About Us

Ootsie's began as a heartfelt passion project, named after its original owner’s childhood nickname. With a unique name and a love for floral design, she built Ootsies into a beloved local flower shop that flourished for over a decade, serving the community with beauty and care. After ten successful years, she was ready for a new adventure, and that’s when Shawn’s story began.
Shawn had never even set foot inside Ootsies until the day his sister mentioned, “The flower shop is for sale.” His first response was, “And?” But she insisted it would be the perfect addition to his portfolio. Curiosity piqued, Shawn decided to check it out.
A funny mix-up with two Susie's in town (one owning the drug store and the other, the flower shop) led Shawn to finally step into Ootsies. From the moment he walked in, he felt the magic of the shop and its deep connection to the community. Everything fell into place seamlessly—from buying the business to hiring his first team member. With the blessing of the original owner, Shawn and his wife were excited to keep the Ootsies name alive, honoring its roots while bringing fresh energy to the brand.

Just months later, Shawn mentioned to his employee that if another flower shop came up for sale, he’d be interested in expanding. Incredibly, within five months, he was introduced to a flower shop in Chickasha that had been closed after its owner passed away. Seizing the opportunity, Shawn bought the shop, refreshed it, and expanded the Ootsies brand into a second location.Today, Ootsies is more than a flower shop—it’s a growing brand that blends tradition, creativity, and community. As new opportunities bloom, Shawn and his team are excited to share the Ootsies experience with even more communities, one beautiful bouquet at a time.
