For the Love of...Amy Merrick

Recently we discovered An Apple a Day, the delightful blog of New York based floral designer Amy Merrick. And boy oh boy, didn't we just gasp!




From the rural musings told from her family's ancient and wonderfully ramshackle summer house Elmwood in New Hampshire...




Designed by her descendants, still owned and used by her family today







...to the city-bound observations from the everyday....

Oh how I wish we had a local beach like this where we could just pop down and gather some amazing sea-roughed glassware!


colours, designs...I don't even know where to start with this!

Brooklyn Botanic Gardens and a FIELD of bluebells. And we all know how I like these!

She even has foxgloves growing on her fire escape..too much!!

...to her boundless talent with making pretty flowers and greenery look even prettier!








Her obvious talent dovetails neatly into the open and thoughtful tone of her blog. We spent hours meandering - and gasping - through the archives discovering new plants we didn't even know we loved and places we've never been.

And we highly recommend you do the same!
