Coral Callas at the Jewel Box

Sheena and Scott were married in September at the Jewel Box. We had the pleasure of designing their flowers. Here are some shots from that day.




The Jewel Box set up for the ceremony.


This linear bridal bouquet had coral callas lilies and white cymbidium orchids.




The bridesmaids carried coral gerber daisies accented with green hypericum berries.




Congratulations to wedding party and their families!

~ Holiday Cards ~

Here is a selection of some of my favorite holiday cards from all that I have come across lately. As you know, I am obsessed with letterpress...so most of these are letterpress designs, of course! They are from {Oblation Papers}, {Elum Designs}, {Bespoke Letterpress Boutique} and a few others. If you are in the San Luis Obispo area...be sure to check out {Paper Sky} ~ Jessica carries a lot of these cards featured above in her store. I have been telling myself for the past few years that I will start early and design my own Christmas cards, but some how each year flies by and by the time I realize, it is usually to late. I might still try and shoot for at least designing an e-card! Stay tuned...

Before & After Chair

This before and after chair project was a recent favorite of mine from {Design*Sponge}. Absolutely beautiful work! I love the contemporary colors and stripes with a traditional floral design with the hint of wood grain coming through. I think I just got inspired to do something like this to my dinner table and chairs...

Peonies in November!

The last weekend in November is not typically the time of year that you would expect to see peonies. Our bride, Sara, really loves peonies, so we did all we could to get them for her bouquet, even in the off season. Here are some photos taken by Chelsea that show just how gorgeous these November peonies were!





We mixed the white peonies with sahara roses for this lush bridal bouquet.











Not every seasonal flower will cooperate and be this pretty or even available when they are out of season. This is just one of those examples of good fortune and all the planets being aligned just right!! Sisters Flowers will always try to make their clients happy--even when it means ordering June peonies in November!!
