Valentine's Day

Amber Mustain - Tuesday, January 26, 2010

"Love and kindness are never wasted. They always make a difference. They bless the one who receives them, and they bless you, the giver." Barbara De Angelis

Valentine's Day is in a couple weeks...a day set aside for Love, but I believe everyday should be set aside to Love! Let's all try to love a little more each day.

Beautiful Expressions will be offering some amazing flower arrangements for Valentine's Day. We will have tulips, orchids, and roses. We believe your arrangement should be a reflection of the loved one you are giving it to.

**Exciting News**
We will have a small shop at The Promenade Shops of Briargate on February 12th, 13th, and 14th!

We will be delivering Saturday to Falcon, Peyton, Elbert, and Colorado Springs. We will not be delivering on Sunday, but will be open. If you schedule your delivery on Thursday February 11th or Friday February 12th you will receive a
Free Box of Sweet Shop Gourmet Chocolates!

Call us 494.0209 to pick out the perfect arrangement for your special someone. We offer variety, quality, and art in each design.

**Please support a local florist this holiday**

Colorado Fall

Amber Mustain - Friday, October 09, 2009

I woke up this morning to beautiful Colorado snow. This is the second time it's snowed here this year, but this is the first time it has stuck. Snow this early in the season is a nightmare for a florist because we have to wrap all the flowers if it is below 35 degrees so they don't freeze. The Falcon/Peyton area is extra difficult because of the wind! Hopefully it will warm up a bit so I can enjoy the fall colors just a little more. My red maple tree was really pretty with the snow on it this morning. Keep warm today!

For a long time I have been irritated with wire-services because they are a dis-service to the customer and the local florist.

A few reasons you should use a local florist instead of a wire-service:

        Value-there is no middle man charge. You will receive an arrangement for the money in which you paid.

        Quality/Creativity-the florist can tell you what they have in their cooler. What is the most beautiful and fresh, and make you a one-of-a-kind arrangement.

        Expertise-the local florist is a trained professional. They have vast knowledge in their product...it's not just someone taking an order. This is their passion. They want to WOW your special person!

        Guarantee-You don't have to jump through hoops when there is a concern-you call them directly and they handle it immediately.

Some may argue that wire-services are more convenient, which in some cases they are. As for my shop, I have a shopping cart available 24 hours a day on my website.

The best value for your money is alwyas going to be calling a local florist in the area you are sending flowers to. It is always best to ask where the florist is located when calling because there are imposters. Wesley Berry Florist is an example. They advertise themselves as a local florist in many cities, take the order, and then send that order to a REAL local florist. I believe this practice is unethical and deceiving. When I asked FTD and Teleflora about it, because their logos were on this florist's site, they said there was nothing they could do. Of course NOT- they get money from every order as well! Leaving the Customer and the Florist short-changed!

Thank you for supporting your local florist and Beautiful Expressions!
