DIANE ZORNES (Bio) SILK FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS
Diane was born in Columbus, Ohio where, at an early age, she developed a love for growing and working with flowers. After marrying Gary Zornes, they established their home in Columbus where the yards of their family home were always planted in colorful, seasonal flowers. Diane created beautiful arrangements from these for their home and the homes of family and friends. As a young adult, she moved with her family to Palm Springs, Ca where she continued her work of landscaping with flowers and plants of southern California. She became more interested in silk plant arrangements and visited the local floral shops for references and tips for her floral arrangements and experimented more with the plants and flowers of the southern California desert. Her arrangements are proudly displayed in homes and businesses here and in California. After retiring, she continues her love of floral arrangements and is proud to have them shown in The Upstairs Gallery. All of Diane's flower arrangement may be purchased online or from The Upstairs Gallery..purchase price is the same, of course. |
