Baby Shower Arrangements for Hailey Kandell

Hailey Kandell needed some baby boy arrangements for a baby shower she was throwing for a friend. I like the way these turned out. Quite... Dr. Seuss-esque.

Amid the Tempest, Dark and Wild

I couldn't not help myself to the beautifully wild, dark agonis and coral peach peonies! When I saw them, I knew I had to create something. I had so much fun playing with the visual weight on this one, the left being anchored by the volume of the pussy willow and the right being anchored by the dark and visually dense texture of the agonis.

A bit of Irish Countryside

This year for Habitat for Humanity's fundraiser breakfast, seeing as it was near St. Patrick's Day, they wanted to do a pot of gold theme. At first I was stumped as to how I was going to pull this off without it being kitschy or cheesy. I opted to do something mossy. Something resonant of Irish Countryside with gold accents. 


We had so much fun creating these. I imagine the forest floor in Ireland looking just like these. I will be very much disappointed if, one day when I go there, it doesn't look like this.

Beauties, I tell you!

Ornamental Kale, Sponge Mushrooms, Sheet Moss, Maidenhair fern, Scabiosa Pods, Waxflower

Amelia & Phil

I was ecstatic when Amelia said turquoise was one of her colors! We had really wanted to use fern curls (aka monkey's tail, fiddle fern) in her bouquet, but we still wanted to bring in the turquoise color, so I came up with the wire fern curls instead. I was so excited to create the unique, crescent shaped bouquet. This lovely palette had just a touch of winter with small bits of dusty miller, cedar, and amaryllis. 

More pictures to follow!

Boutonnieres of white majolica spray roses, turquoise wire fern curls, seeded eucalyptus, dusty miller, and stems finished with more wire detailing.

Bridesmaid bouquet of turqoise wire fern curls, peacock feather tips, turquoise waxflower, "Amelia" roses, misty white, variegated lily grass, and seeded eucalyptus. 

My favorite view of this crescent shaped bouquet is from the side: 

Bride's Bouquet: a lovely crescent shaped bouquet with white amaryllis, calla lilies, white majolica spray roses, seeded eucalyptus, dusty miller, cedar, teal/turquoise waxflower, turquoise wire fern curls.
