An Edinburgh florist with a skill for creating unique and colourful displays for her customers has spoken of how she had to battle adversity to get her business back up and running following the 'death of the High Street' in Corstorphine.
Nicola Boyd, from Parkhead, has been in the industry for over two decades and says that she feels very privileged when someone chooses her business to create designs. But it was not all plain sailing for the entrepreneur who was forced to lay off staff and close her shop after issues relating to roadworks and a fall in passing trade hampered her business in 2018.
But the 42-year-old, who has created a variety of impressive floral displays for her clients, from Stone Island badges, to Heart of Midlothian and Hibernian emblems and even a large Volkswagen camper van for a funeral, is now busier than ever after restarting her business over the Covid period.
