Winter’s Delightful Flowers Are Worth Waiting For

Here in Marco Island, there's really no such thing as winter. We call it that, but really our landscape looks nothing like the rest of the country's in the cold season. And frankly, we here at Marco Island FloristĀ couldn't be happier about it. We love being surrounded by green (and blue!) year round, and that we still get to enjoy winter-inspired flowers, too. Even though there will be no snow days for us this December, we're still setting our tables with centerpieces and bouquets that conjure a colder scene.

Yummy Secret Santa Gifts

Secret Santa, a gift swap that hinges on the giver concealing his identity from the recipient, has a mysterious background. As best we can tell, our modern version is an import from Scandinavia, where custom held that givers should go around knocking on doors and dropping presents at them (or in some cases, throwing them into the house!), all without being seen. Similar gift exchange traditions exist in Germany, Latin America, the Philippines, Ireland . . . You name it. It seems we can't get enough of the anonymous gift exchange, and we at Marco Island Florist are no different. Read More about Yummy Secret Santa Gifts »

Merry and Bright Holiday Office Decor

Brighten up your office this holiday season with some magical floral decor that goes well beyond the poinsettia variety. There's a lot of fun to be had hanging the tinsel garlands and decking out the Christmas tree with your team. Doing so builds workplace morale and gives everyone a break from seasonal stress. One way to add to the cheer is to put out some fresh blooms in holiday colors, or to gift your coworkers and colleagues with a bouquet that can grace their desks and remind them that you're grateful for their efforts.

The Centerpiece at the Heart of the Table

With all that goes on at Thanksgiving - especially if you're hosting it - it can be hard to stay centered and remember what the holiday is about. Amid the hustle and bustle of grocery shopping, planning, organizing and cooking, we can forget to take a minute to appreciate what's around us. Know what helps? Flowers. The centerpiece you put at the heart of your Thanksgiving table is often the last thing you add to it before the food and the people. It represents the beauty and bounty of the season, offering you and your guests something lovely to focus on as you eat, chat and share your blessings. Given its significance, we at Marco Island FloristĀ think your centerpiece is something you should choose with a lot of care and attention. Read More about The Centerpiece at the Heart of the Table »

Whether you send the item in advance or just after Thanksgiving, as is customary, we here at Marco Island Florist know your hosts will be moved at the gesture.

Bright Blooms for Bold Veterans

  Every year on or around November 11, we celebrate Veterans Day, a time to express our gratitude for our U.S. military veterans and to acknowledge their service to country. We do this through parades, parties, and observances. We commemorate the occasion in our homes, spending time with our favorite vets. And yet, many of us are far away from the veterans in our family or the ones we've come to know throughout the years. And in that case, we at Marco Island Florist suggest you send a bouquet of bright blooms, straight from the Sunshine State. Read More about Bright Blooms for Bold Veterans »

Centering on Mums

Let's face it, we're all thinking about what we're going to put on our dining room tables as the holidays approach. Now that we're solidly in the midst of Fall - even if it doesn't feel like it outside - it's time to talk about our harvest decor. Along with polishing the silver and stocking the pantry, we need to think about how we'll decorate our tables. We at Marco Island Florist Home & Gifts have an inkling of what you may be looking for, and it involves November's official flower: the mum. Read More about Centering on Mums »
