About Blooms
Our Story
Blooms was envisioned in 2015 by Elizabeth Blaikie. As the eldest daughter of Bob, she grew up in the greenhouses of Lancaster Gardens, learning the difference between a marigold and a petunia from a young age. Her interest in art and design and all things beautiful grew with age. After graduating from Wentworth with a degree in architecture, she ended up focusing on building her family.
Now, with her daughter in school and the itch to put her design skills back to use, Blooms has become the perfect combination of her interest in nature, her mad crafting skills, and her keen eye for design.
"I love how every celebration brings out something new, and can't wait to bring your unique vision to life. By letting the seasons and flowers guide me, I am able to provide one-of-a-kind arrangements and floral decor for any occasion." -Liz Blaikie
Whether you simply need an assortment of succulent favors or dream of Pinterest worthy peonies on every surface, Blooms can help!
Our Philosophy
Blooms was started with the idea to bring another option to floral decor. In a business based on ephemeral beauty, our focus is on being as eco-friendly and budget savvy as possible, while still providing high quality products and custom designs.
Our practice includes:
-
Sourcing local, seasonal, farm direct or certified sustainably grown flowers
-
Recycling vessels and plants through our rental program
-
Mixing in homegrown, seasonal, potted plants and arrangements to ensure some décor will last long after the party
-
Crafting and DIY supply services, advice and inspiration
-
Servicing the local Massachusetts and New England community, never affiliated with national wire services
-
Ordering fresh cut flowers on an as-needed, made-to-order basis only, reducing waste
-
Composting all stems, leaves and floral waste, never thrown in the trash
