Birthday Gifts: Flowers Make the Top of the List

Flowers make the top of this list for most festive and desirable gifts especially when it’s someone’s birthday.

Having your birthday flowers delivered is always a nice surprise that adds that special touch that makes the recipient feel even more appreciated on their special day.  Best practice is to order your flowers in advance of the person’s birthday.  Even if it’s 3 or 4 months away you can place your order now and forget about it.  Why not take advantage of this great delivery service and use it as a built in reminder!  Order flowers for a special occasion and have the flower shop deliver for you on the specified date.  When you get the thank you call from the recipient for the fantastic flower bouquet you sent it’ll jog your memory and you’ll surely look like the hero who never forgets a birthday or any other special occasion.

Not sure what to write on the birthday card?  Not a problem.  Roses & Violets Florists are great at writing cards.  We also have a selection of full sized gift cards to choose from.

Though flowers are not as long lasting as other presents they leave a huge impression in one’s memory and are a good way to let someone know he/she is special. There are lots of other elements you can add to your flower bouquet such as a gourmet gift basket in either savoury, sweet or fruit we can also design combinations of these 3 groups.  Teddy bears are always a nice surprise, balloon bouquets, picture frames with a special picture in the frame… the potential is endless.  Roses and Violets Florists are creative at putting together unique gifts and will organize the entire arrangement and decorate it into one beautiful birthday set. The design can be designed according to a season and the type of flowers.

Flowers have invariably been a prime gift selection for any occasion for many centuries. Individuals appreciate the gesture and majestic beauty of flowers. According to Michael Cohen 92 percent of ladies will keep in mind the last time they received flowers; and 97 percent of men and women recall the last time they gave a floral gift. Speak with your florist regarding sending the proper floral gift.

I’m a firm believer that the amount of affection you’ve received in your life starts with the amount of affection you have bestowed on yourself.  So, in addition to giving flowers to others, remember to treat yourself as well. Research shows that flowers make people happier; make yourself happier by including flowers as a part of your daily self-love practice!

One of the best-kept secrets of gift giving is that a gift of flowers from one friend to another is always the perfect fit.  Pick a flower or flowers that remind you of your friend’s unique spirit and include a note linking the flower to them. The greatest gift you can give someone is the gift of truly seeing them.

There is something magical about sharing life’s most memorable milestones… marking special times with flowers will keep you in their recollections forever. Congratulate them on knowledgeable achievement, a baby or something new, or send a giant dose of love when they really need it most, when a break-up or upon a spell of unhealthy news.

My 1st – and perhaps best – piece of advice is to surprise your love with flowers in surprising places in unanticipated ways that. as an example, put the flowers in a place that your love won’t immediately see them, however instead discovers them unexpectedly.  Or, have flowers put on her workplace desk before she gets into work for the morning. Flowers in addition to the element of surprise are a match made in heaven.  If you, as an example, put a flower on the passenger seat of your love’s car before she sets out to start her day she’ll glance over and see your gift, WOW!

Smart lovers know that flowers are like bursts of affection you’ll be able to provide any day of the year to make a deeper bonds. Despite how busy life gets or what challenges you face, bear in mind the bond between you is what matters most.  Think outside the boundaries of tradition, and send her (or him) flowers that remind you of a memory solely the 2 of you share.  Did you meet in spring?  Fresh tulips or a mixture of spring blooms could be the key. You can say so much through flowers without ever saying a single word – it’s simply up to you to create your move.

Bold colors are huge this year for weddings – the days of the shy and retiring bouquet are long departed! Fushias, orange and cherry tones contrasted with splashes of lime green and yellow have dominated as brides are following trends emanated from Europe. Over the top colors add. glamor against dark bridesmaids gowns add ommph to wedding photos.  Combined with the ongoing popularity of daring coloured wedding shoes, brides have embraced colour daringly and have been celebrating nature’s most vibrant blooms with gusto!

Sage green satin ribbon binds a vintage look of glam and sophistication

Also remaining ever popular are the embellishment of broaches with jewelled broaches, buttons and lots of quirky relics (be it from grandma’s drawer, a family heirloom or a thrift shop) these special touches have grown in popularity.

The most classic vintage look for bouquets and centre pieces with masses of single species blooms with an emphasis on shading and soft textures – peonies, hydrangea and ranaunculus, viburnum , cymbidium orchids and green roses are being featured this wedding season. Rustic –chic inspired brides have been requesting looser and more free flowering designs with special emphasis on organic and unusual details such as twigs, berries, grasses, mosses and nests.

Other unusual details that are popular right now include feathers.  Feathers are one of these quirky, fun elements that are being added to wedding bouquets and centre pieces. Add softness and a touch of vintage glam, drama or refined elegance.

Feathers can achieve many varying aesthetics depending on their style and use. Don’t be afraid to explore the extra ordinary materials that could add that point of difference to your wedding flowers – feathers  can look fabulous!

A Harvard Medical School study conducted by Dr. Etcoff found that a small bouquet of flowers perked people up during their morning routines. They also found that one of the best places for flowers is in the kitchen, which people frequently visit throughout the day and particularly in the morning. The study also found that flowers tend to help people:
o Feel more compassionate towards others throughout the day
o Feel a calming energy at home or work
o Decrease negative emotions like anxiety and depression
The presence of fresh flowers is calming to the senses, enhances your mind and stimulates creativity
People most frequently place flowers in their kitchens, dining rooms and living rooms, where they spend a lot of time, but placing them in the bedroom is ensures you see them at the best time of day: first thing in the morning! A wonderful way to start each day on a positive note.
