Remote bookkeeping across the USA.
The Story Behind the Name
Why “Floating Magnolia”?
My husband’s job has taken us all over the country, so we’ve learned to stay flexible and embrace the “floating” lifestyle. But no matter where we land, my roots run deep—especially when it comes to my Southern upbringing and love for the grandiflora magnolia, Mississippi’s iconic bloom.
To me, the magnolia stands for quiet strength, resilience, and grace—qualities I bring to my work as a remote bookkeeper. Floating Magnolia Bookkeeping is a reflection of that balance: rooted in trust and service, yet adaptable enough to meet my clients wherever they are.
Behind the Books (... and the Paws)
Dianna Orrels
I am the owner and sole bookkeeper of Floating Magnolia Bookkeeping Services, where I combine expertise with personal care to help small businesses stay financially organized and confident. With years of experience in bookkeeping, I pride myself on tailoring solutions to meet the unique needs of each client.
Numbers may be my specialty, but I find balance through gardening, crocheting, and family time—activities that keep me grounded and inspired. Whether I’m untangling transactions or tending to my plants, I approach every task with the same dedication and meticulous attention to detail that defines my work.
Taffy
Once known as ‘Taffy Lou Who,’ she now simply goes by ‘Taffy’ and serves as my loyal office assistant, guardian angel, and unwavering support specialist. Though she has only been with me for a year, she has fully embraced her role as the heart of my home office.
Her steady presence keeps the workspace calm and grounded, and she reminds me daily of the importance of loyalty and care—qualities I bring to every project.
