The Antwerp Chamber of Commerce business spotlight for February is Petals and Vines. The Chamber would also like to welcome the owners Denise and Dave Coleman to the Antwerp business community.
The business was formerly Marilyn’s Petals and Vines which Denise purchased from Marilyn Provines in 2017. Located in the heart of town (110 S. Main St), Petals and Vines offers beautiful flower arrangements for any occasion. When you step into her shop you will also notice the wide variety of items that she has in her business.
Not just a flower shop, although her passion is the beautiful and unique arrangements and sprays she has made for funerals, you can also find many gifts, Home Décor and a little bit of Junque. Candles, soaps, memory stones, wind chimes, blankets, lanterns, grave blankets and headstone arrangements, handbags, antique maps, stuffed animals, repurposed furniture and even some clothing (Lula Roe).
Denise has a wistful look when asked what motivated her to buy this business. She claims that she was just in the right place at the right time. She has a creative side to her which shows in her work and at the same time she realizes how important it was to preserve this service to our community. Her shop is a welcoming place that brings the timeless nature of plants and flowers into everyday life and special occasions.
Good customer service is the feeling that you get when you walk into the business. She has many unique items and she prides herself in having good quality products. She takes a unique approach to her floral arrangements using the freshest flowers to ensure that your arrangement will last. From the moment you open the door, you can expect to be greeted with a smile and a helping hand. The friendly atmosphere and every changing treasures that she finds to bring into her shop keeps her customers coming back. “We treat our customers like they are part of our family, taking the time to get to know them, their needs and their budget.” Satisfaction is guaranteed at Petals and Vines.
Petals and Vines mainly serves the Antwerp Community and surrounding area but if you need an arrangement sent to someone out of town or anywhere in the country, Denise is able to do that also through a program she participates in called Shop to Shop. If you need flowers sent to your sweetheart in another state for Valentine’s Day or a birthday she can do that for you.
One of her fond memories in the short time she has been open was the time that a young man ordered flowers to be delivered to his girlfriend, to her mother and to her sisters, then he went and proposed to her. She was thrilled to be a small part in the beginning of this bride and groom’s life together.
As the seasons change and occasions arise, you will find the shop stocked with holiday themed gifts and floral arrangements. The large front window beckons you to come inside and see what treasures you may find. And guys, remember when prom time comes, call Denise and order that perfect corsage for your date.
If you are looking for a gift for that special someone that will last all year long, consider joining the Flower Arrangement of the Month club. Your special someone will get a floral arrangement each month for a full year. You decide the price and we will deliver on a set date each month. Deliveries can be made to schools, assisted living/nursing homes, businesses as well as homes.
With Valentine’s Day just around the corner watch the front window and the Facebook page Petals and Vines for beautiful and unique gifts for your Valentine. Roses, floral arrangements, chocolates and balloons will be available to you with just a phone call. Shop Small and Shop Local. You won’t regret it.
Business hours are Monday-Tuesday-Thursday and Friday 9-5. Wednesday and Saturday 9-12. Call Denise at 419-258-4005 with orders and like them on Facebook.
