Crown Collective

Crown Collective is a design/decor/floral company based in Los Angeles, California. Carolyn is the founder and CEO of THE CROWN COLLECTIVE, which was established in 2013 by her husband. What started out as a fun activity with friends evolved into the concept of a flower crown bar for events and parties on the side while Carolyn was also working as a Life Coach for young adults and a Play Therapist for children with developmental disabilities. Carolyn made the decision in 2015 to devote her time and energy to fostering THE CROWN COLLECTIVE full-time, leaving a profession in which she had invested more than ten years. Following her transition to the floral industry, she has been featured in magazines, curated large-scale events with over 300 crowns per day, and traveled across the country to provide flower crown bar services. Carolyn has established herself as a trailblazer in the flower crown industry, and she draws inspiration from her clients, her community, and her daughter. One of five artists who were hand-selected for their Disney-inspired work was featured on Disney Style, and she was featured as one of those artists on the website. Carolyn was inspired by her Disney Princess experience to create The Princess Collection, a series of flower crowns based on some of the world's most beloved Disney princesses. In addition, she was named one of YELP's top nine floral destinations to visit in the spring of 2018 and was profiled on Voyage LA as one of the city's most inspiring stories. Carolyn was moved to give back and make the connection between mental health and business. She launched The Love & Generosity Campaign in February of 2019 as a way to give back to her community by connecting those in need in the mental health sector with the resources she possessed as a result of her work in the event industry. Carolyn's ultimate goal is to connect with others and come full circle in the process of providing a thoughtful and caring service that ultimately benefits the community by improving their overall health. Carolyn is also a Seeds of Beauty Grant ambassador for Fleurs de Prairie, which she joined in 2015. Throughout 2019, the Seeds of Beauty Campaign will recognize and support women who are committed to bringing beauty to their communities; women who are fueled by kindness, strengthened by generosity, and who are always in celebration of the hustle. Fleurs de Prairie celebrates those who inspire one another to #FleurishTogether by recognizing them as champions. Carolyn is the mother of a young daughter named Willow, and she is currently juggling the demands of being a mother first and an entrepreneur second, as well as running her own business. Carolyn enjoys going for walks with her daughter Willow and her father, spending time with her dogs, decorating her home, and traveling with her husband to National Parks all over the United States. Oh, and you can usually find Carolyn wearing a hat and surrounded by flowers on most days.
