Carla Wingett is the founder of Idlewild Floral, a boutique floral design company based in California that works exclusively with dried and preserved flowers. After working for ten years as a wedding florist, she began to look for a solution to the waste inherent in fresh flowers and found as much beauty and versatility in dried flowers. Idlewild has worked with William Sonoma and Food 52, and Carla’s work has been published in Food & Wine Magazine, Martha Stewart, Dwell, Architectural Digest, and Forbes. Before becoming a florist, she worked as an artist, organic farmer, landscape designer, and interior stylist, and she brings a combination of all these loves into her work.
