Where Being LOCAL Really Matters!

Fine Florals for Your Host

In the U.S. and across the globe, it's customary to provide a host or hostess with a gift in thanks. Especially when that event is an elaborate effort, like Thanksgiving. Ideally, we offer flowers, fruit baskets, or other food gifts, all of which we at Bice's Florist can help you select. But when it comes to flowers, there are a few important considerations. It's traditional to offer them in a vase, for one. The flowers should be accommodating in both color scheme and type. Since we often don't know our host's exact tastes, it's best to choose something that is an all-around crowd-pleaser. Read More about Fine Florals for Your Host »

Gifts of Kindness on Sweetest Day

Are you familiar with Sweetest Day? If not, you should be. This wonderful little holiday observance is popular throughout the Midwest and Northeast, and has been around for approximately 100 years. Originally established by candy companies who donated boxes of sweets to those in need, the day has evolved to represent any sweet gestures made to help someone who may need encouragement. So whether you want to cheer up your favorite aunt who is recuperating from an illness, or to encourage the single mom working hard every day - October 21 is the perfect day to send your best wishes. And Bice's Florist has the sweetest floral designs and gifts to help you! A Little History: The original efforts by candy company executives were met by cynicism, as skeptics suspected the businessmen of attempting to start yet another commercial holiday that benefited their pocketbooks. However, it never did catch on as a "candy" holiday, more as a day for acts of kindness.  Read More about Gifts of Kindness on Sweetest Day »

Flowers & Plants for Housewarming Parties

If you have ever moved into a new home, especially in a new area, you know that the whole process can be a bit stressful. Between wrangling hundreds of boxes, several children, and figuring out when the internet company will be showing up, there is a lot going on. It can be a relief when the knock at the door reveals a friendly face offering a home cooked meal, a helping hand, or simply a smile to say "welcome to the neighborhood". If one of your family members or friends have moved, you may wish to help them settle in and feel like they are home. History tells us that the original housewarming parties, hundreds of years ago, were arranged to provide firewood to new homeowners so they could survive the winter - quite literally "house-warming". But times have changed, and Bice's Flowers has the floral arrangements and plants that will instead warm their hearts and help to make their house a home.  Read More about Flowers & Plants for Housewarming Parties »

Flowers & Gifts for Grandparents Day

Whether you call them Nana, Gramps, Papa, or Mimi - there is no denying that grandparents capture a special place in our heart. September 10 is Grandparents Day, which gives you the ideal opportunity to express your gratitude and affection. Marian McQuade is the mother and grandmother behind Grandparents Day, a time set aside to not only recognize the older generation for all they do and contribute, but to encourage the sharing of stories, wisdom, and family history.  Ms. McQuade envisioned families gathering, holding reunions, and even volunteering or participating in community events together. The goal of the day? To foster strong family ties and create an ongoing legacy. At Bice's Florist, we think that is a fantastic vision to celebrate.  Read More about Flowers & Gifts for Grandparents Day »
