The flower shop around the corner from my apartment always does such beautiful seasonal displays. It was so nice to see some color on a gray day. For Valentine’s Day they set out a plethora of pretty pinks. Which leads me to the question: Would you rather get flowers or sweets for Valentine’s/Galentine’s Day? Happy Thursday! #flowershops #greenwichvillage #floristsofinstagram #walkwithmenewyork ...

“Pink goes good with green.”

I have had such a blast creating pieces for mayeshwholesale mayeshseattle Wicked Design Challenge! There are so many parts of the story that drove the inspiration for these designs:

✨ Besties - Glinda and Elphaba’s friendship is an unbreakable, limitless force to be reckoned with. I wanted each piece to feel strong, like the bonds that these two incredible women share.

✨ Defying Gravity - Flowers are often called “magical” making them the perfect medium for this creative prompt. This theme pushed me to think outside the more traditional guidelines of floristry. It was especially fun using wires to manipulate the shapes of the calla lilies, which brought a level of whimsy I wasn’t expecting.

✨ Be Yourself - No matter how many times Elphaba has to deal with people freaking out about her green skin, she still decides to be HERSELF. Social media can breed comparison and it can be hard not to compare yourself to others. Channel your inner Elphaba and create what YOU want. Your art deserves to be seen, your voice deserves to be heard! If this design challenge speaks to you, go for it! YOUR TURN! 💖💖💖

With 5 design/colour palette options to choose from and a NEXT-DAY-DELIVERY process, we ensure that no excess flowers go to waste, guaranteeing that you’ll only ever receive the freshest blooms, every order.
