FOUNDiT: Freesia and Vine

36Freesia and Vine Flowers — aka FAV Flowers — is an inspiring place. The shop smells like a lush flower garden, and the space is filled with blossoms of all colors, sizes and textures, artfully arranged.

Owners Jackie Gambill and Liz Gillison have worked out of the space on West Patrick Street in Downtown Frederick for about one year and opened its doors to the public this spring.

Jackie and Liz are truly artists, masters of their craft, making unique and creative arrangements for all occasions — weddings, proms, birthdays and other special events. They encourage imagination and creativity, seeking out flowers to make each bouquet meaningful to the person it’s meant to celebrate.

The shop is located inside a gorgeous historic building with exposed brick and log-cabin-style walls. Liz and Jackie have added their own accents, creating a very stylized and charming little shop.

It’s not terribly large, but it feels like a wonderland that you could get lost in, among the tantalizing scents and picturesque displays that are Instagram-worthy.

FAV Flowers is great place in the neighborhood to stop and smell the roses.
