curated by necessity

A young woman with wavy, shoulder-length light brown hair, wearing a sleeveless black top and a red skirt, is standing indoors near a decorative marble column with large flower arrangements and classical architectural features in the background.

Hello and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here! 🌸

My name is Madeleine Wallace, and I created Blooms and Balance as a space where gardening, lifestyle, and wellness come together in harmony.

I started Blooms and Balance out of necessity. Living with chronic illness made me feel disconnected from myself; I struggled with energy, confidence, and even the simple joy of getting dressed. Finding products, routines, and lifestyle shifts that actually worked for me wasn’t easy, but little by little, I discovered ways to feel beautiful, balanced, and more like myself again.

Here, you’ll find:
🌿 Gardening tips and seasonal guides for blooms that thrive year-round
💆 Wellness and lifestyle essentials that support balance from the inside out
👗 Chronic illness–friendly fashion and compression wear hacks that don’t sacrifice style
🏡 Curated product finds that simplify life, nurture beauty, and make your home feel like a sanctuary

Every recommendation I share is tried-and-true, something I genuinely love or believe can add value to your life. Some of the links are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission (at no extra cost to you) when you choose to support my work through a purchase.

My mission is simple: to help women bloom where they’re planted, embrace wellness in all its forms, and create balance that feels both beautiful and sustainable.

Let’s grow, glow, and flourish—together. 🌸
