Celebrating Teachers During Teacher Appreciation Week

It's been an interesting and challenging school year for everyone -- from kids and and parents to school administrators. It's been emotional and frustrating on many levels, but teachers have gone a long way to trying to make it as good as possible. They have had to learn a new way of teaching virtually, including new technology and different ways to teach, provide lessons, and offer tests. Every year, we have Teacher Appreciation Week and Teacher Appreciation Day, but this year means something more for all that teachers have had to navigate to do what they want to help our kids. For that, we are so grateful. This year, Teacher Appreciation Week is May 3rd through May 7th and Teacher Appreciation Day on May 4th. Take the time to give teachers some extra kudos this year. Make sure your kids say thank you. They could even hold up thank you signs on camera to show their appreciation to their favorite teachers. Or, they could bring a gift with them to class if they have gone back to campus. As a parent, you can also show your appreciation for your kids' teachers, and we are here to help you. Our San Diego flower shops and floral and gift website offer many options for flowers, plants, and gifts. Our fresh florals and unique floral designs come in all sizes, shapes, and flower and color combinations. There are many bold and colorful floral displays that are perfect for celebrating teachers. These are sure to brighten their classrooms. This includes gerbera daisies, tulips, and roses just to name a few. You can also choose from many green plants, succulents, and blooming plants that provide a long-lasting way to show your appreciation to a teacher. They [...]

St. Patrick's Day arrives on March 17th. It's a celebratory day with roots in Ireland, but that doesn't mean you need to be Irish to celebrate this day and enjoy the fun.

Celebrate Creativity on Floral Design Day

There is so much to be said for creativity and what it can do to lift spirits, motivate people, and create joy. One group of artists that we celebrate each year are floral designers. Our floral designers are everything to us here in San Diego. We love them and what they do so much because we see what they are able to do for the recipients of their artwork. About Floral Design Day Floral Design Day was created by Carl Rittner, the founder of the Rittners School of Floral Design in Boston. He was considered to be a pioneer in floral art education. While he started the initiative, it was Governor William Weld of Massachusetts that created the day in 1995. National Floral Design Day was then established on February 28th as a way to recognize the art of floral design and appreciate its history. Across cultures and time, floral design has been considered to be an important cultural art form. Celebrating Floral Design Day In celebrating it, our San Diego flower shops recognize and reward our floral design teams. We appreciate that many customers also drop by or send messages to our floral designers, too, not to mention come by for a bouquet or order online. We can also celebrate Floral Design Day through painting, planting flowers, using floral motifs in textiles or other mediums, and creating a bouquet. It may even involve taking a floral design class to understand the depth of artistry that goes into this craft. You can also use social media to share awareness about Floral Design Day, including using the hashtag, #FloralDesignDay, and sharing your favorite floral design pictures. San Diego's Most Experienced Floral Designers We believe that our San Diego flower shops have the [...]
