Living Planters

Melding fresh flowers with living plants in stunning pieces that thrive beyond your typical flower arrangement and keep bringing you joy through the seasons.

Hello, welcome to Willow & Archer, where you will find all things inspired by nature and made with love. Discover handmade live planters, seasonal fresh flower creations and botanical stylings. I incorporate upcycled materials, stems from my very own farmette in Evanston and locally foraged items when possible.  

Creative Offerings

Botanical Styling

With a passion for plants and eye for design I love creating custom installations. Its a chance for me to think outside of the box and create something totally unique.

Hello

My sister Keiya gave me my roots in the garden. I grew up helping her — learning, growing, and creating in nature. Plants and flowers have been a fire in my heart ever since. They fill me with whimsy, inspiration, and hope.

Rooted in the earth, my garden has been my dearest friend and a source of grounding as I heal from chronic Lyme disease. Now, I hope to share it — and my creative pursuits — with others.

And so, Willow & Archer was born. Willow was a nickname lovingly given to me by my sister, who has since passed. Archer is the middle name of another great love of my life — my son and my garden sidekick.

Our Farmette

Our little garden in Evanston is a patch of earth where dreams take root. Since 2020, we’ve tended flowers, vegetables, and herbs — and we hope one day to open our gates for garden tea times and creative workshops.
