ProFlowers Makes Any Day Special

Thank you ProFlowers for making my Mother’s Day special with this gorgeous complimentary bouquet.

1

I admit it… I love flowers. I had this crazy idea in my head when I was younger that I would marry the first man who brought me flowers. Seriously… it took until I was 30 for someone to do just that… and he brought me roses to my job. Out of the blue. Just because. And I married him.

There is something about having fresh flowers in the house that immediately brightens my day. I used to buy flowers more often, but I haven’t done it in a while. I think I must have about a dozen glass vases stored somewhere in the garage… you know, the generic ones that come with a bouquet. I would much rather use something special when I’m displaying flowers… and I really love the new collection of handmade vases that ProFlowers has now. Have you seen them?

ProFlowers, the online florist, has recently partnered with AllAcrossAfrica.org, a fair trade organization that is dedicated to empowering communities by providing employment and education – and ultimately hope. All Across Africa has created a collection of exclusive handmade vases crafted by artisans in Rwanda. They are just beautiful. The ProFlowers All Across Africa Collection will be able to provide healthcare for over 18,000 people. Purchasing just one of these vases will provide a child with the opportunity to attend school for 2 months.

So I came home in the pouring rain to find a box on my doorstep. Since the only flowers I ever received came from local florists, I didn’t realize that ProFlowers delivers their flowers in a box.

It is actually a brilliant way to deliver them… the flowers were well wrapped and kept fresh, the vase was packaged separately and they came with instructions on how to take care of them. There was also some information about All Across America and one of the women who crafted the vase.

I received the Rainbow Bouquet… 24 roses of different colors (pink, red, white) that came with one of the All Across Africa vases. Just beautiful.

These were some of the most beautiful roses I’ve seen. I’m so excited with my bouquet and now my husband won’t have to run to the store early Sunday morning and stand in the line with the rest of the husbands who are purchasing last minute flowers for Mother’s Day.

Try them for yourself. Order a bouquet with an All Across Africa vase for someone you love… or for yourself. Because we all deserve to have gorgeous flowers to brighten our days.
