We're kicking off our new blog series, "Stockist Love", with the lovely Los Angeles based Twig & Twine, owned and curated by floral designer Heather Williams. T&T is one part floral shop - featuring stunning arrangements and botanicals for special events and everyday, as well as workshops - and one part retail boutique featuring artisanal goods carefully selected by Heather.
BALEEN: Where are you located?
T&T: Virgil Village but most people don't know where that is in Los Angeles so I often say the outskirts of Silver Lake or East Hollywood. We are an up-and-coming stretch on Virgil Street hopefully paving the way for more retail locations and eateries to open up.
B: What do you sell?
T: Twig & Twine is a retail flower and gift shop. We are a full service florist but also sell artisanal goods, unique gifts and home decor. Not only can you pick up a fresh flower arrangement for a birthday but also grab a small gift to go along with it.
B: What is the best part of owning your store?
T: I love the community aspect of owning a shop. My regulars are great and are very appreciative of my contribution to the neighborhood.
B: What's your favorite Baleen piece?
T: The Rose Gold U Shaped Earrings. Rose gold is my favorite and the simple yet unique design of the earrings are great.
B: What is your favorite ice cream flavor and/or pizza topping?
T: Impossible to choose just one but I can never say no to a good salted caramel ice cream.
B: Us too! Thanks Heather!!
