We love this party that was sent in from a blumebox customer.

The birthday girl, Tara loves sweets, so an ice cream / candy party was the perfect choice for her 5th birthday celebration.  They chose to host the event at Farrell’s Ice Cream Parlor which recently opened at The Mission Viejo Shops, in Orange County, California.

Sheri Valainis Events, helped to completely transform the space into a magical, sweet candy palace. They alternated between ice cream sundae centerpieces and glass jars filled with sundae toppings. To tie the look together, they created whimsical marabou ice cream cone centerpieces with hot pink and lime green blumeboxes set on each end.

To add to the ambiance, they created a candy table straight out of Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory. The kids loved it. They kept the children busy with ice cream and candy related crafts and ice cream themed games. A great time was had by all.

Thank you Tara for sharing your magical 5th birthday party with us all!

Easter is just around the corner and the 4″ blumeboxes are a perfect fit for all the spring potted plants that are starting to pop up at the nurseries. Pot plants of different kinds inside spring colors of blumeboxes and cluster along the table this Easter. Or use them as place cards for your guests by personalizing them with our new scalloped cards!

Thank you Sumer for sharing your fabulous bridal bouquets from your wedding that were displayed in personalized blumeboxes!

April, owner of Mocha Rose Floral Designs suggested the blumboxes as a way to transport her bouquets in the summer heat (they were married in July). Her bridal party bouquets arrived in style to their hotel suite, and they soon discovered that they would make for a great photo op!

We love finding multiple uses for things, so when Christine Saunders from The Spiraled Stem sent on this wedding, we were so pleased to see the blumeboxes used as centerpieces all the while calling out the table numbers.

Christine started with the 6″ white blumebox, wrapped it with chocolate brown satin ribbon, stamped out the table number on paper and adhered it to the middle of the box.

Another stunning color combo courtesy of the talented team at Courtenay Lambert Floral.

The pale accents of pink and orange blend beautifully together creating one timeless bridal bouquet. Of course we love the pop of passion pink and accent of black ribbon that comes through on the vase!

To top things off, the blumeboxes are personalized with the bride and grooms name and wedding date.

We love being surprised by color palettes, and this wedding whose flowers were designed by the talented Courtenay Lambert Florals, is no exception!

The purple and orange combination of this wedding compliments one another beautifully right down to the detailed decor on the blumeboxes! Just the simple consideration to pinch the ribbon at the center adds a depth to the design that we will have to incorporate on some of our floral designs!

Thank you for the inspiration Courtenay!
