April 27, 2015 by Lynn Freeman

There’s a pretty trend in corsages for proms this year. Our designers are using luxurious double-faced satin ribbon to tie the corsage on the wrist. This is instead of those old-fashioned velcro straps or lace stretchy elastic bands. Here’s a photo: We used one fully open Vendella rose and manipulated the petals to reflex, and […]

August 11, 2014 by Lynn Freeman

June is a traditional month for weddings, and this year Martin’s had more than usual. One bride came to us at the last minute, only two weeks before the wedding date.

Brilliant Yellow Floral Designs for Your Brilliant Mom

May 2, 2014 by Lynn Freeman

Yellow roses, gerbera and orchids in a stylish design

Some people just love yellow. Some people especially love yellow after a long, gray winter. We’ve taken that longing for the sun, and interpreted it through these two floral arrangements. First, we have Solar Flair: It’s a little hard to see in the photo, but this is designed in a smooth beige ceramic bowl that’s […]

Hot pink, purple and green design

We just love the powerful colour combination in this set of arrangements! The first design is called Radiant Beauty: The vase is beautiful, high quality Polish glass.
