“Being an artist is learning to give your passions space. It’s a true test of patience while being a tiresome experience... but I learned it was apart of my process to let go for a while and start over from scratch. Whatever that may look like.. I anticipate and welcome the art life again with open arms.”

Sharing has been a challenge lately. Each time I log onto social media, a wave of unease washes over me with all that’s happening in the world. Yet, I find comfort in remembering why I created BLOOM during the pandemic—a time filled with uncertainty and struggle. My mission has always been to uplift and inspire humanity through the ways we connect and consume. Together, in community and through commerce, we can nurture positivity and resilience. Let’s keep blooming, even in tough times.

You rock.
XOXO

Mood: EVERY DAY IS A GIFT

I’ll try not to bombard you with too much NEW YEAR sap, but it wouldn’t be me if I didn’t share a few words. 🤭🙃

THIS YEAR, we will grow together, laugh together, mourn together, celebrate together, and as my 8-year-old daughter beautifully puts it: ‘We will dance in the rain together.” I pray for our safety and health as we strive to better ourselves, our loved ones, and our community.

Staying TRUE to myself and my aspirations, THIS YEAR will be fueled by collaborations with partners who align with our commUNITY. I’m excited to try new things and methods—some will thrive, and others may be short-lived. I trust some of you will share your opinions on matters along the way, which is totally ALL GOOD, of course. ☺️😳

To kick things off, we’ll be reOPENing on February 1st after a much-needed work/life balance break to tidy up and refresh our inventory. [I am still taking floral orders and event requests via email]. I’m also considering our Winter hours, as I know it can be tough to get out in the cold! 🥶 I’m thinking of opening every day, but I’ll need to hire an experienced, reliable, friendly, and proactive Barista and Florist. [Email resumes]

Lastly, on my VISION board for THIS YEAR, I’m manifesting the opportunity to host a lifeSTYLE segment on and/or [Who do I talk to?!]

2025!!! I’m grateful for another year to make it happen! HERE we GrOw …the gift that keeps on giving and serving throughout the year!s
