FLOWER HAMPERS – THE NEW GIFTING TREND
Despite the tough economic situation, there’s always room for some of life’s greatest pleasures.The simple joy of giving will never diminish.
However, customers are becoming increasingly discerning and demanding, and as they want more value for their money, businesses have to stay ahead of the game.Florists have also had to get more creative.An emerging trend is for florists to create hampers and floral arrangements that include a special treat or gift that will give pleasure long after the flowers have faded.
Many florists are adding value to their creations by coming up with new and exciting ideas for arrangements and hampers.Of course, beautiful fragrant blooms make the most wonderful gift.When they come with an extra something, like a special gift, it’s even better.
Perth florist, Ennis Flowers, have searched around the world to bring their clients the latest trends in gift hampers.
For example, when there’s a visit from the stork, baby hampers have become an increasingly popular choice as gifts.A great idea is the ‘nappy cake’ in which several layers of baby clothing, nappies and wraps are arranged like tiers of a cake, and then wrapped up in clear cellophane and ribbon for a spectacular gift.These practical and lasting gifts can be made up in appropriate colours for new baby boys or girls.
Another innovative baby gift idea from the Perth florist is a ‘teddy bouquet’, comprising a collection of miniature teddies wrapped in feathers and coloured paper to resemble a stunning bouquet or posy of flowers. They also do baby ‘cupcakes’ which are made from items of clothing such as rompers and socks cleverly folded into silicon cupcake moulds to look just like edible treats.
Birthdays and anniversaries are great occasions to send gift hampers with champagne and flowers, to make sure the celebrations sparkle.
And it’s not just the ladies who are on the receiving end of flower deliveries !Flowers and hampers are increasingly being sent to men, according to Ennis Flowers of Perth.And we can see this trend in some of the gift hampers on offer which have a more masculine orientation.Some popular choices are flower arrangements in bold shades of red, blue and yellow with gifts and gourmet treats ranging from speciality jams to wine pourers.
Balloons are a firm favourite with men and women to celebrate any occasion.Hampers are also extremely popular for special occasions such as Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter.Plants in pots are also very popular for festive gifts because they last for weeks, such as the red and green pointsettia and chrysanthemums because they last for ages. Combine these with seasonal treats such as chocolates, nuts, biscuits and sparkling wine and the celebrations are sure to be something special.
