I wanted to say hello again to the new peeps that are following along on my flower adventures.
Who the heck am I ? here’s a few tidbits
to reintroduce myself and share some random facts about me 👇🏻
My name is Kim, in addition to flower design, I also work at as a designer and decorator on one of their pre-taped film units. and I won an Emmy this year! 🏆 We shoot 21 episodes a season and the rest of the year I work on florals for private clients and & tv shows.
This year I hope to do more styled photo shoots, that collaboration is where I really feel alive.
I am 100% Armenian
My first part-time job was at a flower shop in upstate New York for the holidays I was hooked immediately.
I love skiing as much as flower slinging, my current favorite is Big Sky, Montana. In February year I’m planning to try out Mt. Bachelor.

•I am also obsessed with lists so here’s what’s currently in my notes under “things I like” I bet we all have a lot in common.
clean sheets

I named Mac and the Mushroom after my late dog Mac. If you scroll through my website gallery you will can see the photo that inspired the name. I currently live with my husband and 2 dogs in NJ & VT

What did you do this week to soothe your anger? Pausing from the emotional roller coaster of a week we all just experienced. Like most people I know, I felt lost scared and disappointed this week.
I use art to help heal and process my emotions. Cleaning can do this for me too😂 Both give me time alone to process feelings that might be hard to put into words.
I tuned out of news and media too and instead tried to use creativity to provide relief, insight, and a sense of calm.
Wishing you all some much deserved peace
Have a great Sunday !

With so many amazing shots, how do you choose what makes the grid first? Truth is, you don’t! Expect to see plenty more of Annie and Raf because there’s just too much goodness to share. Huge thanks to my clients for trusting me with their vision. Grateful beyond words for the floral opportunities!

For years, I’ve been planting perennials and annuals in our yard, often gathering just enough for a small vase. But this time, I’m thrilled to share that every single stem in this arrangement is homegrown—all from our yard in ! I can hardly believe it, but it’s true—I cut each one myself.

Naturally, I’m now completely obsessed and want to grow even more. What’s your favorite vase-worthy plant I can add to our garden?
