But being a mom can be a tough gig—the expectations are sky-high, the hours are long, the work itself— Mother’s Day is a good time to stop and renew our appreciation, and an awesome gift couldn’t hurt.”  — Sue ellen LARRIMORECredits: Bold and stunning, this arrangement commands the room with colorful peonies, garden roses, hydrangeas, ranunculus and phalaenopsis orchid stems. For an added female touch, the arrangement is potted in a moss-covered coin purse, with added jewels and placed in a wood floral garden box.

The stone planter then receives a dash of whimsy, once Creighton encircled it with curly willow shrubs and adorned them with faux butterflies for a garden feel. The grandeur of the four-tiered design catches the eye of artists and green thumbs alike, while the wired ribbon French bow adds a gift-wrapped statement.

17 Best Wedding Flower Crown Ideas To Wear On Your Special Day - YourTango

Go a little bohemian with this natural tiara style. Call me a hippie, or call me a Millennial, but I absolutely love the idea of incorporating a flower crown into a bridal outfit. A wedding flower crown is elegant, simple, and, more often than not, way more affordable than an old-school bridal veil. They also can be made by your local florist or yourself, if you’re crafty. As a fan of flower crowns and a fan of craft ideas, I had to put together a list of flower crowns I found on Instagram. Here are some inspirational wedding ideas that will make you want to get floral at your bridal bash!1. Hippie beautyRoses are the more traditional wedding flower, and it’s true, they definitely are romantic. Daisies, though, can be just as romantic and glamorous. They’re also more affordable, and work well with both rustic and bohemian weddings. This flower crown really works with anyone who views themselves as a hippie, a country girl, or just a fan of the simple things in life.

Drew Barrymore's Bohemian Home Decor Collection for Walmart Screams Florida Airbnb, and I Love It - Jezebel

Drew Barrymore has launched a furniture and home goods line called Flower Home at Walmart with the goal of sharing her “bohemian” style with the general public at affordable prices. It’s a noble aim, but just how true to her personal taste are all 200+ items? Allow me, a human with zero traditional interior design training and a whole lot of opinions, to be the judge of that.Item one:Sea shells, the flowers of the sea! These are gaudy in a particularly Florida Airbnb kind of way (you know, the furniture that adorn every villa in Kissimmee, FL and the other small cities adjacent to Disney World?) That said, they’re kinda cute. $26 is pretty affordable, too, especially considering they weigh four pounds.Rating: 7/10Item two:AdvertisementI love these friendly looking birds (and once again, the color scheme suggest a strong Florida vacation vibe) but why is it $124? It’s a print in a nice frame, and it’s quite large, but for more than one hundred dollars? That’s, like, 31 rolls of white Christmas lights at Walmart, or 25 bags of Tyson-brand chicken nuggets. Not a deal.Rating: 2/10Item three:AdvertisementIf... https://jezebel.com/drew-barrymores-bohemian-home-decor-collection-for-walm-1833742851

A Floral Designer Who Forages in the Hills of Malibu - The New York Times

Indeed, Moreno-Bunge is part of a new wave of designers — among them the Berlin-based studio Mary Lennox and the New York-based Joshua Werber — for whom the term florist seems too narrow a definition; they’re artists who not only confirm the obvious appeal of blooms but also reveal the magnificence of their landscapes’ less flamboyant elements: leaves, vegetables, seedpods, weeds and humble grasses.The florist creates a wild, sculptural arrangement of plants including golden rain tree, oats, artichoke flowers and green persimmons.CreditCredit...Scott J. RossThis approach has made Isa Isa — Moreno-Bunge’s five-year-old floral design business, which creates effervescent, naturalistic arrangements and installations — the studio of choice for many of L.A.’s most interesting brands. Visitors to the Chinatown store of the clothing label Eckhaus Latta in 2018 might have noticed a single, ethereal white Iceland poppy emerging from a dense green cluster of beadlike dates, slatted areca palm leaves and the drooping, fist-size fruit of the silk floss tree, arranged by Moreno-Bunge in a pitcher on a table of accessories. More recently, she displayed three green tromboncino squash, coiled like snakes, alongside bouquets of black tomatoes, olive branches and unripened persimmons and lemons, at the women’s clothing boutique Shaina Mote in Highland Park.

Flower farm Detroit Abloom fosters connection between nature and community - Model D

Abloom into the paradise it was meant to be,” Milano says. Milano’s journey to becoming a farmer started in 1972, when Milano — who was 22 at the time — chose to leave his home in Long Island, New York, to travel the world in a search for a deeper understanding of the world around him.  “I was two weeks away from becoming a high school biology teacher, and something told me not to get plugged into the system, so to speak, because I was really concerned about the world and all this racial disharmony and the destruction of the environment,” Milano says. “So, I got a 10-speed bike. I sold my car. I was a taxidermist and had collections of all kinds of animals, and I just gave up everything and I went cross country from Long Island to San Diego.”  He went from Hawaii to Japan to Iran to France, learning about different religions and ways of life during his journey. He became connected to the Hare Krishna movement, a branch of Hinduism, while hitchhiking, and he saw Eastern religions and the lifestyle as something he wanted to bring back to the U.S. when he returned in 1987.  He found his way to Detroit, initially to do food distribution, he says. “In Hare Krishna, food is sacred, it’s sanctified. It purifies people’s consciousness, I was really behind that. I thought, what better city than Detroit could really use some help, especially in 1987.” He was drawn to the city’s spirit and resilience, and he knew he wanted to be a part of its revival, “but from a spiritual perspective.” From there, Milano got involved with and started up projects relating to food distribution. When he was traveling, he volunteered often with food distribution projects through the Hare Krishna temple, and wanted to bring that to Detroit. He took up farming, originally focused on edible crops, and started up the Jefferson Chalmers Community Food System on city-owned land. There, he grew edible crops for the neighborhood and for restaurants to promote a local diet and eliminate waste, as well as employed people in the area.  “I realized that, God, all this vacant land in Detroit can be such a tremendous asset, not a liability,” Milano says. “In neighborhoods, we would clean up lots, and have people take care of those lots, but then I realized why not go a little further and actually turn the lots into beautiful landscapes and productive landscapes that create jobs.” After six years, Milano was able to b... https://www.modeldmedia.com/features/detroit-abloom-flourishes.aspx
