How
did you start your business: I
always knew that I wanted to have a career where I could be creative and work
with colour and design, I was
always aware that I would not be happy working behind a desk. I have studied at
Master Degree in home science and have completed my Certificates in Floristry
and during this time I immersed myself in the industry. I began work experience
and quite honestly, I fell in love. For years after this I happily worked in
other florists but six months ago I knew it was my time – I wanted to begin my
own journey with a boutique studio that represented me. A store that celebrated
my passion, aesthetic and values – my own vision. And today, here we are! In
many ways I am beginning
that love affair with flowers all over again, this time as my own boss.
What
is your design aesthetic?
I love soft, romantic designs. The prettier, more feminine and more girly the
better. I’m an art deco and vintage lover so a bouquet that celebrates that
aesthetic embellished with a charming little buckle or broach or bit of fancy
is my idea of perfection!
What
inspires you?
As a florist, inspiration is everywhere! At Pookal Store our inspiration is
drawn from nature. We love to celebrate colour, form and seasonality. We like
to create designs that allow already beautiful products to simply sing.
We follow trends from overseas of course are guided by what our customers like
and request – we are lucky in finding them to have a lovely taste point.
In general, I take creative inspiration from art, interior design, music,
fashion and colour.
What
are the trends, flowers and colours that are unique to your region?
India has some amazing natives and these are enjoying resurgence with the more
progressive clients in both bridal bouquets and day-to-day
designs. Peonies are the most requested bridal flower for us at the moment;
unfortunately we spend lots of time educating brides that they are not
available year round! I believe yellow will be an emerging colour trend in
2011.
I guess one of the biggest and most interesting differences between the Indian
wedding industries is the use of a planner.
Are
you retail shop, studio, warehouse or home based?
We are a small boutique shop, we are located within a garden centre that also
hosts a restaurant / café.
Do
you offer any additional services in addition to floral design?
order
online flowers, wedding decorators, online florist, online cake
delivery, midnight cake delivery , flowers online delivery in Chennai
What
does your toolbox look like?
It’s a stainless steel tradies (tradesman’s) toolbox from the hardware store.
Its designed with compartments to be very tidy but I can’t claim that it is.
It’s jam packed with my knife, scissors, secateurs, wires in a cloth binding,
embellishments, a hot glue gun, double sided tape, parafilm, rubber
bands,sticky tape, deodorant – I could go on but I think I should stop here!
What’s
your favourite flower?
Roses. They are such a soft, pretty flower, and they remind me of
spring.
Please feel free to
visit our site www.pookal.in we’d also love to hear from any other
florists around the world who are blogging
– our wedding industry colleagues the photography community have really
embraced one another globally and worked hard to develop a positive
blogging culture – I think the best and most progressive in floristry should be
doing the same! There’s so many advantages we can capitalise on together.
