Here is another great neighborhood flower shop that I would like to share with you. Christine Noelle Design is located on 106 West Oak Street in Chicago (Oak St. & Clark St.).
It's on the first floor of a 6-story historical brick building. They have a nice tall storefront facing Oak Street with modern arrangements in the show-window and full of bright colored flowers in the background. When you get into the store the bright white walls capture the colors of flowers which they display on a large farm table. The super high ceiling at the top of the walls, have old crown mouldings that were originally in a theater in Paris, one of the shop persons told us. They have two custom suspended light fixtures that look like wire hoops of a petticoat. The whole store interior is a modern French country style, I would say, and I can see the owner's meticulous design vision throughout.
They even offer classes on a variety of topics, from floral arrangement to bath bomb making, which sounded like a lot of fun. I would love to try them sometime. There were two people at the store getting ready for a class that afternoon, and they were so nice to take their time to chat with me and my husband. I haven't purchased any flowers from them yet, but I will try to go there soon, when it's nice out, to take a long walk with my son. I'll be sure to write about the beautiful flowers from this beautiful store!
