Creations for a cause

Today I want to share some flowers with you that I made for an event hosted by the LA Network of Human Rights Watch last week. It was at the awesome Breezeway at the Barker Block building in Downtown. Such a gorgeous space! So here's what I came up with (with help from Miss N once again! Thank you!):

And here's a little look of the flowers in their home during the event:

Waking up at 4:30 and trekking downtown to the flower market while the world is still asleep is no easy feat. But walking in and seeing all your flower friends is so energizing, it never ceases to amaze. Aside from the awesome people at the market (I'm lookin' at you Joe!), there are also flowers that take my breath away. Right now the Dahlias are freaking out, and I'm completely under their spell. Just look at this and try not to be transfixed:

Crazy, right?? And here's a better look at the arrangement this guy joined, made for one really special Bird's birthday:

And one more super exciting birthday I was psyched to help celebrate, that of a new little man who was just born to a very special friend:

I have a feeling the next post will be about Blushing Bride Protea (you can see it peeking out in there)...completely obsessed you guys. Completely.

Been away so long...

I had the immense honor of creating an arrangement for a very special lady's 90th (!!!!) Birthday!!!! I love this woman, and know she has a keen sense of style (she once told me to keep an eye on my MJ shoes 'cause she just might take them away from me), so coming up with the arrangement wasn't too hard. I just went for the best of the best:

I really hope AS liked her flowers. I had the best time making them for her! Lots more coming soon, stay tuned.
