MEET CHRISTY GRINER HULSEY 

It Doesn't Have To Be Perfect To Be Beautiful.

Christy Griner Hulsey is the owner of Colonial House of Flowers. Using plants, flowers and a real story as her medium she specializes in intimate, high-end, bespoke, artistic corporate partnerships including florals and plants in restaurants, shops, businesses, workshops, homes and company photoshoots, showrooms and movie sets.

She travels the globe teaching sold-out workshops, hosting pop-up shops, and sharing herself through her old-world, painterly, classic yet whimsical garden style arrangements that are all-her!

You can say that flowers found Christy. And, not other way around. After a successful career utilizing her degree from University of Georgia’s prestigious Grady School, the family flower shop came to her serendipitously. To keep it alive, she relied on the only resources she had mainly, a knowing found inside. Thankful for those days sent to the garden by her grandmother, Margie Tygart, using a lot creativity and tenacity, Christy did it. 

Christy's gritty sense of story telling, honesty, authenticity, grace, and a bigger vision effortlessly translate into the magical world of flowers and plants, and small business. Her compositions that drip with soulful details full of loose, wild texture and abandon with a respect for beauty in all stages of life have made Christy one of the most sought after designers in the country, and the world. Her organically balanced, naturally humble, whimsically cheerful, peculiar approach to art and life help that!  Believing good fun, strong women, genuine kindness, tight friendships and tough families are what make the world go around, she's original, loyal, tenacious and quiet at times.
