With the Makers in Bloom Bus Tour right around the corner, we’re excited to introduce one of our sponsors, The Peddler! 🌸
"Hello! We are Katelyn and Lauren-two halves that make up the whole of The Peddler. We are two good friends turned business partners trying our best to be curious and find wonder in the world. We are THRILLED to be sponsors for the very first Makers in Bloom event this May. We spend our days growing, drying, and creating with dried flowers because they soothe our weary (and overstimulated!) souls and bring us joy.
We hold space for the despair of the world, but also know that all things can be redeemed so we create beauty as a signpost to the healing and abundance we believe is still possible. Last year we purchased a flower freeze- dryer so that we could preserve some harder to dry flowers and create with them in all sorts of gifts, wreaths, bouquets, wedding and installation work. We love the creative process and getting to work together to create small pieces of natural beauty for you to enjoy in any of the corners, walls, tables, and spaces that you call home."
Bus tour passengers will receive a special treat from The Peddler as part of their goodie bag! 👀
