LA florists set up shop in Castle Rock - Longview Daily News

While working as a floral designer in Los Angeles, Jason Vorse created arrangements in $5 million malachite crystal urns for Princess Beatrice of York’s sweet-16 birthday party. He set up flowers for Ashton Kutcher’s wedding to Demi Moore in the middle of the night in unmarked vehicles to avoid the paparazzi.And yet, after working nearly two decades with prestigious floral design studios in Los Angeles, Vorse decided to move back to his hometown and open Pollen Floral Works with his husband, Vicente.Vorse, son of Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce Vice President Mike Vorse, started his first job at All Season Garden Center in Kelso when he was 16. All Season is now closed, but Vorse said his time there was influential.“They kind of installed that interest in the plant world and … I ran with it,” said Vorse, now 38. “I drifted over to the floral side after I started playing with the products that I was growing in my yard.”Vorse attended the Seattle Floral Design Institute and then moved to Los Angeles in 2000, honing a signature look that he describes as contemporary, romantic and modern.After years of living in a big city, the Vorses decided to slow down their pace and find a smaller, closer-knit co... http://tdn.com/news/local/la-florists-set-up-shop-in-castle-rock/article_9a9186d2-1096-58a0-aa53-0c20a45a6618.html

Boston florist launches ‘art house’ retreat in Mexico to help creativity bloom - The Boston Globe

And I think it’s important to see how other people create and to look at other people’s process.” Advertisement Price, who is originally from Idaho but came to Boston more than a decade ago to attend graduate school at the Boston Conservatory, is funding the house in its entirety, she said, including the cost of room and board and food for those selected to visit. 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. The stays will range from three to seven days at a time, to allow as many people as possible to attend and focus on their work.So, what’s the catch?Price stressed that the opportunity isn’t just to soak up the sun in Mexico during a free vacation — it’s about working toward a goal and making connections along the way. 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. We’re asking people to work on specific projects and talk about what they can bring to the house.”The other element, she said, is getting people who come down to Mexico to contribute to the group and get acquainted with the Mexican community.“Maybe you’re a musician, and you can bless us with your music in the evenings,” she said. “Or maybe you also lead guided meditations or do yoga, and you can offer that type of engagement.”Price said she’s had more than 50 conversations with artists interested in spending time at the Wandering Art House, many of them from Boston.“Already I&rsqu... https://www.bostonglobe.com/lifestyle/2018/12/11/boston-florist-launches-art-house-retreat-mexico-for-creatives-hoping-focus-projects/CJ0OTfhZM1w6F3DafJXIiL/story.html

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. "Everything friends and family suggested didn't quite seem to fit, then someone said, 'What about flowers?' 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
