PRESERVING MEMORIES.
Petals Remembered, an enterprise of the Illinois Center for Autism, is a unique floral preservation shop. Petals Remembered was specifically designed to provide vocational training and employment opportunities for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) while serving the dried floral needs of our customers.
All arrangements are crafted by using your dried flowers in celebration of special events such as weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, the birth of a baby, or to remember a loved one. Preserving flowers to commemorate a special occasion is the best way to hold on to life’s memories. We design dried floral arrangements that will last a lifetime.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS.
Floral preservation is a process that removes moisture from the flowers which results in dehydration. Once the dehydration process is completed, the flowers can better maintain their shape and natural color. Timing is of the essence when making a decision to preserve a special floral arrangement. If your event has already occured it may not be too late to preserve your flowers, so follow these instructions to save your Petals to be Remembered. The final appearance of your flowers is determined by when we receive the floral arrangement… FRESH is BEST!
