Street Find

Found at a flea market on 20th Street and McDonald Ave in Windsor Terrace for $40 bucks!! (thank you Amy :)



Add some flowers and used it here:

The Sweetest Thing

I wish there was a way to press your nose up against the screen and smell this bouquet. This massive single peony had the loveliest scent. It also included bay leaf, oregano, allium and scented geranium. It was heavenly. I will post more from the wedding soon.

lush bella

I've been a fan of Lush Bella's work for awhile now. I love the feminine feel and vintage touches.

Guinnea Hen Collage

New little collage for a sunny Thursday afternoon

The Urban Meadow

Okay. Get back to work. Paperwork. Wash vases. But I want to sit in that chair a read a book at the Urban Meadow. When will the sun shine?

The Cocktail Hour

Some quick shots of the cocktail hour. We used rosemary, oregano, lavender, sage, peonies, spray roses, hydrangea, plum branch, viburnum, queen anne's lace, tulips, scabious, artichokes, figs on the branch, radishes, beets, terra cotta, birch...

Early Summer Wedding

Here are the bouquet and boutonniere from a wedding this past Saturday. I will post more images soon!

fluffy and floaty

This hair piece is just gorgeous. I wish I wore this on my wedding day. Can I wear one around town just for the heck of it? By Handle and Spout. Found at Mary Ruffle.

Highline

After dropping these lovelies off for a fundraiser at the Chelsea Market, Littlest Pheasant and I popped up to the Highline for a quick stroll. Having worked for the architects Diller Scofidio + Renfro who co-designed it with Field Operations - it was extra special for me to experience it finished. I was privy to seeing it on paper first. It's amazing how the initial renderings looked so much like the finished product! All those years of hard work on their part has really paid off. What an incredible addition to New York City's public spaces. You all must go for a visit.

With or Without?

Press Butterflies and Peonies

See that framed pressed butterfly display? 2 bucks. Picked up at a stoop sale on Henry and President Streets. Score!

Cherry Red

Instead of working I'm surfing around Etsy and thinking of cherries - the fruit, the flower and the color.

Lavendar and Birch

Thank you to all that came out to this past weekend's Recession Friendly Wedding Event at Sweet Revenge (which I can personally attest has the most delicious cupcakes). Here are some shots of what I designed.

Black Beauty

Black beauty roses are my favorite. Some bouquets from the weekend...

More Party Shots

Sorry I just had to post the masterpiece called "the house". A true collaboration between my family. It was a huge hit. More flower pics on the way...

Happy Birthday

For my baby girl's party. I love you Ruby!

A White Wedding

Spring Fresh Wedding

Here is a clean and modern design for an early spring wedding at Bubby's in Dumbo. We placed wide grosgrain ribbon down the center of the tables and added little cubes of green grass. It all looked seriously refreshing. Thank you to photographer Lauren Slusher for her terrific images. She has one of the happiest websites I've ever seen. Love it.
