Adding Flowers with a Gift to Send a Very Special Message

You just happen to glance at the date and realise you have forgotten your best friend’s birthday. Your co-worker announces she is engaged. You need a no-fail way to say ‘I’m sorry’ for a fight with your fiancé. There are many, many reasons where sending just the right gift, or making just the right gesture, is very important. Why not tap into the power of flowers to ensure your sentiments are appreciated? Moreover, to make it extra special why not include a gift with the flowers?

The Top Five, and Beyond

Flowers are perfect for all occasions. They make excellent housewarming gifts and are the perfect thank you for any situation. In fact, flowers are so popular as surprise gifts, and so appreciated, they have become the top five gifts given for:

* Birthday
* Anniversary
* Get Well
* Congratulations
* Mother’s Day

Nevertheless, the beauty of flowers does not stop with these special occasions. Today, flowers are appropriate for a wide range of situations. Fathers love receiving arrangements for Father’s Day and bosses appreciate them on National Boss Day. Adding an extra gift with the floral arrangement makes it even more appropriate, especially in non-traditional situations.

Flower Power Ideas

Professional florists create lovely arrangements with added gifts for different occasions. If you are in need of a gift and are unsure of what to send a florist will have some great ideas.

Bouquets for birthdays can include birth month flowers. Each month has its own flower that can be incorporated into a stunning arrangement. For example, A March birthday arrangement can include bright yellow daffodils, the flower for the month of March. For an added touch, the flower arrangement can be presented in a beautiful keepsake cut crystal vase or urn that can be used repeatedly.

Personalise anniversary bouquets to include the flowers that were a part of the wedding. Imagine what a joyous surprise it will be to unwrap a bouquet of flowers resembling the ones originally carried down the aisle! A bottle of wine or gourmet chocolates makes the surprise unforgettable for the recipient.

Baskets and Hampers

Baskets and hampers are two of the most popular gift giving ideas this year. A wicker hamper or large wicker basket can include an array of items chosen specifically for the receiver. The hamper or basket can be dressed up with flowers or ribbons to make a stunning gift.

A best seller for friends or family is a gourmet foods hamper. This gift hamper includes gourmet food items such as biscuits, pate, cheeses, cookies, and ale or wine, all tied up with a large golden bow. On the other hand, also popular is a fresh arrangement and gift of seasonal flowers and fruit in a wicker basket.

New baby floral arrangements are also very popular this year. Unique baby hampers include fresh cut flowers and baby toiletry items, blankets, and stuffed bears. Balloons can be attached to the handles to make the arrangement more festive. Blues, pinks, greens, and yellows are perfect choices for congratulating the new mom and welcoming the new babe.

The Personal Touch

Even if you have purchased your own gift, flowers can be added as the extra personal touch to let someone know how much you care or how special that person really is in your life. In addition, the flowers personalise even a very impersonal gift.

For example, you might give someone clothes for their holiday or a practical garden tool. When you add flowers the thoughtfulness turns the ordinary or uninspired gift into something very personal.

The next time you find yourself in need of a winning gift think of the power of flowers with a personal gift. With a few clicks of the mouse or a short phone call, you can create a personalised gift that brings joy to the recipient like no other.
