July - and loving it!

Hello!

It is a pretty Monday, and I'm happy to have a moment to update!

The store is looking so beautiful right now. I have been away for a week and feel so lucky to have this magical little spot to come back too. I was thinking this morning, (as I was getting ready for work), how special it is to really REALLY love your job. Personally, working in floral makes me a happy lady. Arranging cuts, potting up cute plants and stunning orchids makes my world whole. I love making people happy and their houses beautiful with things that I create with my hands. Anyway, I am excited for the week and seeing all my regulars whom I've missed throughout my small vaca.


Now, on to more important things.....FLOWERS! Peonies are such a killer price right now, anyone near by should really pick some up for your kitchen or living room. They smell amazing and our peonies are not covered in ants like your own garden flowers may be!!! Totally worth the extra gas and pennies if you ask me! :)


Dahlias are also holding their own right now! We have pretty pinks and deeply romantic burgundies to get you started.

Oh yes!

I've been thinking about the hot summer months and the best way you can use cut flowers and get your money's worth. We all know extreme heat makes your cut flowers fade quickly....sad but true. Why not try a bouquet made mostly of tropical greens? They are long lasters that enjoy the heat! All the different greens and textures will brighten up your room for sure, but if you need a pop of colour we can easily do that with a stem or two (or three!) of your choice...like lilies, a few roses, callas or....one of my favorite garden flowers.....peonies, dahlias, scabiosa or stock!


To add visual value and make your arrangement even more long lasting, splurge on a stem of cymbidium orchids that can 2+ weeks! We have too many ideas to list some come into the store yourself and pick our brains!!!


Our "Deal of the Week" is our beloved LUCIA brand products. 30% off all soaps, room sprays and candles. That's a good deal! Come and get it!


Also, to note, I'm going to add some regularity to posting on this blog. I will do my very best to update every Monday and Wednesday. Monday will be a regular posting like this one, and Wednesday will be "Wordless Wednesday". It will give you some ideas and show you our latest and greatest creations we have done so far that week.


Thanks for reading! If you start following our blog and need to order some flowers, give us a call! Mention this post and you will receive 15% off your floral bouquet (tropical bouquet?) or arrangement. (Does not include taxes or delivery fee)


See you Wednesday!
