How did you choose the name of your business? We named it Barrington Florists because we have another shop in Hinsdale, and we wanted to come up first in searchability. That was even before Internet searches.
Why did you decide to locate in Barrington? We were driving around one day and saw the building in Barrington and it looks a lot like the one we have in Hinsdale, so we thought it was perfect.
Is there anything you'd like to tell Patch readers? I've been working with flowers since I was 8 years old. I learned the craft and went out on my own. After 40 years, I better know something! We love doing parties, christenings and engagements because we can get pretty creative with those.
