Forget Me Not

12/24/2025

The RESIN part of Forget Me Not is permanently closing at the end of 2025. It's been a great experience with so many amazing clients. It's been a privilege to capture your memories through dried flower resin artistry. The sweet treats part of Forget Me Not is still open for your sugar cookies, cake pops, cakes, cupcakes, dipped pretzels and Oreos/crackers. What began as a "I don't want to be bored in retirement" hobby became a business since 2016 and although it's been a great ride, that season has come to a close. I will still offer dried flower ornaments as long as inventory is available. If you've been a client THANK YOU so very much. If you have a flower preservation event I can point you to Gemabees in Albertville. Missy Prince will take great care of you. I hope your pieces will bring you joy and comfort for years to come. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year.

If you have reached out in the past few months concerning a memory flower commission, and have not placed an order, please do so in the next few weeks. I'm planning an extended hiatus to work on some home projects and my studio will not be available. Thx.
Studio closing on January 15th.

THANK YOU for another great year of supporting my little side hustles. You are GREATLY appreciated. If you have ALREADY contacted me about ordering I’ve got you on my list. All NEW inquiries will need to contact me after the new year. Closing now gives me time to get pending orders out before the holidays. IF YOU HAVE A PENDING ORDER……..you are placed in the queue when you have dropped off flowers, placed your order AND paid your deposit. This closing applies to memory jewelry commissions AND bakery items. Thanks again for a great 2024! If time permits there may be some pop up bakery items, I’ll have to see if my schedule allows. Stay tuned!

UPDATED 2024 PRICE LIST
Flower Commission Pieces:

ALL pendants are now created and designed more organically, not resin. Each pendant has 6-8 layers of uv protection and sealant. At the time of ordering you must have flowers dried (see pic for instructions), order ready to submit and a 50% deposit. Balance will be collected upon completion. See photos on Facebook for inspiration. Most resin pics you see can be made organically.

If you prefer resin, I can give you a name of a resin artist in Albertville.

If you receive an invite from me it’s legit! This is my sweet resin artist friend in Albertville. She’s amazing! She’s a much larger operation than me, plus offers deep pours, and many different options too. Give her a follow!!

New offerings for 2024. No more resin unless the piece specifically calls for it. Layers of UV protection, no worries of fingerprints, no chemical reactions from resin, quicker turnaround time, so many benefits of this more organic offering. Here are a few samples that were ready for holiday gift giving.

What 2024 will bring. New technique, no resin, quicker turnaround time, less UV and fingerprint concerns, more organic, ability to touch and feel the flowers, etc. Unless a piece just requires resin, my resin journey is over.
Onto newer techniques and changing with the times, demands and trends.
More still shots to come.
