"Making dried floral wreaths has brought me closer to nature. I notice plants I never saw before. Everything has its season, and there’s beauty in each stage.“
Allison Davis, a native of the Skagit Valley, has always been captivated by the beauty of nature and the world of visual arts. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Drawing and Painting from the University of Washington and is currently expanding her knowledge in ceramics and business at Skagit Valley College.
With the launch of her company, Festoonery LLC, Allison aims to merge her passion for art with her love for the environment. She is dedicated to creating products that promote a transparent supply chain while being mindful of ecological impact. Each wreath she designs is compostable at the end of its life, and the willow base can be repurposed for future artistic endeavors, encouraging customers to unleash their own creativity.
To minimize her business's environmental footprint, Allison grows her own flowers and willows or sources them from local farmers on Camano Island and in the surrounding Skagit Valley. This commitment not only supports the local economy but also ensures that her creations are rooted in sustainability.
