Instructor Jessie Chui is a self-taught artist, educator, lawyer, the author of Paper Flower Art, Create Beautifully Realistic Floral Arrangements and co-founder of Paper Talk and the Paper Talk Podcast. After a seven-year legal career, she shifted her focus to raise her children and pursue her creativity. Her paper floral art quickly drew the attention of The Paper Place, a retail paper store in Toronto, where she began to teach workshops. With this encouragement, she formally established her art studio Crafted to Bloom in 2016. Her work has been featured on 100 Layer Cake, Green Wedding Shoes, Lia Griffith’s Artist Interview Series, WedLuxe, Holt Renfrew’s Holiday Magazine, Breathe Magazine, and the Botanical Brouhaha podcast, to name a few. In addition to making paper florals on commission, she offers paper flower workshops in private and group settings as well as online paper flower courses.
