If you come to my spring floral workshops, Be Warned. Foraging for leaves and blooms can be addictive. I started obsessing about things growing on the side of the road about 4 years ago and it’s only getting more serious. You can learn more about foraging at our spring workshops, link in bio or visit @handpickedatl 💃⠀

It’s my Birthday Today 😱 🤗 ⠀
So I’m gonna brag and say April birthdays are the Best because spring in the South is heaven on earth (minus the pollen, naturally). ⠀
Wanna join me at the flower party? Spring floral workshops coming at the end of April and beginning of May! ⠀

Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.⠀
True for life And flowers. Come play with locally grown spring flowers at our floral arrangement workshops, link in bio 🙌⠀

Be warned: this is the direction I’m going with my work and I’m feeling solid about it 👍
Last week I got a call for a private event wanting burnt orange and yellow (if that was possible). Is this totally outside of my comfort zone? Yes. Is it possible? Absolutely yes.
Everything in this arrangement purchased locally from @3porchfarm with some extras thrown in from foraging in my yard ✨

Happy Spring!! Some people rejoice at decorative gourd season, I’m a fan of flowering branch season. Come to my spring flower workshops with @handpickedatl and we will talk all about foraging for pretty things 🌸

New happenings! Come make an arrangement with me using amazing, locally sourced spring flowers. We’ll talk foraging and where to buy locally grown goodies, and you get to make your own arrangement to take home ✨ all workshops held @docentcoffee check out @handpickedatl for dates and tickets!

To be honest, we don’t really do Valentine’s Day as a married couple. But you know what does get me excited? GALENTINES. For the past several years, my friends have done brunch (mimosas are mandatory) and we do a book exchange. A Romantic Book exchange. We have to read out a random scene to the table and then we white elephant style swap for books. The books are ... bad. But my girls are wonderful. And we laugh A Lot.

P.S. current popular genres in the “romance” category seem to be cowboys and vampires, with an honorary mention to Scottish Highlanders. 💕

Roses. I’ve had some brides be wary of them for fear they’d look too basic or old-fashioned. But there’s a huge world of variety with some incredible colors thanks to thousands of years of cultivation. 🤓 these babies are from @gracerosefarm and they are like supermodels in front of the camera. Do I always use roses? No. But I never regret it when I do 🌸✨ Photo @heatherkcook

It’s been raining for weeks here, and I leaned in with moody music and books. There’s beauty in every season but (like everyone else) I’m soaking up the sunbeams that we’ve finally been gifted! ⠀

New Year’s Day is never as invigorating as I expect it to be. Waking up with a new date, things are basically the same as they were the day before (unless you got engaged at midnight like I did that one time 😉). ⠀
⠀
Any day can be the day everything changes, with the smallest step or biggest single leap you can muster. Yes set those goals, dream those dreams ... and do it as often as possible. ⠀

Stopped by #asentimentalshop today and oh how that light makes everything glow.
I’ve studied art and photography, so maybe it’s natural that I always notice the light. Maybe it’s why I studied art in the first place. All that to say... it’s encouraging to get some sunbeams after several days of cold rain. But trust me, as a person given to aesthetics, this shop is warm and bright any given day.

Warm and bright at @thesentimentalistatl this weekend. Though it’s cold and dreary out, these ladies have welcoming velvet sofas and alllll the prettiest things to warm your heart 💕✨

Wreaths! Theme this year is “I’m so minimalist I barely want to exiiiiiisssstt”. Find them for sale at @thelocalgemsmv and my house 😘

True love and an equine friend, what more could you want on a beautiful fall day 🍂 photo @thetinsleyco

I know I’m not supposed to play favorites, but this is still my fave bouquet to date. Also it pairs well with cocktails (swipe left 😘)

I turned the heat on in my studio space for the first time in many many months, and I swear the ghost of an evergreen fragrance filled the air, as if it was trapped somehow from all the branches that filled the room a year ago when I made all these wreaths. The wreaths in planning for this year likely won’t have any evergreens at all, but I may make a few things for inside my own home because there is nothing like that Christmas tree smell.
P.S. sign up for a beautiful photo session with @4cornersphoto like I did 🤓

I’m not a dark spooky person by any means, but it’s definitely possible to get a little dark and and still be elegant ... or even fierce 😘

Happy one year to Kim and Chase, who laughed their way through a sweet, thoughtful wedding day (while looking so classy, imho)
