Flowers by Karen is owned by Karen McIntosh. I have been working with flowers since I was a little girl and picking bouquets of violets for my Grandmother. I started working for Elin's Flowers in Redlands CA when I was 18 years old as a delivery driver. While there, Elin saw that I had a natural talent and started to teach me all the mechanics not only in big designs but in the smaller items such as boutonnieres and corsages, plus I made all the nosegays for proms. I was also taught the art of floral design and helped make arrangements. Through the years that followed, I created weddings for friends and different events.
My husband encouraged me to purchase Kade's Florist (established 1984) 3 1/2 years ago and I am loving the ability to bring the beauty of flowers in an artistic way to my clients. I have a passion for every aspect from Birthdays to Weddings, from Events to Sympathy.
I have a wonderful staff to assist in making your experience with Flowers by Karen a wonderful one.
