Ep. 86: Paulina Nieliwocki (Blue Jasmine Floral)
Manage episode 302692825 series 1525922
Today we’re visiting with Paulina Nieliwocki, owner of Blue Jasmine Floral in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey. Paulina was a high school language arts teacher and translator looking for a new adventure that challenged her while still feeding her creative soul. Remembering her love of flowers as a young girl, she made a plan, took a risk, opened Blue Jasmine Floral and never looked back. Her love of flowers and teaching are contagious. Grab a drink and join us as we talk about:
- how she managed the quick turnaround between resigning her teaching job and opening a flower shop
- her go-to floral design principles
- the blooms she considers to be "the most special"
- the mechanics behind her recognizable compote arrangements
- how she successfully juggled a retail flower shop and an wedding/event business
- how she designed her studio space
- how she restructured her business during the pandemic
- how she trains her staff to design in the Blue Jasmine aesthetic
- one thing she'd like to see change for the floral design profession
- a niche she's hoping someone will take advantage of by starting a business to help wedding/event florists (hint hint!)
