Ordering flowers for the people you love can send a touching message

Valentine’s Day is coming up soon. Traditionally, that is a great time to order flowers for the people you love. I remember seeing the excitement of many of my friends when they received flowers from their current love interest. Also, I still remember the fun of going out on dates, back in my dating days, when some of the guys would bring flowers. The most touching of all is when the man who I love most in the world, my husband, would sometimes order flowers for me from 1800flowers and have them waiting for me at the front door. That was pretty exciting and very endearing. I am referring back to our courtship days, of course.

Sadly, there are times when we find ourselves at the funeral of people we love dearly. Oftentimes, those people and their families are located out-of-town. You long for a way to let their family members know how deeply sorry you are for their loss. To send sympathy flowers from 1800flowers is a way you can comfort yourself as well as them. You know that you are demonstrating your love in a tangible way.

Then there are those times when people go out of their way to be really helpful or they support you in a way that goes above and beyond the call of duty. Of course, you can say thank you or write them a note. But just think what an impact it could make to send them flowers as a way to say thank you for all they have done to help you out. Once again, ordering flowers from 1800flowers could be a great way to express your gratitude in a way they will not soon forget.

Flowers For Any Occasion

Some men may think that flowers should only be given at Valentine’s Day, birthdays, or anniversaries, but really flowers make a great gift for any occasion.

I recall my teen years when a guy had to not only come pick me up for a date, they had to – Agh! – meet my parents for the first time and get grilled by my Dad. I remember one fellow actually brought my mother flowers to help pave the way. I guess that was a bit of overkill, but both my mother and I dearly love flowers. Naturally, my parents were far more approving of him than they otherwise might have been.

I remember my college days. I spent the summer working at a upper scale retirement home as a waitress. There were four of us who worked there who I called my Monday friends – two guys and two girls. We all had Monday off. One guy rented a car. We would go visit different fun spots in nearby areas every Monday. That guy had taken a shine to me. He actually bought me yellow roses for one of our dates. I absolutely adore yellow roses. The bouquet I pictured does not match, but I found it on one of my favorite flower ordering sites – 1800 Flowers.com. If you read my previous blog, you may know why I am one of their greatest fans. They literally saved me from feeling guilty forever and they saved my mother from feeling like she had a daughter who didn’t care. I am very grateful to them.

While I’m on the subject of that company, I noticed they have a cool promotion going on. They have a 1800Flowers coupon codes promotion where you can get 10% off your flower order. In this economy, 10% off is nothing to sneeze at. Hmmm! Now, how do I get my husband to read this blog and get the hint. It may not be my birthday or our anniversary, but …, like I said before, flowers are good for any occasion.

Speaking of my husband, he is very romantic. Especially when we were dating, he would show up every now and then either with flowers from his garden or a bouquet of flowers he picked up at a floral shop.

At one time, I used to crush one of the flowers from each bouquet or corsage I received and save that flower in a scrap book. I also knew of a woman who used to crush flowers she received. Then she would put the prettiest ones together on some really nice paper, arrange them in an artistic manner, and get them framed. They made wonderful gifts.

Well, I think I will publish this blog now and send it to my husband’s e-mail. What do you think? Will it work? Do you think I’ll be receiving a flower bouquet anytime soon? Smile.

Have a great day, Everybody! I hope you receive (or give) a gift of flowers soon. You deserve it! Your gift recipient deserves it as well.
