I'm a SAHM and thinking of what kind of job I want to do when I return to the work force. I used to decorate cakes for a bakery and have worked in various retail positions over the years. I've always had an interest in flowers and love the idea of being

Business Spotlight: Country Garden Florist
20.05.12
Yvette Quigley has always had an interest in flowers. In fact, Quigley helped out with flower arrangements for her friends' weddings for years while living in Michigan, which is where she met her partner Mike Shaw. The pair moved to Lilburn and took over ownership of Country Garden Florist from Rita Pantels last February. Pantels originally opened up the florist shop in 1977. I recently sat down with Yvette and Mike to talk about their business.
Patch: What is the best aspect of owning Country Garden Florist?
Mike: We were very fortunate in terms of the staff and the customer base that were in place from the many years that Rita was running this place. We have very loyal customers and we do things that are a little bit out of the norm and we go above and beyond. But our customers know that this is what we're about. There are a lot of advantages to owning your own business but I think that it's not always as glamorous as people think. Yvette and I both left corporate positions in which we were both traveling 50 to 70 percent of the time. It's nice to be a lot more grounded in one place and we have a lot more say in doing the things that we want to do. It's rewarding.
