Our Story

Dippety Flowers & Gifts was founded by Stephanie Gain officially in 2017 from her small 117m2 duplex apartment in Lawnton. As a florist then of 7 years, Steph took her love for plants, flowers and the beauty of nature and share them with the world through the creation of woodland, rustic styled flower arrangements, homegrown plants, hand-poured soy candles, and locally-crafted ethical gifts.

Behind The Name

The name “Dippety” came about in Steph’s early childhood. Growing up on a large cattle and Lucerne property in the Lockyer Valley, Stephanie spent endless hours amidst nature with her animals, in the garden, leaping from tree branches and wandering the fields. This upbringing sparked countless projects and hobbies that stemed from nature and wildlife. Whether it was sketching the landscape, arranging wildflowers into displays for the dining room, collecting rocks, or weaving baskets from water reeds by the dam; Steph would as her Dad would say, she was, “Dippy” and “Dip” between all these interests.

Later, we also found out that “Dippy” is defined as being, “silly or foolish in usually an appealing way.” (Britannica Dictionary, 2024) … A very fitting description if you have ever met the real funny, fun-loving Stephanie in person 😀

Thus, Dippety was born and has continuously evolved as a collaboration of all Steph’s loves, passions, hobbies and interests that she would love to share with the world and brighten other people’s days.

Earth Kind Practices

With so many humans inhabiting this planet there has never been a more crucial time to tred lightly upon mother earth and her resources.

To do our part we carefully select environmentally-friendly supplies, ingredients and packaging materials where we can, use natural means of protecting our plants & crops, re-use and recycle, as well as make the most of solar and tank water reserves to operate our small, home-based business.

Unique-styled Gifts

Every artist is unique and here at Dippety our style takes on a rustic, moody, woodland cottage vibe.

You might just feel like you’ve stepped straight into fairytale with each whiff of candle, flower arrangement, or when wandering through the lush and alien indoor plants.

Flexible, Friendly Service

Being a home-based business give us a friendly flexibility that you can’t always find elsewhere.

While we still need our downtime, if there is something you really need at a particular time/day, we’ll try our best to help you out, even if it’s outside our normal business hours.

Simply send us a message and we’ll see what we can do.
