TWELVE

This the first time i have ever posted a review on Unilocal.I am taking the time because of how they ripped us off. We bought a lovely candle there because of the incentive that we could bring it back to be refilled at no charge. A year later I brought the candle back and they refilled it and asked for $ 25.95. I reminded them if their offer and they rudely refused.
Buyer beware.

Very cool little flower shop and boutique store. The flower shop part is actually concealed a bit and it does not at all look like your typical flower shop.
— UNIQUE flowers throughout the bouquet, from Japanese cherry blossoms to black lilies to flowers that I can’t even name, it was filled with lots of interesting varieties
— CREATIVE combination that went really well together. It’s not the kind of spot where you can pick out the bouquet, you tell them what you want to spend and they make it for you.
— CLEARLY AN ALTERNATIVE spot to get a highly commercialized item such as flowers. The staff was very casual about it. I do wish there was a little bit more guidance to the customer and ability to select things. I trusted the employee putting together the bouquet and we loved the end result, but showing some the sample flowers they have and having the customer provide a little more direction as to what they want would have been nice. I wasn’t even allowed into the area where their flowers are.

I received a flower bouquet from this florist on my birthday and I will never forget it. Truly a work of art. If you are willing to spend $$ on something special I would highly recommend checking this place out.

best little flower shop i’ve been to in atlanta. not cheap, but very high-​end. you can pretty much say «do whatever you think is going to look good» and you will get a really nice result.

Twelve did a wonderful job on corsages for my recent wedding. I asked for simple and they listened. The ladies in the wedding party really liked them. I recommend Twelve for any special occasion especially if you want something beautiful and unique!

Stopped in to get a bouquet for my hardworking wife after catching a World Cup game at nearby Taco Mac. Wandered the pleasant shop a bit as John created a beautiful bouquet for her. Lots of unique handcrafted artwork and home accessories in a good location — and great flower arrangements as well. My wife was thrilled with the beautiful arrangement and vase of flowers. Will definitely stop by again when I’m in Virginia Highlands.

My go to florist! Love their arrangements and have never been disappointed with their work. They remember their clients. Would definitely recommend this sweet boutique flower shop!

Attitude… I’ve used TWELVE many times over the last 10 years and been happy with the arrangements but I believe the owner’s gotten too big for his britch’s. I left him a personal message to call me because I wanted something special for my anniversary. I was told he’d be in around 1:00. O.k. he finally calls me back around 5:00. I told him I’d used some one else he said «Seriously, Why can’t you just put your order in when you call, that’s what I pay people for». He does make beautiful arrangements but sorry there are too many other florist’s in town that will not give you attitude, or act like they’re doing you a favor, especially when you are (were) a regular customer. I have several friends who have stopped using him to the same reason. Also, the other florist I used made the best arrangement I’ve ever had and delivered it in an hour and a half. Twelve should actually be called TWO, for 2 stars.

Very disappoint, I have never seen an arrangement made so badly, it was for a funeral am I felt embarrassed taking it as it was so bad. Overpriced, and with very little effort put into the arrangement I had.

So dissappointed in Twelve. I have used them a few times and have had a pretty good experience so with Valentine’s Day, I went with them. What a mistake, placed my order, called to confirm, told them what time the office that was being delivered to was closing (3:00pm) and confirmed that detail the day prior. It is now 6:20pm on Valentine’s Day and I just got a call from the delivery driver who is attempting to drop off the flowers now. I did not pay $ 100 dollars for this type of service and will never make that mistake again. When I called to check on my order the girl could not help me, nor remedy the situation, all she could do was apologize. I appreciate the sentiments but a refund would have seemed appropriate to me. Waiting on the owner to call back after closing, we shall see what the verdict is.

Ordered a corsage for my son for a PDC event on Friday for Sunday pick up at noon. Not surprisingly it was not ready and the person working could not get the florist owner to call back. Since we were them late for another function my wife agreed to wait while the person made his first corsage (after searching the Internet for how to make one). While it was adequate (and given that it is impossible to find a replacement on a Sunday) we took what we could get. Of course it made us late for another function. At least the corsage had a ribbon so she could tie it. Basically, thanks for not caring. One star is being generous but Unilocal apparently doesn’t like no stars.

I bought a few items here… I was there with a friend a few days earlier and met John… when I called back he remembered us and what we were looking at. He set it aside for me…
Nice.
I picked up the items and had them gift wrapped. The gift wrapping was unbelievably nice.
They were working diligently to get some centerpieces ready for a wedding and those were amazing.
If I have an event or really need a ‘special’ arrangement, I WILL go here…
Thanks for everything.

