Thoughtful Sympathy Flowers in Balmain

Handcrafted sympathy flowers for those times when words are not enough. 

When Words are Not Enough

In times of loss, flowers can offer comfort, bring peace, and gently carry a message of care. At The Curious Rabbit Flower Shop, owner Catherine creates handcrafted sympathy arrangements with thought and compassion for families in her community.

Shop Our Sympathy Collection

The Curious Rabbit Flower Shop understands that Sympathy flowers are always a personal choice. All of our flower bouquets and vase arrangements make a thoughtful choice however we are always happy to help you find exactly what you are looking for.  Regardless of your choice you can rest assured that every design is made to order using market-fresh flowers, carefully chosen for their beauty and meaning. White lilies often symbolise peace and the restored innocence of the soul, roses represent love and remembrance while Australian natives honour a love of the bush or a connection to place.

Choosing the Right Flowers

There are no strict rules for sympathy flowers. Many people find comfort in traditional choices: white arrangements for purity and reverence, soft pastels for gentle warmth, or colourful displays to celebrate a vibrant life. Catherine can also create custom arrangements, tailoring the design to reflect your relationship and the personality of the person being honoured. Catherine reflects that it is always a privilege to create thoughtful sympathy flowers and over the years remembers some very personal choices, such as a vase of Sweet Peas and most recently some Daffodils in a watering can that represented some beautiful memories of a dear friend.

"Hi Catherine, I just found the wonderful photo of the flowers and I am so happy they are more than I would wish for and they mean a tremendous amount. Thank you for your expertise but also the power to understand. Have a happy day."

What to Write in a Sympathy Card

  • Thinking of you during this difficult time.
