The Sweetest Bouquets For Your Girls

Did you ever wish there was a holiday that was entirely devoted to celebrating the friendships among women? Well, we here at Bice's Florist are here to tell you that there is, and it's been around in some form or another since 2010, when it made its first appearance in the NBC comedy Parks and Recreation. Galentine's Day falls on February 13th, the day before the holiday we traditionally associate with romance. These days, women are celebrating by going out to lunch or having a fun night out and exchanging gifts. Read More about The Sweetest Bouquets For Your Girls »

A Year In Flowers

While we want to offer you a Happy New Year from Bice's Florist, we also want to help you keep that most important of resolutions. No, we're not talking about your diet or working out. We're talking about making sure you always have fresh flowers in the house. Even better, we've made it so you don't even have to remember to get them. Read More about A Year In Flowers »

Send Some Healing Flowers

What's the quickest way to help someone heal? If you ask us here at Bice's Flowers, we say a pretty arrangement of fresh blooms. And research supports our thinking: a 2008 study conducted by the American Society for Horticultural Science showed that hospital patients that had flowers or potted plants in their rooms used less pain medication and had lower blood pressure. A researcher at Rutgers found that when someone receives flowers, their happiness over it lasts several days, and contact with friends and family is increased in the exchange of flowers.

Rustic Arrangements for Veterans Day

America The Beautiful Long ago, in 1926, President Calvin Coolidge was asked to officially declare that on November 11, Americans would celebrate "Armistice Day." A way to commemorate the end of WWI - which had ended on the same day in 1918 - the U.S. would join Canada, Australia and Great Britain in celebrating armistice. Eventually, Armistice Day evolved into Veterans Day, with its own flag, own rituals and slightly different angle; instead of commemorating the end of WWI, we now honor all retired and active military who have served. We have parades, festivals, marches and 5K runs, and thanks to Bice's Florist, we have rustic arrangements to send our vets, too. Read More about Rustic Arrangements for Veterans Day »

Boss’s Day Flowers & Gifts

In 1958, a woman named Patricia Bays Haroski had an idea. As an employee at Chicago-based State Farm Insurance, she thought that a day set aside to enhance and encourage positive employee/employer relationships could create a more positive workplace overall. Four years after proposing her idea to the Illinois government, governor Otto Kerner made the observance official. Although the day was never made a federal holiday, it is recognized across the country, as well as in South Africa, India and Australia. If you work in Fort Worth and have a great employer, National Boss's Day is the perfect time to show them appreciation. Gather a few of your coworkers, and check out the online collections at Bice's Florist - we are happy to deliver direct to your office on October 16.  Read More about Boss’s Day Flowers & Gifts »

Administrative Professionals Week Begins April 23rd

As World War 2 came to a close and businesses began to get back to normal, the need for people to rejoin the workplace was great. Secretaries Day was instituted in the 1950's as a way to encourage people to choose the career and to help companies - locally, regionally, and nationally - to prosper. Through the years the terminology has changed and the roles have evolved, but we still celebrate those who are often unsung heroes in our businesses. National Administrative Professionals Week is observed from April 23rd-April 29th, and is designed to recognize the receptionists, assistants, and support employees that work diligently every day to keep our businesses, and by extension, our economy, running smoothly. What would we do without them? At Bice's Florist, we are privileged to help you to honor these important employees, with our collection of flowers and plants designed to brighten their desk and their day.  Read More about Administrative Professionals Week Begins April 23rd »

Creative Secret Santa Gifts They’ll Love

Secret Santa gift exchanges are a great way for large families, a group of friends, or office colleagues to get into the Christmas spirit without having to spend large amounts of money. Although the rules vary from place to place, generally smaller gifts are given throughout a period of time leading up to the holiday, with a larger gift at the end. It is, of course, anonymous - and generally speaking, allows for creative gift giving to one person, instead of worrying about buying for everyone on a larger list. At Bice's Florist, we'd love to help you to be the best Santa in your group - with fun, beautiful and creative Secret Santa gifts they will love to receive.