Twelve is one of Atlanta’s great finds: a boutique curiosity shop of high fashion, esoteric jewelry, avant garde ID, and kick-​ass floristry. Maximizing the confines of a cozy Midtown space, owner John McDonald curates a collection of gorgeous ready-​to-​wear, home, and gift fashions (and floral arrangements) sourced from local and international artisans.
Whenever I need (um, want) to deliver a crazily romantic and cool gift, this is where I go. This store has remarkably beautiful and practical wares from real artists and designers at very fair prices.

Twelve’s floral arrangements I’ve received have been absolutely gorgeous every time! The flowers always seemed like works of art. They are also very prompt with their flower deliveries (about 6 times). Definitely recommend this place for any special occasion :)

So, I won’t lie… not all flower arrangements impress me. I have seen a lot. Well, my sister had flowers from her delivered to my office for my 30^th birthday (thanks Jess!), and the arrangement was so unique and gorgeous! It did look a little like a centerpiece for maybe a luncheon or some type of social event, but it included so many different types of flowers, including tulips, which are not in season here, but are my favorite! I will definitely recommend them to others!

This is still my «go-​to» place whenever I want to give someone flowers. The arrangements are always unique and usually made up of something I’ve never seen (or rarely see). Which is another reason I appreciate coming here… I would NEVER have thought to pick any of these flowers on their own, much less make an arrangement, and they do it each time.
Believe it or not, I don’t think I’d call this a flower shop. Now that I’m more familiar with this store it’s more of an eclectic housewears/​accessories/​gift shop that also makes floral arrangements. Keep that in mind when the two dogs start running around your heels because if you think you’re at a Carither’s-type florist you’ll be upset (in a Betty Buckhead «shake my head» way). Regardless, they’re still nice, helpful, affordable, and I always leave happy.

I could’ve sworn there was a Christmas tree lot on Peachtree and 12^th, but I was mistaken. Forlorn for a fresh wreath to bedeck my door, Twelve popped in to my mind and I made my way over to 10^th and Piedmont.
While they didn’t have the fresh Fraser fir or Blue spruce wreath I had in mind, they did have the most gorgeous laquered magnolia wreaths I had ever seen. Some were painted (red or white) while other were left in their natural green and brown state. Despite the somewhat hefty price tag, I was smitten.
Service was friendly and oh-​so helpful, providing suggestions on how I could enhance my new wreath and decorate my apartment as a whole. The kind saleswoman even told me to look within what I already had to decorate rather than buying something new from them, and THAT I appreciate.
Twelve is a gorgeous store, no doubt about it. While I didn’t get a chance to hover over every piece in their space, I will definitely return to do just that. And despite their relatively small digs, it may take an hour or two to fully examine everything.

I love this little floral boutique. They sale fresh flowers and other novelty items; all seemed to be hand selected to especially fit the vibe of this small florist. I had the opportunity to have my bridal bouquet designed at Twelve. It consisted of the most gorgeous calla lilies! White callas and Picasso callas (white with deep purple throats). My bouquet was wrapped in pearls; very very pretty. I’ve also purchased the longest lasting Gerber daisies and hydrangeas. You should definitely stop by Twelve. They have reserved parking up front so you don’t have to worry about parking in the not-​so-​friendly-​for-​parking area of 10^th and Piedmont.

I went here looking for a unique gift for my girlfriend based on some suggestions from fellow Unilocalers and the exceeded my every expectation.
They do have some flowers available for sale, but now are more focused on unique handmade gifts from local artisans.
A lot of similar stores buy the same sorts of things, but I had never seem about 95% of the items in this store.
They have everything from beautiful candle holders, great glassware, and and interesting selection of jewelry. They even have some funny cards that I haven’t seen anywhere else.
The owner, Sandra I believe, showed me some items in my budget and wrapped the item I got very exquisitely.
If you’re in the need for some great décor pieces, or a cool and unique gift, definitely check this place out.

Whenever anyone gets a floral arrangement from Twelve, jaws drop left and right. Everything is always beautiful, unique and looks like a work of art. I had only used them for work, so wasn’t sure if they would be too expensive for the small flower budget I had for my wedding reception. Or I thought for sure I wouldn’t be able to get much for my money, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. I have no doubt that they have tons of clients with deep pockets, but they didn’t even flinch at my meager budget and are going to give me what I feel is a lot of bang for my buck.
Twelve’s floral services are undeniably superior. I have seen much of their work, and their arrangements are never understated or weak. Always attention getting and impactful!
