About Gale:
As a small child I can remember always playing with my Mother’s flowers in her garden. I think my passion for the beauty of flowers comes from these wonderful memories. When I have heavily scented roses in the studio, I am a child again, romping through the gardens! That joy has been the fuel for my business and it’s evolution. I am a hopeless romantic at heart. I have always been artistic and creative . I love to repurpose every day items frequently incorporating them into my work. I have been a part of the creative design industry for over 20 years. I have had the opportunity and pleasure to gain knowledge and skills while working along side many Interior designers, artists and business owners. I held a position as a feature editor and design consultant for the DOVETALES antiques and home magazine for 4 years. This was an incredibly creative process in setting the stage for photo shoots and contributing creative ideas for feature stories. Some of my work has graced the pages of Dovetales and other magazines.
About Sweetferns:
My love of working with fresh and silk flowers as an artistic medium choice led me to starting Sweetferns. I found placing color combinations and textures together intriguing. It was this talent that directed me to a career offering flower service from wedding parties to ceremony and reception décor. This has been my major focus over the past several years, growing into custom silk work for businesses, designers and public clients. Working from the intimate setting of the studio has proven very successful.
