Hanneke, 42, lives in Scharnegoutum, in the Netherlands. Flowers and making things with them are her extreme passion and have been since she was a child, when she could always be found in the garden.
Hanneke owned a flower-shop for ten years. Some of her winning competitions include the Barcelona World Flowers Cup, Dutch Champion of Floristry, and the 2022 Europa cup in Poland. She is also a certified flower judge and participated in the jury for the Dutch TV program “Hollands Beste Bloemstylist” for two seasons. Hanneke brings her own, very personal creations to life, characterized by her use of color, avant-garde techniques, and unfailing eye for detail.
