I had the most wonderful experience at the Ninth Moon Floral Design Showcase at the Lan Su Classical Chinese Garden in Portland OR last weekend.  I was one of the featured florists showcasing a flower arrangement to celebrate the chrysanthemum.

The garden is such a beautiful oasis in the heart of the city....

When you're there you would not even feel like your in Portland, let alone, America.

Here are some other pieces I like, from fellow floral artists..... <3

Come check out my work at the Lan Su Chinese Garden.  Portland, OR.... November 7-9th.... Celebrating and showcasing the chrysanthemum at the Ninth Moon/Lantern Festival !

I had such a wonderful time parntering up with Power of Love Rentals at the Troutdale House by the Sandy River Wedding Show 2014, March 2, 2014 !!!   It was a wonderful way to meet brides with familes and vendors at a beautiful wedding venue in Troutdale, OR.  I showcased a variety of flower decorations and bouquets highlighting the Pantone color of 2014, Radiant Orchid.  My florals helped showcase some vintage-inspired and beautiful items that you can rent out from Power of Love Rentals, based out of Portland. 

We worked well as a team, showcasing some of the best of each other's wedding products and inventoy.  So many brides are getting married at the Troutdale House this year.  It was a wonderful way for everyone to meet each other and hopefully I will work with some in the near future. 

My first show ever to be a part of, it was well worth it!  I have made many new contacts and started good relationships with others.  I look forward to being very busy in the near future, helping deserving brides make their special day even more special.
