Happy holiday flowers to cheer somebody up
The holidays are often associated with happy family memories, gifts, and perhaps an excess of your favourite foods. For some, however, the holidays are not easy to deal with and the circumstances can lead to the onset of depression. That’s why you should considering sending some happy holiday flowers to brighten their day.
Grieving a loss
A common cause of Christmas sadness is the loss of a loved one. As experts know, everyone grieves in their own way and there is no way of knowing how long it will take that person to accept their loss. The loss of a spouse or a child are two of the most devastating losses of all, but any loss can make the hole in your heart even bigger. A recent breakup, separation or divorce can also make someone feel lonely and unhappy during the holiday season, as can work issues like losing their job. Happy holiday flowers could be just what they need to carry them through.
Work trouble
When someone you love encounters a devastating obstacle right before Christmas, it’s good to be prepared. You should be ready to offer support, but don’t be offended if they reject you. Stress and pain can cause people to act and react in ways they normally wouldn’t, and you should never take offence. If you are worried about overstepping the boundaries, you can opt for happy holiday flowers to be sent straight from your florist. Place your flower order online, add a little extra if you like, and don’t forget to include a personal message.
Thoughtful delivery
If you wish to deliver a bouquet of happy holiday flowers in person and feel it is appropriate, have the flowers delivered to your address and go to your loved one’s home on the same day. They may not be in the Christmas mood, so if you want to avoid the Christmas theme, you should avoid bouquets that include red, white and green elements. Look for something more like a mixed floral arrangement with several warm colours. These warm colours will help brighten up your home and improve your mood without making you think about Christmas. Sometimes, after the loss of a loved one or during a difficult period, people prefer not to decorate their home for the holidays. You don’t want your flowers to go against these wishes, which is another reason to avoid the Christmas theme.
Sweeten it up
If you wish, you can also add something interesting, like a box of chocolates, to your flower order. Alternatively, you can also send a gift basket. Look for a basket that includes different types of foods and snacks with a long shelf life. Your loved one may not be in the mood to enjoy them right away, so you don’t want them to get ruined. It’s also a good idea to look for an alcohol-free gift basket, as food is more important than alcohol during these times.
Finally, always pay attention to your loved one’s verbal and non-verbal language. When you visit, you won’t want to overstay your welcome and they may be too polite to ask you to leave. Spend a few minutes together, have a meaningful conversation, or even cry, but don’t stay too long unless you are specifically invited. Sometimes people need time and space to breathe as part of the healing process. When you have a bouquet of happy holiday flowers delivered, you are sending them a message of support without overwhelming them by paying them a visit when they might not be up for guests.
