizza!

Little did I know then that a 'to let' sign above a shop would ignite a flame within me, to create a lifestyle botanical shop, that was earthy, honest and authentic.

Creating and curating became my passion, and as my confidence grew I'd push the boundaries a little more!

And as I pushed the boundaries a remarkable thing happened, I started to meet all of you, I started to build my community of like minded, fun, kind, chatty, thoughtful people who loved the life they were living.

And that community is what I'm most proud of, the trust built, the secrets shared, the laughter, the tears, the I knew I could rely on you... it's the best reward for doing something you love.... and I'm so grateful to have had Botanique for the time I did.

You all know the deal of why I had to close.... but do you know there is a next chapter.... to be revealed.....

You know when you're in a 20mph zone and you really have to concentrate to not get a ticket....
... that's where I'm at!

I knew not having Botanique was going to be tough, going from making decisions every day, having structure and purpose, and company all day long to suddenly all these things disappearing.

That's why I planned it, close shop, week off, operation the following week....
..but my plan was scuppered when my op was cancelled and rescheduled for mid August.

So now I have limbo time, and that's a challenge to a brain trained to go at 80mph..... that keeps trying to plan autumn deliveries & windows! Something inspires me and my first thought is how can I use that?!

Missing the community I built, the little chats and giggles, the questions of why is my plant not happy, what shall I do with this shelf, being part of something that was more than a shop.

It was me, my happy place, and, just for the moment, it feels like a little bit is missing, but I have the piece, and the glue, I just require a little concentration to be able to make the repair!

In fact, bit of repair work starts next week, I'm off to Cornwall for a few days, sea air, good food, and sunshine.....is 40mph acceptable?!?

Part two (filmed the same hot day as part one!)

Tomorrow our sale starts, with the majority of stock half price.

And once it's gone, it's gone, it's a genuine sale for a genuine reason.

Come and treat yourself to something lovely one last time.

Thank you for all your kind, beautiful messages last night, they really touched me 🫶🏻. I have the most amazing community, I have read every message and will reply to them all over the coming days. You are all gorgeous 😘

Part one: Some news 💚

If you're watching today's video, you'll now know that Botanique will be closing its doors.

This is a post I never imagined I'd be writing, and a life change I certainly didn't ask for.

Over the coming months, I need to focus on my health and recovery following abdominal surgery, and I also want to spend some precious time with my mum, who is very poorly and nearing the end of her life. Moments like these have a way of making you stop, reflect, and re-evaluate what really matters.

I'm not sharing this for sympathy, but simply because you deserve to know the truth behind the decision.

To say I'm sad is an understatement. Botanique has been such a happy time in my life, and so many of you tell me it's your favourite shop in Shrewsbury. What I'll miss most isn't the shop itself - it's you. The chats, the laughter, the stories, the friendships and seeing your faces walk through the door each day.

It's been an absolute privilege to be part of this community.

Despite the stress, tears, and uncertainty behind the scenes, I'm choosing to keep smiling and be grateful for everything Botanique has given me.

And we're not done yet....

Tomorrow I'll be sharing part two, with some exciting news about a very special closing sale and how you can enjoy it all one last time!

In the meantime, please share this post to your stories, tag your friends, and help spread the word so as many people as possible can enjoy Botanique before we close.

(PS. We filmed this on the hottest day of the year, standing outside seemed like a good idea at the time. By the end we were melting!)

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart 💚 Lisa xx

Do faux blooms have to be plastic and garish colours?

Not if you buy them from Botanique!

Our faux blooms are soft, both in texture and colour.

And you'll get all the help you need to create a perfect arrangement. We have lots of lovely earthy, textural vases but if you have a favourite vase at home, bring it with you and we'll help you create something beautiful.

There's a place for faux in your home, you just haven't found the right ones until now 🫶🏻
