Happy Thanksgiving! From the Julia’s Florist family to yours, we hope you are surrounded by friends and family and enjoying delicious food. We love this holiday for many reasonsā¦ the juicy turkey (of course), the camaraderie with loved ones, football, dog shows, and Macyās parade, too. We adore this holiday so much weāve written several blogs about it for your enjoyment and to get into the turkey spirit! Most of all, though, we love this holiday because itās about sharing, the inclusion of all races and religions, and giving thanks. Regardless of the type of year weāve had, itās important to focus on the positives. Plus, after Thanksgiving, the Christmas holiday season is officially upon us on and before you know it, New Yearās will be here. But for now, letās enjoy another slice of pumpkin pie and laughter around a fire with the people we love.
One of the most exciting parts about Thanksgiving ā at least to us here at Juliaās Florist ā is what goes on the dining table. No, we donāt mean food, though the feast itself certainly gets top billing at our house. Itās the flowers, and specifically, the centerpiece.
This Thanksgiving, if youāre looking for a way to step outside of tradition and design an original, creative way to celebrate the holiday, think about hosting a picnic-style Thanksgiving.
At Juliaās Florist, serving Wilmington and the surrounding areas, our professional florists and gift designers have been busy putting together a list of thoughtful and creativity hostess gifts that would be perfect for anyone whoās hosting your Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving dinner.
Thanksgiving is a holiday born out of meaningful tradition and sentiments. The gathering commonly accepted as representing the first Thanksgiving meal took place in Plymouth Meeting, Massachusetts in 1621.
Thanksgiving is arguably our countryās oldest holiday. It is one that is steeped in traditions, many of which connect us to the season, and to the importance of yearly harvests.
On November 26th, when you gather around a beautifully decorated table with you friends, family members and other loved ones, take a moment to remember our nationās history.
Even if cold temperatures and gray skies make what is actually still fall, feel like winter, Thanksgiving is inching up on us. Unpredictable weather makes it difficult for anyone to feel the spirit of the holiday ā at least weather wise.
When executed correctly, the holiday table is a thing of beauty. From the festive place settings to the mouth-watering turkey fresh from the oven, getting together with loved ones is the most beloved aspect of our Thanksgiving celebrations.
