About
Hi there! My name is Jessie Griffitts and I have lived in the Coeur d' Alene, Idaho area for ten years now. My husband was born and raised here and I am an Oregon-born girl, raised in the South, that made it back to the Northwest--where I love to be! We have four kids, 2 dogs, lots of extended family, and absolutely love living here!
The story of my background with flowers and floral design starts with my grandma and grandpa, who loved to garden and had a special gift for all things botanical. They passed down that gift to my mom, who in turn, passed it down to me! She would teach me the names of the plants and flowers in our yard, in her garden, on walks together, and while camping in the woods of Georgia. I come from a large family and as my older siblings got married, I would also be my mom's assistant making floral arrangements, flower crowns, corsages, and boutonnieres for all of their weddings.
As an adult, I have arranged flowers, made bouquets and flower crowns, or decorated cakes, for various special occasions for family, but it has blossomed into a passion that I want to share with others! I have completed many hours of online flower education classes to help bring more knowledge and skill to my designs and I LOVE getting to be creative to make unique pieces for each person or event. In essence, I believe flowers create joy and I can't wait to be a part of it!
As for where dancing comes into all of this--I was introduced to the world of dance through my daughter's love for recreational and competitive dance! One of my favorite things to do before each of her recitals was to make a custom bouquet for her as a special gift for her big night! Soon, I began having other parents asking me where I bought my bouquets, et voilà--the idea was born to start my own business and bring my passion to the dance community. I am so happy to share this exciting new adventure with you and for getting to be a tiny part of spreading joy and creating special memories!
