Behind the Scenes at the Intimate Install Intensive

June 1, 2021

In February 2021, we hosted the first ever Intimate Installation Intensive for floral designers in Nashville, TN. We had 6 sweet attendees and together we created 3 unique installations. Mary Love shared all her secrets to having good mechanics for whatever installation you may be creating. (Hint, it often involves fishing line or command strips!) To top it off, we brought in some incredible local vendors for a styled shoot at the end of the day – a huge thank you to everyone who was involved! Stay tuned for another blog featuring the final products, but for now enjoy some behind the scenes to get a flavor of the day.
