You might find the designs from 'Eco Flower' to be some of the prettiest flower bouquets you've ever seen, but you'll be surprised to discover that they aren't flowers at all; in fact, all the designs by the florist are crafted from reclaimed or sustainable materials. Founded by Meagan Chapman in Utah, 'Eco Flower' came about when the entrepreneur came across a wooden flower while vacationing. From here, the idea of sustainable bouquets that could be enjoyed for ages longer than traditional flowers was born and the rest, as they say, is history.
Aside from many of the designs from 'Eco Flower' being made from sustainable resources, many bouquets also feature upcycled accents like brooches or pinecones for an additional touch of whimsy. Best of all, designs from 'Eco Flower' feature inviting scents like Egyptian lavender or Japanese cherry blossom to let you enjoy the aroma of real flowers without the associated waste.
