& Painter, a vintage emporium on Columbia Road, in east London,

for Flower Market: Botanical Style at Home is the wide variety of
seasonal plants and flowers available right outside her shop.

philosophy Using salvage and reclaimed objects, vintage glassware
and ceramics as props and backdrops, Flower Market is brimming with
texture, pattern and exciting and inspiring ways to group and
display flowers, plants and succulents. In Flower Market: Botanical
Style at Home Michelle draws on her design experience, playing with
shape, colour and composition to create stunning combinations
