We had the pleasure of bringing Maggie to life at the very first Great Garden Show at The Newt in Somerset

Maggie was created in homage to Margaret Hobhouse, whose vision helped shape the gardens into the extraordinary place they are today.

Throughout the day, visitors helped bring Maggie to life with beautiful flowers from the estate, before she joined @selwood_bounds, @boss.morris and the @sohosaintsbrassband ( an absolute joy to create magic alongside ) for a jolly rumble-o through the gardens, celebrating the turning of the season and the arrival of summer. 

Brilliant to see so many visitors getting stuck into giant making and becoming part of Maggie’s story.

Huge thanks to everyone at The Newt for having us and for making us feel so welcome and inviting us to work in such beautiful surroundings.
