I know I should be telling you a story of how I first fell in love with flowers, but that is not why I retired from my career in fashion design to become a floral designer.  I am here in service, with flowers being my chosen medium to intuit how to add wonderment and intention to life's most meaningful moments.  I love Pinterest and Instagram and all the pretty design boards, but my ultimate inspiration is you, our client. 

Summer Robbins Flowers was founded in May 2015, after my nearly 20 years as a designer in New York City.  I chose Bend first, because it is a wonderful place to raise my boys, and secondly because it is where I found the community to create, root, and grow my business exclusively through word of mouth referrals.  

When I'm not in the studio creating or on my laptop designing and running SRF, I am with my two little boys and partner happily living a very homebody life surrounded by art and books, yummy smells of food cooking in the kitchen, binge-watching home design shows, reading at least 3 books at the same time, listening to podcasts, and daydreaming about the next trip or getaway.
