Gather Your Friends Around This Table Of Flowers

.single #maincontent .img-featured { object-position: bottom; } Often when we think of Thanksgiving, we think about tradition. Cultural traditions, family traditions, and culinary traditions take over before our imaginations have a chance to participate. This year, try thinking a little more creatively for a refreshing departure from the typical Thanksgiving. For example, instead of a formal dinner of over-indulgence, invite friends and family to a cocktail party Thanksgiving. Let guests enjoy trying new flavors and combinations and bring mixology recipes to share. An hors d’oeuvres table can still be dressed with your finest Thanksgiving linens and stemware, with beautiful Thanksgiving decor to tie the event together. Include a beautiful centerpiece from Cityline Florist to bring fresh new ideas together with comfortable traditions. Read More about Gather Your Friends Around This Table Of Flowers »

Flowers As Dazzling As Fireworks

Who says your 4th of July flowers have to be red, white and blue? Certainly not us here at City Line Florist. Don't get us wrong, the classic American color scheme expresses pride, a sense of tradition and a whole lot of dignity. It references our flag, of course, and these are the colors we have long identified as reflecting our spunky, independent spirit and our rich history. But with plenty of patriotic decor options out there, we've likely got our national spirit covered. There's room for a floral design that takes a different approach.

A wise Gift For Dad

“I believe that what we become depends on what our fathers teach us at odd moments, when they aren’t trying to teach us. We are formed by the little scraps of wisdom.” -Umberto Eco The wisdom our fathers impart to us throughout our lives becomes a valuable part of who we are. As such, we should celebrate the men in our lives that fill this role. This year, Father’s Day is June 17th and the artistic designers at City Line Florist are ready with a variety of gifts and greenery to celebrate dads. Whether you’re planning to send a traditional arrangement, a fun gift basket full of goodies or a custom design that’s as unique as your dad, we have everything you need and we’re ready to help you choose the perfect way to say “Happy Father’s Day.” Read More about A wise Gift For Dad »
