Started in 2022, I’m so in love with my progress 🥹

2025/1/15 Edited to

... Read moreSince starting my floral journey in 2022, I've learned to view flowers not just as plants, but as intricate sculptures that convey emotions and stories. The world of floristry offers a blend of creativity and artistry, allowing for unique floral arrangements that can elevate any event or personal space. Notably, Chicago's floral scene is vibrant, with talented florists who inspire every aspiring floral designer. Through my exploration of floral arrangements, I delved into video creation, capturing the beauty of my designs and sharing my experiences with others. Video not only showcases the artistry of floristry but also serves as a medium to connect with those who share a love for flowers and creative expression. With each arrangement, I've documented my process, highlighting tips on selecting flowers, understanding color palettes, and arranging blooms beautifully. Additionally, I explored collaborations with brands like LIN+GOETZ, which focus on clean, authentic beauty products. Integrating such collaborations into my journey expands my creative horizons and supports a well-rounded artistic narrative. By sharing these valuable experiences, I hope to inspire others to embrace their passions and push the boundaries of their creativity in floral arts and beyond.

Not all great progress ends in crazy weight loss
This got a lot of hate when I first posted it one of my groups because my progress pic doesn’t end with weight loss… now reposting a year later, it didn’t end at all. When I first posted this a year ago, I posted because I was proud of my bulk, even when I was soo scared of gaining weight.
