Designed Paint CanDesigned Paint Cans can make great “gift wraps”! Talking about personalized gifts…  what an ingenious idea! The moment I read about it I knew I had to share!

So, here we go: Amy has a step-by-step tutorial on this at Prairie Paper & Ink . It seems to be very easy to follow and Amy even made greeting cards to match the can!

Other cool examples can be found at TipJunkie , Stampin’ and Scrappin’ with Kristin

 Ever since antiquity, flowers have been a symbol of Love, tenderness and romance. They may be a classic choice for a gift but they always put a smile on some-one’s face and touch the heart!

Here are a few online resources you might want to check out. And because they are ALL fabulous, complex and offer a lot of choices (same day delivery, message with product, shop by occasion), I only mention what sets them apart. They are in alphabetical order. This list will be updated once in a while.

  • Dutch Gardens If your sweetheart loves to grow flowers, to create and design her own garden, then this is the right choice! Dutch Gardens sells the finest bulbs in a huge variety of colors! On their website you can read articles about gardening, garden design, etc and you can request a free catalog. The bulbs are grown in Holland. My favorite article on their website is: Create Your Dream Garden
  • Fleurop-Interflora is an International Network of florists serving 150 countries. Their website is very flexible: you can shop by flower, by occasion, by gift and more! What I really enjoyed on this website, besides the elegant floral arrangements, bouquets and gift choices, was the information(articles) on flower symbology and flower meanings. What I also noticed was that they offer airline miles and reward points for the Hilton family hotels.
  • Flower.com – absolutely gorgeous! They have a comprehensive (I mean COMPREHENSIVE!) collection of fresh flowers, plants, stylish floral arrangements and gift baskets. You can search by occasion. A nice feature: you can add balloons, chocolate, cookies and teddy bears during check-out. The fresh flowers are delivered by a local florist. Flower.com offers same day delivery on select products. I think my favorite products are the Love Flowers
  • FlowerStore.com – another favorite of mine! Gorgeous flowers, gifts, arrangements and bouquets! Some of the features that I find very convenient: future shipping date, gift card (it can be e-mailed to the recipient or just printed and given personally); shop by price. My favorites are probably the Just Because Flowers. On their website I enjoyed the article about color meanings in flowers.
  • FromYouFlowers.com – offers wonderful flower and gift basket choices! You can choose by color, price, occasion. You also have the choice of sending a personalized message with every product. A variety of cakes, fruit baskets, chocolate baskets, wine baskets and spa baskets are available to choose from. Same day delivery is available on select products. It is hard to choose your favorite, but if I were to choose one type of flower arrangement from their website, I would probably choose the Lilies Collection…
  • 1-800-FLOWERS.COM- is probably one of the most popular flower websites out there! The website offers not only gorgeous flowers, floral arrangements and plants but also gourmet gift baskets, wine and cheese gift baskets, cookies and cakes, fruit gift baskets, chocolate gift baskets and much more! It could be your one-stop gift store. What I found very convenient was their Gift Reminder system (they call it subscription) that allows you to set your important dates or just e-mail others asking for their birthdays. They deliver in over 47 countries. It’s definitely worth checking!
