Bonjour, I’m Blair!

Mignonette Flowers was born from a longing to return to the simple, elegant pleasures of life — the kind I came to know and love during the years I spent living in France.

There, I learned the joy of a few fresh-cut blooms in a vase, an afternoon goûter, the reverence for local “terroir” — what’s grown, gathered, and cherished in each unique corner of the country. Whether it’s flowers, cheese, wine, or traditions, this gentle honoring of the everyday left a lasting impression on me.

After years in the fast-paced world of advertising, I longed for something slower — something grounded in beauty, seasonality, and the joy of creating with my hands. Flowers offered the perfect intersection of creativity, storytelling, and the client care I’ve always loved.

That longing became Mignonette — a floral design studio shaped by quiet elegance and everyday romance. Inspired by overgrown garden paths, sun-warmed linens, café tables set with care, and the gentle rhythm of a slower life, we create florals that feel like memories: poetic, personal, and deeply felt.
