Don't use a floral wire service! Just call a local florist in the desired location where you want to send your flowers.
4 Reasons To Order Your Flowers Online From Real Flower Shops:
1) Floral wire services such as FTD, 1(800) flowers and ProFlowers, may send your order to a local florist to be filled, but they take a percentage of the price leaving less money to create and deliver your order.
2) Online flowers may look great and be cheaper, but are usually made of inferior flowers.
3) Some online florists send your flower arrangement unassembled in a box.
4) If you have a problem with your floral purchase there is no one to call.

"Hold yourself to a higher standard than anybody else expects of you,"
Henry Ward Beecher
I'm not talking about pushing yourself to be a perfectionist. No one is perfect! But are you really, today, being the best that you can be at anything you do? Let's raise the standard!
I'm asking you to make a conscious decision to be the best that you can be in at least one area of your life. A decision to really learn all there is to know about that thing you do and to do it excellently.
Just pick one thing!
If you strive to be more generous, then give up your seat to someone for no good reason. You're helping others as well as yourself.
If you knit, make a commitment to learn new stitches and master them. Then teach someone else how to do it.
If you volunteer to teach others how to read have a vision for them. Join or create a group of others doing the same thing and share your best techniques.
I've only been a florist since 2007. I've got lots to learn! I always smile a little though when I hear my customers speak of my great expertise and knowledge of flowers. Many days I'm sharing something I may have learned only a few days before.
But I'll tell you one thing. I'm committed to learning as much as I can about flowers. I'm committed to mastering new techniques in floral design. I'm committed to experimenting with unusual flowers and foliage. I'm committed to learning about new trends and products on the market. But mostly, I'm committed to teaching my customers everything I know about flowers.
I've not mastered everything and probably never will, but in my little corner of the flower world I'm shooting to be the best that I can be. How about you?
