Okay, so I’ve been wanting to get better at showing my appreciation, and I thought, what’s better than flowers and a heartfelt thank you? But I wanted to make it a bit more special, so I decided to combine the two: “thank you” quotes with flowers. Let me tell you how I went about it.
Getting Started – Finding the Right Flowers
First, I needed flowers. I didn’t want to just grab any old bouquet. I thought about the person I was thanking and what kind of flowers they might like. Do they love bright, cheerful colors? Or something more elegant and subdued? I ended up going to a local flower shop, just browsing, and seeing what caught my eye.
- Consider the recipient: What are their favorite colors, or flower types?
- Check the local options: I prefer real flowers over digital.
- Think about the occasion: If it’s just a general thanks, maybe go for something that makes you happy.
The Search for Quotes – What Fits the Mood?
Next up, the quotes! I wanted something that felt genuine, not too cheesy, but also not too formal. I spent a good chunk of time just scrolling through different websites and jotting down ones that resonated with me. I also looked at some greeting cards for inspiration. It was tougher than I thought to find the perfect balance!
- Brainstorm key words: Think about gratitude, appreciation, friendship, etc.
- Check quote websites: I checked online, to find something suitable.
- Greeting card: Sometime, the cards in a store has good quotes.
Putting It All Together – Combining Quotes and Flowers
This was the fun part! I experimented with a few different ways to combine the quotes and flowers.
I tried:
- Writing the quote on a small card and tucking it into the bouquet.
- Finding a pretty font and printing the quote, then attaching it to the flower pot.
- Writing the quote directly onto a flower pot with a special marker.
I found out that I prefer printing it, it is easy for me.
The Final Touch – Making it Personal
Finally, I added a personal touch. I didn’t want it to feel generic, so I wrote a short, handwritten note to go along with the flowers and the quote. It was just a few sentences explaining why I was so thankful, but I think it made all the difference.
It might seem like a small thing, but combining flowers and a thoughtful quote felt like a really meaningful way to show my appreciation. And the best part? Seeing the smile on the person’s face when they received it! It was definitely worth the effort, and I think I’ll be doing this more often.
