Fashion Week and STEM!


            





Check out our latest accomplishment of the week!  So STEM was so thrilled to be invited back to design the floral pieces for EXPOSE.  EXPOSE is an amazing event where new hot fashion labels get to show off their new lines and get "Exposed" to the media and press. This time back I decided that I wanted to incorporate EXPOSES logo, which is a big red apple.  I dreamt about this apple all week long, thinking and contemplating how I could construct the perfect apple to be the centerpiece of the event.  Three hours later and my vision came true and there stood my 35 pound apple!  I was so excited to try something different than just designing flowers in a vase.  I also submerged 50 red apples in the vases to really help enhance that beautiful dark red color palette.  To make the arrangement look a bit more funky I wrapped black and silver aluminum wire around the apples, it really finished off the look. This was such a fun and creative challenge, I can't wait to design more objects out of flowers! Constructing objects out of flowers is such a fresh and bold idea for company parties and events, I will recommend this all the time!

Fresh & Fashionable Arrangement



















       Love this arrangement that we created today.  It was delivered to a new high end clothing store in the Bowery District that just opened.  The colors, crystals, and various textures of the flowers used, set off a sexy yet fun appeal, just the type of arrangement STEM loves to create! 
Plus white anemones are my personal favorite, they are the white flower with the bold black center.  I like to think of them as a sophisticated and grown up Gerber Daisy.

STEM NYC's New Website

I am beyond excited to have STEMs newly designed website up and running!  A big thanks to Kelly Campbell(a very talented and patient web designer) from Liqui-Site Designs.  We worked very hard together designing the site, I wanted the website to just spill over with the vibe of STEM and I think it was a success.  It has been a lot of fun compiling all of the photos from all of the 2008 brides & special events that STEM had the honor of designing flowers for.  More photos, press, and testimonials will be filling STEMs website in the weeks to come!
