Alternatives to Sending Flowers

It's my birthday! In honour of my special day, I'm giving some tips on alternative bouquets you can send to people on their special days (or when you mess up).

Cookies by Design



Maybe your special someone has a sweet tooth. Send them a cookie bouquet from Cookies by Design! When my man wasn't feeling well when I was out of town, I sent him one of these bouquets. I wanted monkey cookies (inside joke) but didn't see them on the website, so I called Cookies by Design. They were happy to make me monkey cookies for no extra charge, so I got a bouquet of monkeys with a center message cookie saying "Bounce Back Soon!". He loved it.

Fruit Flowers



When his birthday rolled around, I wanted to send him another cookie basket to his office, but he was on a diet. So I sent him a bouquet of Fruit Flowers instead! He loved these even more! All the fruit was really fresh and sweet, particularly the pineapples. He ended up sharing his bouquet with his coworkers, who had been eying it jealously since the time it arrived at his cube while he was away at a meeting.


Hope you enjoyed those tips and keep them in the back of your mind next time you want a creative way to send flowers to someone!

Happy Birthday! And nice finds - those look like they'll be good to squirrel away and use at some future point when I want something more creative for the fiancee.

Thanks!

And I hope your fiancee loves whatever she gets whenever you decide to use these out of your bag of tricks! I really think they're great!
