I was going to try to incorporate this post with the last about Nicolette but there was just too many amazing flowers to share. In the May issue of Domino, Nicolette also did the floral styling for a “In The Vase” piece using common vessels you can find around the house. Nicolette arranged some gorgeous small pieces in teacups, bottles, and bowls that you could easily create at home. To check out more visit: dominomag.com.

I kinda knew Nicolette was a floral designer (she also works at Domino) but I never knew that she made knock your socks off amazing and gorgeous arrangements. Nicolette was recently featured on Design*Sponge where Grace was equally impressed! I love the floppy romantic bouquets that incorporate just the right about of texture and color. Another great source I am filing away for when I get married. Absolutely stunning Nicolette! Check out more of Nicolette: nicolettecamille.com.
