Now that we’ve had some time to breathe, there’s something we’d like to say:

Here at The Lilac Thief, we stand against bigotry, hate, greed, and corruption. Like many of you, this week we have felt despair, fear, and anger as more than half of US voters chose to stand with Trump. But we still believe in the resiliency of the human spirit and the power of resistance. We are reminding ourselves that positive social change never happens because the majority of a population supports it, but rather because a much smaller group of committed people demand it. As we enter into what will surely be an unstable and uncertain time in American history, we commit to fighting for equality and social justice whenever we can, in any way we can.

We also believe in the healing power of plants, ritual, and magic. A spell is simply a way to direct energy and intention to a specific outcome. We chose dahlias and zinnias for the background of this post because of what these flowers represent. Dahlias correspond with growth, fortitude, perseverance, and love. Zinnias represent strength, steadfastness, endurance, friendship, goodness, and constancy. These are some of the very last flowers in the garden as the days grow darker and colder, reminding us to look for joy and beauty even as times get tough. 🖤✊

This unusually warm autumn weather means we are still enjoying flowers from The Lilac Thief gardens, and we are still harvesting materials to dry for future projects like the wreath workshop we will be offering on November 17th! Check it out at the link in our bio.

We are so excited to participate in the Harvest Market at next Sunday, September 29th! We’ll have lots of gorgeous wreaths, cloches, blessing bundles, and more!

We made some specially themed bundles to donate to our friends at Food Not Bombs. These will be available at their anniversary benefit show this weekend - swipe to see the flyer, and read more about FNB Waltham below!

Waltham Food Not Bombs provides mutual aid and solidarity to all of our neighbors in the city. We do so by rescuing food that would be thrown away- because capitalism would allow people to starve if it can’t turn a profit- and transforming it into delicious vegan meals every Sunday, 2-4, on the Waltham Common. Food is given away freely to anyone who wants it. We generally serve around 50 people, and some of those who eat with us also cook with us. We also offer a grocery distro on Wed evenings where folks can shop for free. That’s on Moody st. near Gustazo’s, starting at 6pm. We provide solidarity with those treated as disposable by capitalism and fascism. This isn’t charity- it’s about building the kind of community that can survive all of the trauma and disasters of today and tomorrow.

Flowering a wedding is always a special experience, but it hits differently when the couple tying the knot are people you know and love. Stef and Ethan, we adore you! 🧡

Still swooning over this color palette and how it blended perfectly with the gorgeous desert midcentury vibe at

This was our first event outside of New England and away from our gardens and regular wholesalers. Huge thanks to Kristie at for hooking us up with materials from her beautiful farm and , letting us use her studio and coolers, and delivering the arrangements to the venue on the big day.

After we do a wedding, we like to send a little keepsake to the couple as a token of gratitude for trusting us with their special day! In this case, we sent the bride’s dried bouquet and framed pressed botanicals that were part of the installations at the reception. For this wedding, the bride proposed a super fun concept: soft neutrals for the personal florals at the ceremony and a rainbow disco aesthetic for the reception! Swipe to see before and after pics of the bouquet and photos of the wedding florals!
