How I got started.......


HOW I GOT STARTED.........

I was admiring arrangements at a reception party for a friend. I decided to ask the hotel staff what actually happens to the flowers. Do they move them to the lobby for the enjoyment of the guests? I was told "oh no, we don't keep them." So an idea was born; why not ask to take the flowers back to my shop, redesign them & give them back to the community. Why not? Who wouldn't like fresh flowers especially in a nursing home dining room or a local school lobby. That's how "Vermont recycles Flowers "got started. With the generosity of flower donations and a little talent from Chappell's Florist designers and local volunteers, we are sharing flowers, still full of life, with members of our community who will really enjoy them. recycleflowers@yahoo.com

WEDDING ARTISTRY "GREEN FLORIST" CHAPPELLS Burlington Vermont designs destination wedding and RECYCLES FLOWERS TO CHEER ALLENWOOD RESIDENTS

Rave reviews from the bride, Mothers, and attendants for the spectacular bouquets designed by Diane, floral artist @ chappell's. The destination Vermont wedding featured sunflowers, chartreuse hydrangeas, purple lisianthus, cobalt delphinium, calla lilies, and sensational "Stella" garden roses. Maple sugaring buckets flowed with garden beauties, curly willow wedding arch with sweeping forest greenery, the red barn countrified with sweet hydranga wreaths, and the horse & carriage draped with summer blooms.....heavenly day. After the ceremony, the bride donated the flowers to chappell's for "rebirth" and recycling - the flowers were arranged in vases and brought to Allenwood senior living, S. Burlington, Fletcher allen Hospital ICU waiting rooms, Burlington  vt. and the Arbors senior memory care in Shelburne, vt. where the flowers bring joy to those living there. Thank you to the bride and her family for the donation.
