Blogging Bootcamp - Manhattan Beach, CA


Road Trip to Manhattan Beach
After a busy wedding weekend, we were SO ready to hit the open road.  Just us, Tom Petty, and the promise of mojitos on the beach!




After a little beach air, shopping, and some fantastic Tuscan wine at Mangiano's, we were ready for Liene Steven's Blogging Bootcamp at the Shade Hotel (the following day).     



After the blogging workshop, we got to cocktail with some of the most fantastic ladies in the industry.  Left to right - Brit with WeddingPR, Carissa with JL Designs, and yours truly, Teresa Wilson.

Flowershop Treasures: 2nd Edition.

Thanks largely in part to our new Twitter following, I know we've got lots of newbies following our blog.  If any of you out there are new to Shop Speak, Welcome!  


The shop is swimming with exciting new product.  As promised, I want to give those of you who can't make it in to the shop a peek at some of our killer new finds.


Clementine
By Dayna Decker
$72


A work of art in itself, the Clementine candle is masterfully crafted. The hand-blown glass vessel is richly infused with scents of Orange Flower, Neroli, Honey, Black Tea & Cassis Musk.   
The EcoWood Wick blends the elements to create a light, clean scent.  Perfect for summer.


Gold Tipped Porcelain Urn
$250

 
One of the most beautiful pieces in the shop.  I think it speaks for itself.





Orson Wells at Work
by Jean-Pierre Berthome & Thomas

An in-depth , behind-the-camera survey of the work of one of the world's most acclaimed cinematic visionaries.  Under appreciated in his lifetime, Orson Welles (1915 - 1985) was an exceptional filmmaker and star of one of MY alltime favorite movies, Jane Eyre.  This is an awesome addition to your library or coffee table collection.

They say when one door closes, another one opens...

The beginning of summer is somewhat of a double-edged sword for a florist.  While they wave goodbye to their spring favorites (such as Hyacinth, Tulips, Anemones, Ranunculus, Hellaboros, and Blooming Branches), the most sought after flower of all is on it's way into Phoenix.  I am talking of none other than the indisputable champion of the floral world...


The Peony.
 
Be cool, my babies.  The Girls have more than enough Peonies to satisfy.  

My affinity for the Peony has grown into a bit of an obsession.  I have rattled on about this divine little Bud of Joy for the past six months, growing more eager 
(and annoying) as May approached.  After chasing down the most fabulous Peony grower I could possibly find, I placed my order.

 OUR order, sorry.  

I need to be constantly reminded that the Peonies in the shop are actu
ally here for our Clients, not just me.  Unfortunately, I can't just fill my pool with 
them and live there forever.  Le sigh.  
The likeliness that my nose will be surgically removed from a peony by the end of the season has reached a terrifying high.  I'll be sure and keep you posted.

 Here are a few pictures to really get you in the Peony Zone.
