Flowers will always be one of the most emotional gifts there is. Flowers convey messages without words. Just by looking at them, we imagine someone saying “I love you” or “Forgive me” or “Congratulations” or “I’m sorry.” Flowers are always around us, whether in the church where a wedding is being celebrated or in the funeral home where people gather to say their final goodbyes to a loved one. They are in schools on the last day of class to congratulate the teacher, and also in hospital rooms to remind someone who is ill that they must keep fighting.
There are many traditions surrounding the giving of flowers. The type of flower, the quantity, whether the number is even or odd, the presentation… Everything has a meaning. However, the flower industry and the customs of giving flowers are constantly evolving. Today, we have a novel idea: set aside the typical bouquet of flowers and present this beautiful message in a box.
Flowers presented in boxes also have a touch of simple luxury that no other presentation can achieve. They are shown in all their splendor, with nothing to overshadow their beauty. The perfect complement to that beauty is the box that holds them, inspired by Parisian hat boxes, a symbol of timeless elegance.
Flowers by themselves already convey a message, but now we can enhance or personalize it with a beautiful box in which these beauties will last longer. Boxes also offer a touch of personalization. We can write the name of the person receiving the flowers, a beautiful poem, or draw a children’s motif that we like best. We can place a photo that reminds us of a special moment in our lives, or a dedication that we will remember forever.
No more worrying about where to put the bouquet of flowers, whether it needs a vase with water, whether it will wilt if we leave it on a surface, or whether the flowers will deteriorate and droop because they are standing upright. No more having to open the bouquet, take it out of its wrapping, and by the time you have put it in water, the entire presentation and the effort of the florist have been wasted. When we place the flowers in the box, we have the opportunity to give them a solid base so that they can last as long as possible. After all, they are our messengers to a loved one.
The boxes showcase the flowers in all their beauty. They are beautiful on their own, but by placing them in a box, we have the opportunity to add all kinds of decorations, such as different fabrics, paper arrangements and origami, bows, and even toys and sweets for the little ones. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination.
