Giving Flowers: 4 Creative Ways to Give a Bouquet
As we’ve said before, there’s no such thing as the “right” time to give flowers. To make the biggest impact, it’s best to add a touch of creativity and the unexpected to surprise your loved ones. Whether it’s an original container, an unexpected moment, or an offbeat setting, the Sessile editorial team has a few ideas to help you wow everyone!
Unique Containers
Vases can really enhance a floral arrangement when chosen with good taste. But why not try something different? You can go green and repurpose everyday objects to create unique containers.
Let's get started—here are a few ideas: a watering can, a tin can, a teapot, or even light bulbs! If you're into crafts and DIY, you shouldn't have any trouble coming up with a unique display.
Do you have an artistic streak? If so, you might even consider hollowing out a pineapple to turn it into a creative vase, adorned with a small fruit arrangement. Still, let’s be honest—it does take some work…
I find my bouquet of flowers
Have it delivered to his office!
If there’s one place where it’s hard to imagine the unexpected, it’s the office. When the routine of meetings, emails, and stress starts to weigh us down, we often find ourselves dreaming of a little breath of fresh air. To surprise your loved one, why not have flowers delivered right to their workplace? This little gesture is sure to melt the hearts of all their coworkers… or make them jealous!
And if you get the chance, we even recommend that you go there yourself…
Place flowers all over your home
Here’s the scenario: your sweetheart comes home from work after an exhausting day running around, or returns worn out from a long trip. In that case, why not brighten up the house with some flowers? Beautiful arrangements, thoughtfully placed throughout your home, are sure to lift your sweetheart’s spirits.
Alternatively, if you can't get in: leave the bouquet on the doormat!
Edible flowers during a romantic dinner
We sometimes forget that certain flowers are edible. In that case, giving flowers can also mean preparing a romantic dinner adorned with edible flowers. Whether for flavor or simply to brighten up a dish, any occasion is a good one. Violets, lavender, roses, zucchini flowers, or nasturtium buds—you have plenty of options for creating a colorful and delicious dish.
Pan-fried zucchini flowers, rose-infused poultry, lavender tuiles… So don’t hesitate to whip up some unforgettable floral dishes for them.
No matter how you decide to give your flowers, we at Sessile are sure you'll make the right choice. So just be yourselves and get creative!
