Robinson Gardens



Wow! What a day! Friday May 142010 is a day I wont soon forget. The Friends of Virginia Robinson Gardens put on a great show. The house was decked out in the most amazing florals, it was awe inspiring! Some of the most creative whimsical floral designs I've seen. It was great to meet some of LA's most talented Floral Designers who's work I have been admiring for many years, Marc Byrd, of Eventful Floral Design, Eddie Zaratsian of Tic-Tock Couture Floral and Ricardo Luna of Luna Gardens to name a few.

We had the great pleasure of decorating the Kitchen Pantry It was is very small space, basically a walk through from the Dining area to the Kitchen, so I know we needed to make it pop & I think we accomplished our goal.......




We were situated next to the kitchen as I said, which was decorated by Anthropology with Holly Floral. What a great place to spend the day. The Girls for Anthro decorate as only the girls from Anthro can. Every time I walk in to that store I just want to move right in.
Holly Flora made this amazing cat out of succulents. I have never seen anything like it & I was obsessed with it! It was to bad Holly wasn't there to hear the raves about her designs, She had a wedding booked that day, every one LOVED what she created.

It was truly an amazing day. The Ladies all decked out in there garden finery, the fabulous food, the weather was perfect & the estate is a stunning place as it is. I was honored to be part of the day.

More form Robinson Gardens Benefit Garden Tour




WOW! What an amazing day! (a very long day!) It was such a pleasure to be at this event. I met so many talented and cool people I just have to share.
We decorated the Kitchen Pantry with a melange of yellow cauliflower, artichokes, cymbidum & james story orchids with a touch of butterscotch treats among other delicatables.
We got a GREAT response! I was overwhelmed by the compliments on our designs.

Jen Johnson of Antropologie & Vintage Home Grown makes these wonderful macrame plant holders. She hung in the kitchen windows. They are so sweet and they remind me of my childhood.

We were right next to the kitchen which was decorated by Antropologie & Holy Flora. Antro always has the most amazing displays and the kitchen was no exception, it was really cool. The
Succulent covered cat by Holy Flora was by far my favorite thing at the house.


It was a day I wont soon forget and I want to thank the lovely ladies of The Friends of Robinson Gardens for including us in such a special event. Cheers to a job well done!
