sharon Organic Elements

Sharon is an amazing florist and friend.  She is the person who suggested I team up with Kate, Meaghan, and Sabrina -the REVO board.  So you can see why I think Sharon is pretty great =)  xoxo suzanne                                                                                                   
Why REVO? Because tragedy just strikes, it doesn't pick and choose based on who can afford the fight, it just strikes. This could be happening to any one of us, Peggy is any one of us. We live within our community, a group of self employed artists which understand what happens when you can't work. We've chosen a life outside the office and with that comes no safety net, we have to be eachother's safety net.
 

A wedding story The last two pics are from a wedding that this story is from, it was last August. The mother of the bride's mom had recently passed away and they were going to have a small memorial table with her pictures at the wedding, of course we comped an arrangement for it immediately. Later on into the planning both mother and daughter (bride) told me that they had something they wanted to add into the arrangements (one chose ceremony and the other chose a particular centerpiece) that they didn't want he other one knowing about. At our final meeting each gave me a box with instructions as to how they wanted me to add this crystal figure into their chosen arrangement.  I open up both boxes, they are the exact same crystal dragonflies which they each explained was a symbol for the grandmother who had passed. Both bride and mom choked up as they witnessed the figure that the other had purchased for them. True story :) You can see the crystals hanging below the floral and fabric arch in the pic, the central one is the dragon fly.
