Love Notes ❤

Ali helped me *be* an artist!
"She empowered me to release the judgment of if my work was "good" or "right." I came away with a few really cool paintings and have since used one to display different affirmations on my desk! Can't wait to tap into my creativity more with Ali!"

Feeling SUPER empowered
"Ali’s art and floral workshops were such a nice change from many of the virtual workshops out there. First off, it was so professionally executed and secondly I left the workshop feeling super empowered to explore the creative side I rarely let out. After the flower workshop I ended up buying flower shears and now visit the grocery store weekly to create new arrangements. I used to be so intimidated by floral arranging and feel so much more prepared and excited to arrange and gift flowers. I also love how Ali intermixes history within the workshop making it super educational as we learn and create."
—Emily Merrell, Community Curator & Business Coach, Six Degrees Society

Confident to mix and match flowers
"Before Ali's grocery store flower arranging class, I'd spent my life buying random bunches of flowers, trimming the tips and popping them into a vase. And feeling like I'd wish I'd known how to make them look better. After her class, I now feel totally confident to mix and match flowers at the store, get a little adventurous with different types and styles, and know exactly how to arrange them to look professionally put together. Why didn't I have this fun and useful skill sooner?!"
