Father-in-Law Appreciation

Thank your father-in-law today, if you can. It's his special day: Father-in-Law Day is July 30. Don't miss the opportunity!

And ... More Family!

Are you close to your aunt and uncle? Spend a lot of time with them? Wish you could spend a lot of time with them, if they live out of town, out of state, or out of the country?

Today's the day to take a moment.

It's Aunt and Uncle Day. Celebrate your parents' siblings (biological, adopted, honorary, doesn't matter). Try a flower arrangement or a dish garden, just as an extension of your gratitude.

And tomorrow, July 27, is Parents' Day. Sure, they've got separate holidays too (Mother's Day; Father's Day), but why not pick up something the two of them can enjoy together? Think a restaurant gift card, or a few rounds of miniature golf, or a gift card to see a movie.

Who doesn't like to be appreciated every now and then?

Celebrate Family

It's Cousins Day today. Take a moment to appreciate your extended family, whether nearby or far away.

And consider dropping by Paul Wood Florist to order or pick up some flowers. Nothing says "I love you" and "Thank you for being you" like a beautiful floral arrangement!

Got a Hammock Somewhere?

Today's the day to take advantage! It's Hammock Day.

Find even twenty minutes to catch a quick nap outdoors. We're hoping for sunny skies and a cool breeze instead of thunderstorms, on your behalf!

Lollipops and Ice Cream, Oh My!

Tomorrow is a day to celebrate being childlike.

July 20 is National Ice Cream Day (it's the third Sunday of the month of July every year, so that date changes) and National Lollipop Day.

Buy yourself an ice cream cone or a lollipop and re-live childhood for a few minutes!

Cows Need Appreciation Too!

Today is Cow Appreciation Day.

No, we're not kidding.

We really don't have any idea who might be interested in celebrating the holiday, unless you're a rancher, but if you find yourself in contact today with something black-and-white or brown that says "Moo," take just a second to be thankful.

Disclaimer: We do not recommend that you approach or try to touch strange animals. If you choose do so and get kicked, bitten, or otherwise attacked, Paul Wood Florist will not be held responsible.

Looking to Serve?

If you're looking for a community service project just for a day, we've got a deal for you.

Today is Cheer Up the Lonely Day (and World Population Day). If there's someone in your office, or your neighborhood, or your church, or your circle of friends that you notice is usually on the outskirts, think about a way to brighten that person's day today.

Say it with flowers or a lovely green plant (we've got dozens of options).

Say it with a kind word of encouragement.

Or say it with a smile ... perhaps the best option of all.

National Strawberry Sundae Day

It's National Strawberry Sundae Day, which only just overshadows the fact that it's also Chocolate Day. Enjoy something strawberry- or chocolate-flavored today!

Happy 4th of July!

Paul Wood Florist will be closed today in honor of the 4th of July.

Have an excellent holiday, filled with barbecues, swimming, picnics, and (safe) fireworks, and we'll see you back here tomorrow (Saturday) at 9:00 a.m.!

Now We're Really Into Summer!

Welcome to July! One half of the year is officially gone --- does that make anybody else look at the clock and wonder where the time has gone?

Today is Canada Day (sing "O Canada" in its honor). Today is also International Joke Day (if you know any good jokes, pass them on!) And today is Creative Ice Cream Flavors Day (maple bacon ice cream, anyone?).

Here are two more summer arrangements that we're featuring on our website in our Summer category:

Beautiful orchids, freesia, and anthurium combine in a splashy, summery design!



This rose arrangement comes with mixed blooms in summery colors (orange, peach, yellow, pink, purple, green, and more).


Click either of the design titles above to go directly to the product page and order.

What are your plans for the 4th of July? Let us know!
