Flora and Fuego is…

Just a girl with a dream to make every day a little more beautiful than the next!

But seriously. I love making beautiful things that bring joy into every aspect of life. If it’s that wood flower crown that makes you feel like a queen at Costco or the wood flower bouquet that you’ll remember for the rest of your life and sits proudly on your sofa table- I’ve got your back. I believe in living in whimsey and loving every minute of this journey we are all on. Life is way too short to be boring! Let’s make it more fun together!

From when I was little girl, I wanted to be a designer. I grew up in the 90s and definitely bedazzled my fair share of jeans! You will see this love of sparkles in the ballroom dance dresses that are also sold as part of this shop. I love materials and playing with how they interact in the real world. I have a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering and it helps me combine aesthetic with function in all my work. I love to smile and dance is my life. Yes - while I’m not making “pet jewelry” I have a day job, but Flora and Fuego is where I bring my dreams to life.

I make all my wood flower designs from my home in Saint Paul, Minnesota. I’m a transplant by way of Atlanta, Georgia and grew up in Southern Virginia. As an OG southern girl - I know the power of a fierce wreath. As a new Minnesotan, I also know the importance of brining light and beauty into your home year round (especially in those never ending winter months).

Take a look at our current inventory and shop our wood flower designs or reach out and let’s make something beautiful together.

Come dream with me!
