Interested artists are on the hook for their plane tickets.But she isn’t letting just anyone into the art house.Price said she’s vetting applicants before booking time slots, Airbnb style.

Advertisement “You have to have something you’re working on,” she said. “We want you to have that intense, focused moment to create something, whether that’s a passion project or you’re writing a book or album and you’re stuck and you need a fresh scene to be inspired.

Esscents Candles now offers flowers for all occasions - Coos Bay World

Armstrong just recently obtained the floral cooler from Auntie Em's Floral & Gifts, which was located in the Continuum Building across Second Street from Esscents. Owner Emily Bright moved to Idaho over the holidays to be closer to family and offered to sell some of her floral equipment to Armstrong."For about 1 1/2 years I've been wanting to bring something else into the shop to go along with candles, something that goes well with the name," Armstrong said.

I didn't want to do that because of Emily, so when I heard she was leaving, I started to put things into motion."Thus Esscents Candles & Floral bloomed into existence.Armstrong met experienced floral designer Natalie Brookwell through Bright and began learning how to make arrangements under her tutelage. Brookwell has been creating and teaching floral arrangements since 1978 and was educated through the Ken Gilley School of Floral Design. Brookwell lived in Bandon previously for about five years after coming from Medford and about a year ago moved back to the area from Hood River."I've wanted to get into flowers for a long time, but my mother has the green thumb, not me," Armstrong said. "But I think I'm a quick learner and I thought bringing the flowers in would mesh well with candles."Esscents Candles & Flor... http://theworldlink.com/bandon/news/business/esscents-candles-now-offers-flowers-for-all-occasions/article_e628a50b-2390-5fde-ae2a-571a0059ad89.html
