VALENTINE’S DAY DESIGN INSPIRATIONS Presented by Mayesh Wholesale Florist 2011 National Design Contest
With over 240 participants in Mayesh’s first ever National Design Contest, Mayesh CEO Pat Dahlson said, “We are ecstatic that our customers have embraced the design contest and we look forward to a fun and competitive event.” Contestants choose between three different contest boxes containing several different combinations of flowers. Mayesh decided to focus on Valentine’s Day products that did not include red roses, which is very expensive during the holiday. On the following pages, Mayesh Wholesale Florist presents to you Valentine’s Day design inspirations provided by the amazing designers who participated in the 2011 National Design Contest.
