Happy New Year, friends! What will you learn and create in 2021?

In 2020 I started @the_floral_pantry with three main goals in mind:

1. To create a space where like-minded floral enthusiasts can be inspired, learn and create floral arrangements at home - an environment that is uniquely theirs.

2. To provide such floral enthusiasts with absolutely all the flowering materials they need to design, from chicken wire and one-of-a-kind bespoke vessels, to an artisan selection of fresh cut flowers, all delivered directly to their door. The secondary goal here is that with each unique floristry kit, members will be building up their very own artisan floral pantry (I covet mine!!).

3. To introduce the same wonderful floral enthusiasts to the brilliantly talented network of floral artists that I've had the opportunity to work with over the years through Flutter. This beautiful network of tastemakers spans the world, each sharing their unique aesthetics, approaches and design techniques.

If you're a floral enthusiast like myself, I hope @the_floral_pantry will be a part of your floral journey this year!
