About Paper + Twine

Meet Your Florist – Beth

Beth has been crafting floral magic since December 2018, turning her lifelong love of flowers into a vibrant career. Inspired by her mother’s passion for gardening, she grew up surrounded by blossoms, developing a deep appreciation for nature’s beauty. Though she once dreamed of teaching, she now blends her love for education with florals, guiding guests through hands-on workshops where creativity blooms.

A proudly self-taught florist with six years of experience under a skilled mentor, Beth has refined her artistry through master-led workshops and countless training sessions. She has hosted over 150 floral workshops, each one unique and filled with joy. Beth says “I love seeing a smile blossom on someone’s face when they receive or create an arrangement, it’s pure magic.”

Beyond her floral journey, Beth spent years raising four children, who are now young adults. With a few off to college, she embraced the opportunity to focus on her passion. When she’s not arranging flowers or planning events, she loves traveling and spending time with her husband of 27 years—her greatest supporter and biggest fan.

My friend and I had a great night arranging summer roses at a Brandy Distillery in Chicago. Such a unique experience that I would definitely recommend.
