Susan Sheppard-Knauff, Floral Designer, Artist, Avid Gardener
and Small Business Owner can also credit herself with design awards
from many Garden shows, The highlight of her awards was at
the 1991 NORTHWEST FLOWER AND GARDEN SHOW for her
outstanding mass dried floral design that took the
"Peoples Choice Awards" for four consecutive
days during the show (an accomplished never before held by another, and
still holds the record for these awards.) This arrangement also won
"The Director's Design Award and District
Awards." The entry for her decorated gift box,
(Decorated with... Yes you guessed it, "Dried Floral"), took another
First Place Award.
I want everything I use to look natural, this is important to me
and is what sets my designs apart from the everyday designs
that flood the marketplace. I use only the finest available
products, many of which I harvest myself, purchase from local
growers at the Farmer's Markets, or grow myself here on my five
acres. This personal selection of ingredients helps me keep
the quality at near perfection levels and ensures lasting
quality."
