Day 12: Bouquets for under $50

I always try to do fresh flowers when entertaining or sometimes, just because.

A quick tip to make drugstore flowers look great - cut the stems! The shorter and closer to the rim, the “fuller” the arrangement will feel.

But once in a while it’s nice to splurge on a curated bouquet. Make a loved one feel extra special on a birthday or anniversary, give as a hostess gift, or a thoughtful way to congratulate a friend or colleague. A beautiful, carefully curated bouquet is always a good idea. And it will likely mean the world to them! (Trust me, it will :) Husbands take note, your wives will love you for this! :))

I recently came across The Bouqs and LOVE their modern bouquets. Too bad they weren’t on my radar earlier! They have some beautiful bouquets (roses, lilies, peonies, pink ginger etc)  for under $50 which is an amazing price for custom flowers. And they offer same day / next day delivery in most cities, including the Bay. I’ve rounded up a few below that are both seasonal and gorgeous - a visual treat + an idea for future gifting? :) have a look!
