About Us
Hi, I'm
Paulette, and I have had the pleasure of working with flowers for most of my
life. I began working in greenhouses, then worked in various flower shop
for more than 25 years. I became an experienced floral designer.
In 1998 my husband and I
founded FORGETMENEVERS. It was both a dream come true and an "out
on a limb" business challenge. After 14 years in business, the dream
is still coming true each day, and the business is solid and steady.
The
fourteen years experience provides a number of advantages for both my
clients and myself. Hands on learning now allows me to treat and process
different flowers in different ways. I hand treat each flower. Some require
special treatment, and some are very easy. Knowing how to process all
the various varieties is invaluable knowledge which benefits both the
clients and my work. I have learned by my mistakes, and now I KNOW that
I will produce beautiful and memorable pieces for each client.
I work out of my home in
Carmichael. My garage has been converted to a workshop and includes my "magic
machine" that preserves flowers.
The
freeze dry machine extracts all water and moisture from the flowers. The
process is very high-tech, and takes nearly two weeks to complete a process
cycle. The fresh flowers that were placed into the machine come out perfectly
preserved- and fragile. Their beauty is then protected by placing them
in display cases as shown in other parts of this website.
I am blessed that my God
given talent and my experience allow me to enjoy each day. This is not
"work" - but rather an opportunity to receive immense personal
satisfaction while providing others with life time treasures.
