Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Valen Ibarra. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Valen, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Innovation comes in all shapes, sizes and across all industries, so we’d love to hear about something you’ve done that you feel was particularly innovative.

Inventing the bouquet veil

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers

Hey my name is Valen (like Valentine’s Day) I’m the owner of Blumenhaus! I focus more on floral art, I’m not like your average florist I love mixing colors, textures and making all my designs look like they belong on another planet. I causally invented the bouquet veil and I’m always pushing boundaries with flowers. I fully believe when it comes to designing there shouldn’t be any rules and there is no right or wrong way. Flowers are my heart and soul

How did you build your audience on social media?

I built my following by really just being myself, the followers I have, have grown with me, I’m always interested in their opinions, their feedback and most importantly their business. I respect and love them so much. I’ve learned over time that people want to see YOU they want to see the ins and outs and see the authenticity. I share more than flowers I love sharing astrology, fashion and other things I’m into with my followers. Stay true to you, the weird things make you beautiful.

Can you talk to us about manufacturing? How’d you figure it all out? We’d love to hear the story.

I design and make all the anthurium you see on my page, I recently opened a store on my website to be able to share my work with the people who may not always want a full arrangement but would love a touch of intergalactic flower art in their home.
