I don’t remember where I first came across the blog housemartin. But I know I started reading it for home and design — it wasn’t until recently that I learned the author is also a freelance floral designer with amazing talent. I am not generally into flower pics — they all sort of look the same to me — but something about her designs appeals to me tremendously. I can’t stop admiring the photos on her blog! Here are a few favorites from the floral designs she has showcased in recent months :





Her floral design studio, Ink & Peat, is located in Portland, OR. She’ll also be starting a shop under that name in Spring 2008 — hope there’s Web shopping, ’cause I can’t wait to see it….
(P.S. Clearly I’m particularly slow, as I just discovered that both Mrs. Bee and Mrs. Lime already posted about Ink & Peat earlier this year. But you can never have too much inspirational eye candy!)
Oh I love that second one from the bottom! I’m using similar berries in my bouquet-I love the texture they bring. Great post:-) These are beautiful.
