Mayesh Design Star: Restaurant Dried Floral Installation

In her first video, Hafsa creates a dried floral installation for Lemon Press, a local Nantucket eatery featuring organic health foods, juices, craft cocktails, and more. While our past two designers have done primarily wedding & events, we're excited to switch gears a bit with Hafsa and talk more about floral design within your community, and partnering with local businesses for a different approach to building & expanding your business.
Hafsa discusses the importance of creating an installation that fits the setting & thinks about its audience, and how choosing long-lasting (or forever lasting) products, like dried & preserved products, will create the most bang for everyone's buck. For the design, she starts by creating a "chicken wire burrito" as the structural base & form, and then attaches all of her product with zip ties.
Share with us your thoughts on Hafsa's video in the comments!

I really like that Mayesh feature different Stars with such varied levels of experience and education. By watching Hafsa Lewis I feel so inspired. I love the fact that she's self taught and trusts her own creativity. And it is absolutely gorgeous. Thank you soooo much !!!!!

How beautiful! You are an artist! I’m trying to do a Christmas floral around the front door, so I am so grateful for this video. I became interested after a trip to London. The floral doorways in Covent Garden are amazing!
