Life Lately in Charleston, SC through my Love of Flowers

Posted by Ali Powell on 6/21/17 11:16 AM

Charleston has been a dream so far. I moved here at the beginning of March. I needed change. I needed a fresh start. I needed something NEW and different. I had lived in Boston for 11 years before that and just had gotten out of a 6 year relationship. My job would allow me to move here and work remote (which that is a whole other topic). I started Fetes de Fleurs becaus I love being creative with flowers and greenery. I want to expose more people to the joy that flowers can bring you. I don't just mean the joy of flower arrangements.

I think we all have creativity inside of us and flowers are an easy way to let that creativity shine.
