When Tiffany Blake and George Fox decided to donate their wedding budget to a friend in need, creative and kindhearted vendors collaborated to help them achieve a day of their dreams that sacrificed nothing in style.

Please have a safe and happy weekend!

The inspiration for this design was the desire to take a no-longer-wanted object and transform it into something both fun and functional for the garden. Why throw something away when you can reuse it in the garden? Now what once was a rusted old chair without a seat is a whimsical planter whose foliage can change with the seasons.

I’m always searching for ‘rusty gold.’ I like incorporating salvaged items or architectural elements into my spaces. These once-forgotten relics can transform a garden and make it feel more personal.” –CHARLIE THIGPEN

At Resendiz Brother Protea Growers, in Rainbow, CA, the cliffs are steep…

and the flowers are hypnotic…

The place is unlike any “farm” we’re used to.  Rocky, dry, and so full of beauty….

At her chateau in the bucolic French countryside, artist Claire Basler paints sumptuous, extravagant work from arrangements she creates out of the gardens just beyond her window.

The artist’s arrangements from her gardens inspire her paintings, which are not realistic re-creations. Rather, she captures the flutter of a petal, the arch of a stem, and the colors of the sky.
