Flower Magician
With a love for natural textures and a sharp eye for contrast, Geertje turns reused materials, paper, and unexpected objects into floral designs that make the flowers shine, and makes sustainable creativity feel practical for every florist.
Nickname:
The Upcycling Queen
Special Powers:
Reusing materials, natural materials, contrasting colours
Geertje Stienstra is the Flower Circus magician who can make flowers sing next to the most unexpected materials. She has a rare talent for balancing florals with objects, texture, and structure, always with one clear goal, let the flowers stand out even more. That is exactly why we call her The Upcycling Queen.
Where others see “leftovers” or “no use,” Geertje sees potential. She loves working with natural materials, and she loves reusing materials, not as an afterthought, but as a creative tool. Her designs feel fresh, bold, and full of contrast because she knows how to use what is already there and then add flowers in a way that makes everything click.
Paper is one of her favourite secret weapons. Geertje has an eye for paper with beautiful structures, and she uses it to build layers, frames, and surprising details that complement the flowers, not compete with them. You will start looking at materials in your studio, your shop, and your workbench very differently after seeing her work.
If you want to see Geertje’s ideas in real time, these online shows are a perfect place to start.
Geertje is also the author of Flowers and Objects, an inspiring book where she presents contemporary arrangements combined with special materials, including wood, plastic, paper, and elastics. Available via the Flower Circus webshop. Source
