Dandelions - Dragonflies & Daydreams

Dandelions - Dragonflies & Daydreams

What is with the dandelions?

Dandelions have been with dispel from day one. They are a symbol of hope, growth, transformation, resilience and healing.

They were one of my favourite flowers growing up.

They are tough with strong roots, are able to bring beauty to the most bleak of places, putting down strong roots with an ability to withstand all the unpredictable seasons of UK weather.

The dandelion clocks when ready send seeds off into wind to create another beautiful bloom that with time will create new strong roots and become a clock and in doing so repeat the cycle, this is echoed in the networking and connecting elements within the dispel ethos.

“Thriving against all odds, with perception being the fragile barrier between a weed or a wish.”

She’s added value to every project we’ve worked on and I would thoroughly recommend working with her if you get the opportunity. You won’t regret it”
