A Work of Heart<br />
By Wes Engbrecht<br />
your pleasure is, there<br />
is your treasure; where your<br />
“Where<br />
treasure, there your heart; where<br />
your heart, there your happiness.” St. Augustine<br />
wrote this over 1,500 years ago, yet Leilani Schatz<br />
of Broadway Floral of Hearts believes it to be just<br />
as true today.<br />
To call Leilani’s shop on Broadway in<br />
Downtown Bismarck a floral shop would be to<br />
understate its meaning to her. “It’s who I am,” she<br />
explains, “and I am here because I need to be.”<br />
Her passion is evident in the attention to<br />
detail in the store, as everything seems to be in<br />
its perfect place. Each corner contains the right<br />
mix of floral and decor, creating an atmosphere of<br />
simple elegance.<br />
When you visit Broadway Floral of Hearts,<br />
you can see that she has truly put her heart into<br />
it. The heart theme is in her logo, prominently<br />
displayed on the black marquee outside her front<br />
door. It is pervasive throughout her store; on stunning<br />
canvas paintings, in books, note cards and<br />
in the hand-crafted metal hearts and decor that<br />
you can buy. Each vase of flowers she sells is also<br />
decorated with a metal heart.<br />
