Valentine's Day Pop-Up Shop at Rebecca Shepherds

Happy Weekend to you!
We had a fabulous time this weekend at Rebecca Shepherd's Flower Shop in Park Slope where the Valentine's Day Pop-Up Shop was held. So many glittering and tasty treasures! Thank you to everyone for coming out and toasting to love and hand made gifts! Here are a few moments captured of the vender's displays and ephemeral shopping experience.



Rebecca Shepherd Floral Design and Adornments designed stunning non traditional bouquets to give your loved one. One of the sweet votive arrangements followed me home...





Lulu's Confections created divine truffle bites. Rye whiskey was a crowd favorite.



A stunning view in the shop, the bedecked ordainment tree. Lisa Bodo's Magical Ornaments and Amulets. Lisa fabricated these small shrine like treasures for the eyes and mind, glimmering in crystals and provocative fashion. You can see more of her work here.







A few of the beautiful 3d and acrylic necklaces and earrings DESiGNERiCA displayed. I love Erica's work policy of designing sustainable, beautiful modern jewelry.





My favorite treat of the day!! Free hot chocolate in your gift bag. Heaven. Thank you Erin of IM Handmade.


A few more treats on IM Handmade's table, for wearing.....


Sally Tseng also set up a clothing rack near the back of the shop with some sassy jackets, shirts and dress shirts.
And Papertopias!
