From brides to bedsides: woman repurposes wedding flowers for sick patients

Shawn Chamberlain knows the power of a flower. As is similarly illustrated in the video above, receiving flowers can lift your spirits and brighten your day. As a landscape designer, Chamberlain has worked on many beautiful gardens, including those at hospice care centers.

After realizing how much a flower arrangement can do for sick patients, she started Full Bloom. Chamberlain and her team of volunteers recut, rearrange and repurpose donated wedding and garden flowers for patients in nearby hospitals, hospice care, nursing homes, and long-term care facilities.

We strive to reuse every stem we receive. " type="quote" author="Full Bloom Website" authordesc="" isquoteoftheday="false"%

Located in the Coeur d'Alene/Spokane area of Northern Idaho, Full Bloom runs solely on donations and the goodness of others.
