Autumn Centerpieces
This week, while dreaming up designs for autumn centerpieces, we where kicking around ideas and inevitably the idea of using a pumpkin as a vessel came up. I was skeptical immediately. Conflicted too because I wanted to explore it & challenge myself to create something beautiful while steering clear of the prototypical, FTD-esque model for a "fall centerpiece". Proud to say, I think we stayed true to ourselves and made them natural & unique.

Flower Deliveries
Every week we deliver flower arrangements to a few local businesses and The most perfect August day instinctively inspired this week's flowers.
Vivid sunny yellows. Purples and oranges like a hazy sunset and sky blue delphinium.
Quintessential summer.

Farm to Barn Cocktail Party at the George Weir Barn
From its setting, at the bottom of a grassy hill peppered with wild flowers just a stones throw from the backwaters of the Long Island Sound, to its centuries old, weathered-to-perfection grey planks, the George Weir Barn is rustic beauty at its finest. Built in 1711, the barn is one of several historic buildings on the property of beautiful Caumsett State Park in Lloyd Harbor, NY.
This past Saturday, we did the event design for the Lloyd Harbor Historical Society's Farm to Barn Cocktail Party. Have a look...
