FLORAL DESIGN: Hobby turns passion turns business for Morgan Moylan - Durham Herald Sun

Moylan says.From her studio, Moylan shares knowledge and wisdom and technique to properly arranging and designing flowers.The UNC-Chapel Hill alumna and well-traveled connoisseur of all things flowers also recognizes that through her love of floral design there are aspects beyond teaching that carry over to others, too.“I also incorporate team building through floral design. I’ll have men and women come here and we talk about how arranging flowers or decorating with flowers incorporates with team building and capitalizing on one’s strengths,” says Moylan.And where floral design and presentation are cornerstones to events and settings, especially weddings, Moylan allows the resource of her knowledge and her shop to also serve as a special resource for brides, too.“One of the things I do and it has to be the right bride, is I will have the bride and her wedding party come and be part of the floral creating and design process. I actually help the bride orchestrate her bouquet. It is a really special process and the brides that have done this at the shop really appreciate the intimate aspect of being involved in this very pretty detail,” says Moylan.And while the details of how lavender and pink and green and all things floral are important, Moylan says that the power of flowers can be something beyond the visual, too.“Because of an experience I had with flowers, specifically those planted by the (N.C. Department of Transportation) through their wildflower program, I actually was invited to be a keynote speaker at a DOT event.“My kids were being typical kids in the car and I just needed a moment. When I pulled off the road, there were flowers, planted by the DOT and I just stood in this flower patch and really the moment was quite calming,” says Moylan.From her studio, Moylan teaches the techniques and finer aspects of floral design. Yet, she also shares her talents and passion in floral arrangement for events, too.“One of my favorite floral design events is when I am asked by an artist to arrange flowers that compliment or brings out the purpose of their respective artwork. It is really an honor that someone trusts me to interpret their art through flowers,” Moylan says.EDITOR’S NOTES -- Have a story idea for Jason Hawkins?

Colorado Springs entrepreneur brings flowers and charm to Old Colorado City with Sweetwater: A Flower Market - Colorado Springs Gazette

When Kristyn Cline walked into a mercantile shop while on a solo trip to Nashville, Tennessee, last September, she emerged with a spark of inspiration.The experience she had in the hometown-feeling store and the accompanying flower truck outside the store gave her an idea to open a business in Colorado Springs with the same vision.And with that short seven-day trip, “Sweetwater: A Flower Market” was born. The floral and mercantile store that opened this week is named for Sally, Cline’s mother, who passed nearly three years ago. The logo features lavender, Cline’s favorite scent, and something that calms and attracts her, and she hopes others as well. Cline bought a building at 2419 W. Colorado Ave. in Old Colorado City for the brick-and-mortar business, where she felt the market would fit in with the historic vibe while growing the neighborhood.Cline, 52, created Sweetwater because she wanted to share her experience with a southern charm mercantile store in Nashville with the Colorado Springs community.“It... https://gazette.com/cheyenneedition/colorado-springs-entrepreneur-brings-flowers-and-charm-to-old-colorado-city-with-sweetwater-a-flower/article_7dbaedde-77a5-11eb-8fe3-1b45ec1a2d2e.html

Dayton Tennessee, pop up flower shop – The Triangle - Triangle

Written by: Eleanor Sanford, staff writerDAYTON, Tenn. – Love is in the air as Valentine’s day is quickly approaching. Every store in Dayton, Tennessee, is filling up with heart-shaped items and red roses. I recently met a local business owner, Lacey Raburn, who owns Raburn Acres. Raburn Acres is a local flower farm and florist that has been in Dayton for the past three years. I met Lacey at a pop-up flower shop hosted at Jennings Coffee & Tea. She brought in six buckets filled with colorful bouquets, and people began rolling in. Within 30 minutes, she had sold out. Lacey has a pop-up shop every Thursday morning from 10:30-12:30 at Jennings. She and her family have a farm where they plant and grow all their own flowers, which she crafts into some amazing bouquets and sells to the community. Lacy is currently working on creating her own workshop, she used to create all the bouquets from her kitchen counter, but as of January, she said, “I went from selling 15-20 bouquets each week to selling 50-60 every week.” She just opened a self-serve mini flower stand across from the golf course in Dayto... http://www.bryantriangle.com/news/dayton-tennessee-pop-up-flower-shop/
