super incredibly amazingly joyful to be featured this past weekend for the spring flower show at @mn_arboretum 🌼
i got to create two designs and wanted to have fun with it! so! dreamy structural draping bridal bouquet and tall transparent architectural pedestal design it was 🌱
thank you always @marthabirdart for the connect and congrats on such an amazing exhibition, was so thrilled to be able to help get it together 💛
finally getting around to posting some of the work from this incredible and inspiring workshop in january taught by @barthassamfloraldesign and hosted by @gate_way_flora
i learned so so much in those 3 days and i’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to help with some of the prep work beforehand!! genuinely such an inspiring week and i’m still riding the high of it
first piece features a tatami technique to create these big spiraling discs which i’m still very much obsessed with, and some fun downwards movement
second is my bridal bouquet design with bound bamboo leaves as the base (and shocking, i know, but more downwards movement 🤯)
and third was our group project creating a giant floating pergola-like thing!! ahh it was all so fun

had the best weekend in london with a superstar team of designers led by the incredible @tomasdebruyne to create these beautiful sculptures for his new book launch “The Art of Design” at @rsvpclubofficial ❤️🔥
so much knowledge was packed into these three days, and i’m really really proud of what we pulled off. still feels like a whirlwind seeing how quickly it came together, it took a special team 🌱
it was really meaningful to reconnect with my @emcprogram family and to meet new lifelong friends 🫶 one of my favorite things about working in this natural medium is how connected everything is, and this project felt like a perfect example of that.
thank you @emcprogram@dianatoma_emc@tomasdebruyne for facilitating such an eventful weekend, and thank you @helloalexander for capturing it so beautifully 📸🌸
one more push of autumn before we dive deep into winter? yeah i think so 🍁
this special set was for a wine tasting that a long time client was hosting 🍇 featuring ENTIRELY! locally sourced blooms from some of our favs @tcflowerexchange@honken_dahlias 🌸 (guys i’m already missing our local season severely over here)

had the absolute pleasure of designing this stunner bridal bouq for a queer elopement for j + a this past week! 🌸
getting to meet with them and chat in person, i found out that both were also creatives and artists! they allowed me to create something a bit more unusual, utilizing a wire structure for some of my blooms and creating these beaded threads of ilex and hypericum berry 🪻
collaborating with my clients and creating something so memorable and unique to their experiences is one of my favorite things 🌱 and to be able to convey their feelings through the language of flowers? so fulfilling 💗
