The L2 Floral Arrangement program
Friday, October 8th, 2021
On Friday, October 8th “the Lisas” were in town with the Sippican Woman’s Club. The L2Florals team of Lisa Larkin and Lisa Tovin have been together for over 5 years after having met at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston Associates Program. Their love of flowers, art and home guided them to create L2Florals. Inspired by nature and their passion for floral artistry the Lisas bring their creative talent to each and every arrangement and bouquet they produce.
The Lisas demonstrated and assembled three Fall themed arrangements, one of which the club will supply the stock consisting of local gathered materials – hydrangea, grasses, berries, maybe even what some might consider “weeds”
