My Story

MY STORY

Long before Gardenbug Designs became a creative studio, it began in my garden.

Flowers have always held special meaning in my life. After losing my mother in 2013, gardening became a way to stay connected to the memories we shared—shopping for flowers, planting together, and watching each season unfold. What began as a source of comfort eventually grew into a passion for creating beauty with flowers year-round.

 

Living in northern Minnesota means gardens spend much of the year resting beneath snow. During those long winter months, I discovered the world of floral design and found a new creative outlet that allowed me to continue working with the colors, textures, and inspiration I loved most.

What started as curiosity quickly became something more.

Today, Gardenbug Designs has grown into a studio centered around florals, greenery, ribbon, and the materials that inspire creativity. Whether I’m designing finished pieces, sourcing beautiful supplies, or helping others bring their own ideas to life, the goal remains the same: to create something meaningful, beautiful, and lasting.

The garden may have been where the story began, but creativity is what continues to guide it forward.
