Welcome to Articrafts Floral Preservation!

 
 
If you are here you are probably planning a wedding. As the creator, I’d like to take this opportunity to tell you a little about myself and what we do.
I am a life long resident of Greenwich, CT.  I earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Communications/Marketing from Fordham University in New York.  Following graduation, I worked in advertising at Young & Rubicam in New York City.  After leaving Manhattan, I returned to a local publishing company working in page payout design and graphics.  I left that position in 1992 to start my business in floral preservation.
Having worked with both fresh and dried flowers, I strongly believe that in order to have the ability to take a bouquet apart properly, it is necessary to know what initially went into putting it together.  While my formal training began with fresh floral design at the New York Botanical Gardens, I have since mastered floral color preservation techniques.  These techniques coupled with my design sense enable me to transform wedding bouquets into finished pieces of art that will last a lifetime.
 
During the past 17 years in business, I have also held an insurance license and work part time managing the employee benefits division for a local insurance agency.  In my spare time, I speak publicly to students and groups of the importance of organ donation and about how it has personally affected my family.
Thanks for taking the time to read about me.  I work from home by appointment where I live with my husband and three children.  It would be my pleasure to have you let me turn your bouquet into something absolutely beautiful that you can keep for a lifetime!
