One of the most beautiful and satisfying things is presenting a bride her bouquet! It reminds me of a being a little girl again. That innocent princess moment where your eyes are full of sparkle and your heart as light as air.

I love creating beautiful things! It gives me so much pleasure to carefully maneuver stems, making them to lay just right.
But, my goal is not to become the best in my industry. The ‘best’ is relative and unmeasurable. I don’t do this work to become famous or popular.
I am here however, to be the best that "I" can be. To be the best business woman, best teacher, best designer, best gardener that "I" am capable of being.

I am not in this world of business men and women to win anything. It is not a competition to me. I only want to walk a life of self confidence and self sufficiency. I am here to empower any and every person I can, to be the best version of themselves.

This is what my Facebook group, Blooming into Beautiful is all about. You can find the group and join under my community tab.

Vision:
-To empower women to embrace their skills and be self-sustaining. To walk them to a place of full confidence in themselves.

-To Teach design skills, business skills, horticulture and botany, landscape design, personal development, self help and introspection.

-Transformation of self, for myself and those on this journey with me. Renewing of mind and body. Also, transformation of spaces, events, our home and our cities.

If you align with this vision and are interested in being coached in self confidence, then you might like my group Blooming into Beautiful. You can find the group in my Community tab.

These are a few principles we will be going over in my Facebook group, Blooming into Beautiful.

When I took a poll on Instagram I discovered that 94% of my friends struggle with confidence in their skills and abilities.
This absolutely crushed me. When I see people, I see all that they are capable of.
But confidence doesn't come from someone telling you what they see in you. Confidence comes from a deep place within yourself.
I know that with steady empowerment and guidance you can step into having genuine self confidence.

I hope you will consider joining me there. You can find my group int the community tab of my page.

Story Time: An experience I had that taught me to have confidence in myself. I was teaching a student/ employee in the studio and she asked what floral item was easiest for me to make. I said it was the personal bouquets. Everyone there was confused and dismayed because for them, the bouquet was the hardest item to master. I explained that it was because everyone I teach are stuck using only one of their senses. Their eyes. What I had learned through years of practice was to design by touch and not just with my sight. It was also an easy item to create because I love them so much. Also, It is easiest to master skills that you deeply desire. And making beautiful bouquets is one of my greatest passions.

What are you about as a person? Like, what is it that makes your heart sing?

A few years back I realized I would continue to be tossed around in my emotions, messy in my business, and life direction would be scattered, if I did not understand my unique purpose. So after months of so much soul searching and filtering through wants, needs, hopes and dreams, I honed in on what I truly value in life. My purpose in life is to deeply touch every person I meet and leave them more whole and beautiful than how I met them. If I have done this I will be fulfilled and inspired.

“I exist not to be loved and admired, but to love and act. It is not the duty of those around me to love me. Rather, it is my duty to be concerned about the world, about man”- Janusz Korezak

I have started a Facebook Group called Blooming into Beautiful. This is a space for those who desire to learn self confidence, and seek after their purpose, and it will be filled with flowers and beauty of course. There will be floral design and paint lessons, along with confidence building exercises and tips.

If you are interested in joining, you can find the group in my community tab.

When I started my business at age 21, In my heart I was scared. I knew I was not equipped to run a business. I didn’t know all my flowers, I am horrible with numbers and couldn’t tell you what a balance sheet was. Even now at 30 I feel like an ignorant 16 year old with a dream I am not big enough to fill. But I know the skills and gifts I have are enough. I have prayed over where God wants my hands to be working and it is here. It is this.
People have spoken this over me
I have been affirmed that I am meant to teach
I have been affirmed that I have a voice to change the direction of human lives toward thriving.
And while i do this I get to do my favorite thing… design, create and be around flowers.
I get to build something beautiful. I am blooming into beautiful.

My Blooming into beautiful is now open in my community tab!

Creating Moments! Giving life to dreams! Having a blast while doing it! 🥰
2011 was when I started my business, but I think, if I remember correctly, my first wedding on my own was in 2008.

In 2008 it was for fun and someone saw that I could do it. I probably lost money cause I was only having them reimburse for the flowers and forgot to charge them for things like ribbon.

I didn't care though! I cranked down the little, window AC unit as far as it would let me. I was just happy to be around flowers.

I believe I did two more weddings after that before pursuing floristry as a business.

I started my business in 2011 at age 21 under the business name Katie’s Concoctions. My logo was a science beaker with creative items bubbling out of it. It was the remnants of a 13 year olds dreams and entrepreneurial spirit. It was a picture of my scattered thoughts. Creative in every direction and with no focus. But a year later at 22, I was stepping out of my childhood and taking on the challenge of life and adult responsibility more seriously. Needless to say a rebranding was in order, and thus Velours Designs was born. With a beautiful silhouette of a woman. A flower in her hair, a splash of watercolor paint and the sweet colors of spring.

Moral of the story... the journey is far more beautiful than the destination!

This year will be different. Your local florist will most likely not be able to afford ANY waste this year and therefore will not have as much extra for "last minute orders." Please do your mom, yourself, and your local florist a favor and PRE ORDER YOUR MOTHERS FLOWERS. I am not joking when I say your local florists have lost all of their spring wedding income.

Here is my lin for pre orders and delivery only In Redding, CA Thank you!
