Project Description

Our mission is to create our dream space where we will design our beautiful flower arrangements, as well as host events for the community. These events will include kids flower birthday parties, showers, workshops, art shows, and many more fun get-togethers.

For over a decade we ran two successful brick and mortar shops in San Francisco. When the pandemic came along, we faced significant challenges, leading us to close our retail shop and downsize. However, we've weathered numerous struggles that all small businesses encounter and are ready to rebuild ourselves and thrive once again.

Any funds we receive will go toward setting up our new space and towards operational expenses to help us succeed in this new phase of our business. Thank you for considering donating to our Floralounge fund! We truly appreciate your support and will express our gratitude by paying it forward with flowers.

The Campaign FAQs

How big is your new studio space?
Our new space is 1000 sq ft! For reference, our previous shops and shared warehouse were around 400 sq ft, so we will finally have room to spread out a bit!

Tell us more about these events?
We plan to host kids flower parties where we guide children to make cute flower arrangements, throw petals in the air, have a dance party, "sell" flowers and take pictures at our kids flower cart station, and have fragrance and texture experiences to fill the senses.

We've also missed the in-person connection with our customers. While it doesn't make sense for us to have a walk-in retail shop at this time, we want to invite clients, old and new, into our world to play with flowers, surrounded by beauty, and have some fun.

Where exactly would our donation be going?
Some examples of things we aim to acquire for our new space include an industrial sink, shelving, a record player, speakers, a stylish velvet couch and chairs, a rug, disco balls and/or reasonably priced chandeliers, a neon sign, office supplies, a new printer, and a laptop.

For operational expenses, we need everything from new business cards to extra staff, and basically everything in between!
