portland floral designer: anna mara

Thanks to {frolic} I found out about Anna Mara, another wonderful floral designer based in Portland. Anna's bouquet (below) is featured on the cover of the Winter 2008/2009 Portland Bride & Groom, and what a fresh collection of flowers it is! Don't miss Chelsea's arrangement as well.

I think the quote on Anna's about page pretty much sums up how I feel about life. Check out her blog for updates on current events. Thanks Anna!

portland: ink&peat

I just wanted to give a big congrats to Pam, from housemartin, for opening her new floral and homewares shop, Ink&Peat. You can see some stunning images of the space, and all that fills it at housemartin. Image from Ink&Peat portfolio.

designer, stylist, blogger: chelsea fuss

It seems like blogging is fast becoming the most exciting infotainment medium - I'm just watching The Food Lover's Guide on The National Geographic channel, and it's a whole episode devoted to food bloggers... I never knew about Chez Pim or David Lebovitz, but now I'm on to them! Hey, how 'bout a show on design bloggers?

So, today I'd like to feature the work of a great blogger, stylist and floral designer Chelsea Fuss. Based in Portland, Chelsea writes {frolic!}, a beautiful and inspiring read. Don't forget to check out her portfolio to see more images like the ones below...




Thanks Chelsea, maybe I'll see you in Portland sometime soon. For more floral blogging visit another Portlander, Pam at housemartin, and New Yorker Sarah at Saipua.
