I had the great pleasure of designing with my flower friend Susan Mcleary at the Detroit Institute of Arts this last Tuesday.  Susan is the proud owner of Passionflower Events a wedding and event floral studio just like mine.  She and I travel to NYC together once a year to learn from the masters at the Chapel Designer conference  you may have seen my post on this years trip here: http://sweetpeafloraldesign.blogspot.com/2013/03/chapel-designers-day-3-with-ariella.html

And We also teach floral design classes together at BLOOM florist collective in Ann Arbor a little flower school we started in 2011.

The Designs included queen protea, quicksand roses, astilbe, privet berries, scabiosa pods, GIANT green hanging amaranthus, peony, red wood branches & sweet peas of course !!
