Auburn University Interior Plants and Floral Design

As I am drawing near to my graduation date from Auburn University's Public Horticulture Master's Program (the reason why this blog is sadly lacking in posts), I am remembering all of the parts I loved most about my time here.  And right at the top of my list is the Interior Plants and Floral Design course taught by my major professor, Carolyn Robinson.  I both took the course as an undergraduate and helped to teach it as a graduate student.  My favorite experience was the teaching since I got to design so many arrangements--one a week for ten weeks straight!!  Here are a few of my favorite designs from this past fall semester and some others that I did randomly inbetween!

 

 

 

 

 

Ivy and Hunt

This past summer I had the honor of working with an amazingly sweet bride and friend--she was the best first official client a girl could have! Ivy and Hunt Prothro created a beautiful wedding at Work Play in downtown Birmingham.  The wedding was bright, festive, and leaned towards the modern end of the spectrum.  It was a blast and convinced me even more that I am doing exactly what I am supposed to be doing! I LOVE FLOWERS! Ok.  Sorry for the outburst.  But I do.

The flowers in the wedding were green hydrangeas, yellow billy balls, white and purple ranunculus, pink spray roses, pink garden roses, white anemones, coral cockscomb, and an aspidistra accent.  I also enjoyed adding a few sprigs of ivy into the mix in honor of the beautiful bride! The bright saturated colors increased the modern feel and played extremely well off the plum bridesmaids dresses and charcoal suits.

Can't wait to show more work!

Welcome!

Welcome to my new blog for my floral design adventures.  As a recent graduate from Auburn University, my endeavors as a solo floral designer are just getting off the ground.  But, I absolutely love to work with flowers in all kinds of styles.  I look forward to sharing some of my work with you here!
