Welcome to Nancy's Corner: What's Blooming!

Hello, and welcome to the very first post of Nancy’s Corner! This little space is where I’ll be sharing all things floral, living, and lovely—from tips to keep your flowers fresher longer to fun ways to use plants in your décor. Think of it as your cozy corner to relax, find inspiration, and maybe even learn a thing or two about the magic of flowers.

Before we dive in, let me introduce myself properly:

Hi, I’m Nancy! A florist, plant enthusiast, wife, mom to four amazing (and occasionally flower-bumping) kids, and co-founder of Twigs Florals. My husband Patrick and I started this family-run business back in 2018 with a simple mission: to spread happiness through the beauty of flowers. Whether it’s a single bloom in a bud vase or an elaborate arrangement for a special event, we believe flowers have a way of turning everyday moments into extraordinary ones.

A Little About Twigs Florals

Twigs Florals is deeply rooted in the relaxed charm of our San Diego surf town home. Our designs are whimsical, playful, and grounded in nature—think soft purples, fresh greens, and a little coastal flair. Every piece we create is a celebration of Mother Earth, brought to life with premium, locally sourced blooms and a whole lot of love.

Of course, running a floral business is never short of excitement! (Pro tip: when you’re racing to finish an arrangement and trip over a box of vases, just call it "artistic flair.") Our four kids—Samantha, Patrick, Parker, and Sydney—have grown up surrounded by flowers, succulents, and a home that’s always buzzing with creativity. They’ve even been known to lend a hand with a boutonniere or centerpiece now and then.

What to Expect Here

Now, let’s talk about this blog! My hope is that Nancy’s Corner becomes your go-to for:

• Tips to make your flowers last longer and your plants thrive (yes, even if you don’t have a green thumb).
• Creative ideas for decorating with blooms and greenery, from seasonal table arrangements to full-on holiday vibes.
• San Diego inspiration, like the best places to explore and hidden gems that inspire our designs.
• Behind-the-scenes peeks into the floral world at Twigs, including funny mishaps and little moments of joy.

And, of course, I’ll keep you in the loop about new Twigs Florals products and launches. (Spoiler alert: if you haven’t seen our fall wreaths and pumpkin spice arrangements yet, you’re in for a treat!) - See here!

Let’s Stay Connected

While Twigs Florals is an online shop, we occasionally host private classes at our studio for those looking to learn, laugh, and create something beautiful. Keep an eye out for announcements! In the meantime, you can browse our latest designs on our website or drop us a message—we’d love to help you bring a little floral magic into your life.

Here’s to finding joy in every petal!

Warmly,

Nancy
