Verhalen Floral Studio

The Honeysuckle, Dandelion, Plantain and Clover fill the fields of our childhood. And yet somehow still beckon to be picked.

“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”
-Roald Dahl

HAPPY DERBY!!!

May your glass stay full and your facinator even more bountiful! Cheers!!!

WE STAND WITH UKRAINE

Giving these sunflowers the moment they deserve.

IKEBANA INSPIRED

Balance is a focus not easily harnessed. Ikebana style arrangements are the visual representation of the discipline and art of balance. To say we are inspired is an understatement, to say we have much yet to learn is a truth worthy of remembrance.

FLUTTERBIES AND FAIRY MAGIC

“Spring's first conviction is a wealth beyond its whole experience.”
- Emily Dickinson

THE NAMESAKE

When developing our new direction for the business, it was important for the name to truly reflect our every intention. Let us start with our inspiration.

Oil still life paintings such as this, titled "Vase of Flowers" by Jan Davidsz de Heem tell such intricate stories. These paintings use each visual inch to display life, death, reflections, seasons, and narratives that draw you further in with each viewing. Because of the deep inspiration these paintings evoke "Verhalen" seemed only fitting. Verhalen is Dutch for "stories" and what better way to sum up our motivation. Our hope is that each design and installation pulls you deeper into the narrative and evokes the beauty and complexities of your very own story. Thus Verhalen Floral Studio was born.

INTRODUCING...

For those who have been here from day one cheering on the beautiful florals and sweet treats; I want to extend the biggest thank you. Thank you for your support and enthusiasm for The PHLOUR Shop, we couldn’t have done it without you. This past year has been full of growth and revision. Learning the industry and collectively reviewing where we were and where we wanted to be. With the desire to grow, often pruning follows. As hard of a decision as it was, we have made the choice to set aside our croissants and pastries to focus our efforts and attention solely on our floral endeavors. We are excited for this new direction and felt led to have that reflected in our new name: Verhalen Floral Studio. I am excited to share our journey to this new namesake in the coming days, but for now we CELEBRATE!!!!!

🌾 IN THE MIDST 🌾

We put down the packing tape for just a second to create this mood board for the most important client, 🌼MY LITTLE SISTER🌼!!! So excited for her and her fiancé and all that is to come. In the midst of the chaos and cardboard there is still the need to create! So excited for October! It's going to be a month full of love💛💛 💛
