The Arrangement | Flower Lessons in Red Hook

Saipua studentsCourtesy of Saipua The Little Flower School in Brooklyn teaches people how to make their own arrangements.

Sarah Ryhanen and Nicolette Owen discovered each other the way everyone does these days: online. Ryhanen owns Saipua, a flower shop in Red Hook, Brooklyn, where she also sells beautifully packaged soap made by her mother. (“Saipua” is Finnish for “soap.”) Owen runs her own Williamsburg-based flower biz focusing on private events. They are kindred spirits, who make stunning flower arrangements in the style of “Oh, these wild things I just cut out back?” Of course, the flowers are particularly chosen and arranged — and not cheap.
