We got a little teary writing this post. Today we come to you with a farewell love letter and a big thank you. It has been a wild two years! We are honored and so appreciative to have had the opportunity to share our floral projects and inspirations with... 0 Published 100+ days ago in

We just returned from our annual Yosemite getaway, and our minds are still frolicking in the sunny meadows and on shadowy forest paths. People often ask us where we get our ideas for different color palettes and texture combinations — here’s one pl... 0 Published 100+ days ago in

We’re taking a much needed break at the shop this week before we kick into the next round of weddings, so we finally had a little time to do a fun crafty project! We’ve caught the tie-dyeing bug (we have a party planned with the gals for later this mont... 0 Published 100+ days ago in

The past few weeks have been a bit of a blur. Wedding season has started with a bang, and we’ve been occupied with all sorts of fun photo shoots, field trips and shop plans (some changes coming soon at Prairie Collective!). We spend most of our day... 0 Published 100+ days ago in

We’ve made quite a few bouquets in our day. Along the way, we noticed a pattern had developed in all the bouquets that became our favorites. This week, we thought we’d share a little recipe that yields great results for a natural, garden-style bouquet ... 0 Published 100+ days ago in

We have always been a tad obsessed with the tiny worlds inside beautifully frosted sugar eggs. When Jill was a little girl, she got one every Easter and set it on her nightstand to peer into long after the holiday was over (much too long — once it even a... 0 Published 100+ days ago in

Spring is just on the horizon, but before winter winds down, we want to give a shout out to those cold-weather bloomers that keep us going: hellebores. Just because they’re tough, doesn’t mean they’ve compromised on looks. In addition to their a... 0 Published 100+ days ago in

This week’s color and texture palette was inspired by a photo-walk around our neighborhood. We strolled around noticing crinkled leaf buds, new flowers popping out and the remnants of winter (bare sticks and nests of briars) before they are covered... 0 Published 100+ days ago in

The weather around here has been a bit dry, and we’re not bragging . . . but also nice and warm. (We had temps in the sunny 70s last week!) Beautiful for us, but not the greatest mushroom weather. We went on a “Mushroom Madness” hunt last month when th... 0 Published 100+ days ago in

It’s rare that florists get to work a wedding where they create all of their designs on-site, and it’s even rarer for those same florists to get to stick around for cocktails and dancing. The fact that we got to do both last weekend was b... 0 Published 100+ days ago in
