'Tis the season...

... for baby showers! Some of my closest friends and co-workers are expecting this month. What better way to anticipate and welcome the new bambino/a than with flowers! Shown here are a few arrangements that were displayed at a shower held at work. Nature offers us so many fabulous pink, blue, green, and yellow floral shades to choose from. I decided to include baby's breath in these arrangements for a soft, innocent look (and pun intended : )

Also, flowers delivered to the hospital or home after the baby has arrived are a wonderful way to bring mom some cheer. Her favorite flower can be added into a specially-arranged pink or blue bundle for a little extra personalization and attention. So remember to celebrate all those new mamas with flowers that say 'congratulations!' and 'you rock!'

I've got sunshine and sunflowers

There's nothing like a bouquet of flowers or beautiful arrangement to bring sunshine to a not-so-sunshiney day. This teacup of bright yellow sunflowers, lilies, and roses were requested by a friend for her aunt after she returned home from the hospital. She loved the surprise and the unique floral presentation.

Today's tip: bring flowers to someone who isn't expecting them. They'll be so thrilled to receive them and you'll feel fantastic for having spread such beautiful joy!

Happy Mother's Day!

Our mamas are all wonderfully unique and what better way to tell them how much they mean to us and how grateful we are for them then with a special arrangement designed to match their personalities and preferences. As you can see in the photos above, my customers each provided specific details, colors, and flower requests to make their mom's flowers ideal especially for her! She deserves it !!

It's 5:00 somewhere.

Happy Cinco de Mayo! A great day calls for a great arrangement. For this fiesta, we got creative with container use. Unique displays like this one are great for any party or happy hour.

Margaritaville could use some daisies among all those limes!
