Welcome to our Step into Summer event! Jennifer and I have some wonderful things lined up for you to help you get ready for summer. Make sure you visit Jennifer at Eighty MPH Mom daily to see what she has in store for you too. Many days we will be reviewing and giving away the same item on both blogs – that is two chances for you to win!
Of course flowers are an awesome gift. What girl doesn’t like to receive flowers? I sure can’t think of any! It’s not always the flowers that get us though. It’s the thought behind the flowers. Well, YouFloral has even more “thought” behind their flowers because they create these beautiful, precious and sentimental vases with their bouquets that you can treasure long after those flowers are dead.
I am a sentimental sap at heart. It’s just something I was born with I guess, and so many things in life really do have special meaning to me. So you can imagine my excitement when YouFloral agreed to be part of the Step into Summer event. I was ecstatic!
I am really into quotes and sayings and there are a few that I just really love. You never know when it’s going to be the end for any relationship… through death, moving or whatever the reason may be. Nothing really does last forever. So this saying I got on my vase “Treasure the moments, for each one is a gift is kind of something I try to live by. Each and every moment of our lives truly is a gift. But it’s also something that so many people take for granted every single day. I am guilty of this too at times, but I try not to be.
Now the image in that vase is my kids in the lake a few years ago while we were camping. You can just see how much fun they’re having trampling through the water. That moment, at that lake, truly was a gift. Going through that album, I was almost in tears because it brought back so many memories. I will have to share that album with you all one of these days. it’s precious!
Anyway, I think the background and the picture go hand in hand. It was so easy to create the vase. It’s a simple step by step process. There are different themes to choose from like birthday, congratulations and many more. I chose “Inspirational” and came up with the page to the right.
Then you click on the background you like and choose from 3 options; Photo and Message, Message Only and Photo Only. The you simply upload your photo and/or choose your message, then pick your flowers. It really is an easy and fun process! I chose the mauve-o-lous! bouquet and this is what it looked like in the end.
Now this photo does not do these flowers justice one bit. The lilies were all closed when they arrived, so it makes it look bare. Within a day or two they were opened up and the bouquet was just gorgeous. And talk about long lasting… these flowers lasted for about 2 weeks! I couldn’t believe it! I was so amazed and oh so happy because I got to show off that gorgeous bouquet and vase to everyone that stopped by!
This photo on the left is pretty much what the bouquet looked like after the rest of the flowers bloomed. It was just absolutely breathtaking and I couldn’t help but smile every time I walked past it and looked at that vase! I am absolutely smitten with it. I will definitely use it again…. if the Man ever buys me some flowers! He thinks the ones in my garden count.. {shakes head} clueless!
Buy It!
You can buy the mauve-o-lous! bouquet for $39.99 and add a regular glass vase for $9.99 or a vase expression for $14.99. I seriously recommend the vase expression because it adds a whole new experience and touch to the gift. It gives them something to hang on to and treasure forever! That’s really what makes YouFloral unique from other floral companies. It’s a truly personal experience!
