Finally Feels Like Christmas

I love Christmas. Besides the meaning of Christmas and being with family and firends there are always certain sights and sounds that make it "feel" like Christmas time. I love the smell of pine, baking cookies, and having to heat up the car before driving anywhere. I love the cold weather, having to wear a scarf outside and being able to see my breath outside. For the last few weeks it just hasn't felt like Christmas time. The weather has been eerily warm most days and even reached into the 60's. Weird. But today that Christmas feeling has finally come. We got just enough snow last night to cover the trees and the ground. It's beautiful! I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas or Chanukah or whatever day you celebrate at this time of year!

Enjoy the following photos of recent work I have done.

Getting Started

I am very new to blogging but I keep hearing how great it is...keep people up to date on what you're doing...promote business...keep clients up to date on your latest work..etc. So, I'm going to give it a try. For those of you who don't know, my name is Elizabeth McClure. I own Flourish & Ferns, a floral design studio focused on weddings, baby and bridal showers, anniversary parties and other events.

In this blog I will be listing my latest designs. The most recent pictures I have are from the wedding of Allison and James. The reception was held at Su Chang's Restaurant in Peabody, MA. Allison wanted to take advantage of all the beautiful harvest colors in the fall. We decided to use two types of arrangements: low and tall. The tall arrangements had curly willow branches with orange mokara orchids hand tied all over them. Lots of work but the effect it gave was so worth it. They were such a great couple and I wish them the best!
