✨ With so many new faces around here, I thought it was time to officially introduce myself.
Hi, I’m Alexa — a former banker turned florist 🌿 I traded spreadsheets for flowers to build a modern flower shop with a mama’s touch — elegant, intentional, and full of life. Now I spend my days arranging flowers and raising my two little boys — both dreams growing side by side 🩷
I grew up in Crystal Lake and I’m so happy to be raising my family here too. I attended the university of Iowa and got my degree from the business school in finance. My passion for business, gardening, & beekeeping sparked my start in floristry. I have served on several nonprofit organizations board of directors and still extremely passionate about giving back to our community! You may see me around giving out flowers to brighten a day or a local businesses counter 😘
Now the most important part, my support system. BOH would not exist without the incredible support of my family! My mom, Tracey, who has quite literally grown this business with me see day one! BOH wouldn’t be the same without her! My husband, Christian, who is our biggest supporter. He has supported this dream of mine since day one and has never doubted me! All of the family & friends who have helped watch my kids so I can work! And lastly, my two little boys who always patiently help me in the garden, sit at the shop while I work, ride in the car while I deliver! Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
Thank you to everyone who has supported our small business! It means the world to me. We can’t wait to see what the next 5 years brings! ✨
