When it comes to giving a gift that speaks from the heart, few things compare to the timeless beauty of flowers. And while all floral gifts are special, hand-tied bouquets hold a charm and character all their own. Here’s why hand-tied bouquets are the perfect gift – whether you’re celebrating a birthday, saying thank you, or simply making someone’s day a little brighter.
What is a Hand-Tied Bouquet?
The name refers to the technique used by the florist to make the floral arrangement. The flowers are all chosen individually and placed one by one into a hand. This way the arrangement is built up one flower stem at a time. Once complete the stems are tied, hence the name hand-tied.
This type of bouquet is both personal and thoughtful. Each one is individually made by a person, there is no mass production on a mechanical production line. They’re made by a person from start to finish giving them a more intimate and meaningful feel.
They can come in different shapes and sizes and can be placed into vases or other containers such as aqua boxes. Aquaboxes are a popular way for florists to display hand-tied bouquets for their customers to transport and gift hand-tied arrangements. They’re sometimes called eco-vases and allow for a water source to help keep the flowers fresh.
Hand-tied bouquets allow each flower to shine and are ideal for all occasions. From birthdays and anniversaries to new jobs, housewarmings, or just because. Their versatility and personal touch means they feel appropriate for any moment that calls for a gesture of beauty and care.
They’re Locally Made with Love
Buying a hand-tied bouquet from a local market stall supports a small business. You’re giving more than flowers – you’re gifting craftsmanship and the personal touch.
If you’re looking for a meaningful, beautiful gift that’s ready to give – a hand-tied bouquet might be just perfect.
