About Oh Em Gee: Aotearoa’s First Felt Florist

Kia ora, kumusta, hello and welcome!

My name is Emily Timoti, nee Gee. I am a wife and mother, and live in the Tauranga, Aotearoa and have been mastering my craft of felt flowers for the last 12 years.

I’ve always loved the way a bouquet can transform a room, but I never liked watching them wilt – and as an allergy sufferer, I certainly didn’t miss the sneezing.

As the founder of Oh Em Gee, I have been pioneering felt floristry in Aotearoa since 2012. I’m on a mission to redefine the floral industry by trading the compost bin for the craft table. From my home studio in Tauranga, I hand-cut and shape sustainable, eco-friendly felt into the bespoke blooms that offer a ‘Fuss-free’ alternative to the traditional but-flower market.

Whether it’s a hypoallergenic gift for a hospital bedside, a vibrant Kōwhai, for a forever home, or a feature in Your Home & Garden, every stem I create is a piece of handcrafted art. I believe you flowers should be as lasting as the memories the celebrate – beautiful, sustainable, and designed to stay vibrant for a  lifetime.
