Love the veggies & fruit baskets. Yummy & really creative. Thank you for sharing.
Fruit baskets are our #1 best sellers. I’m glad you agree! The vegies are just catching on (we are trying to be a healthy society, aren’t we?) and they are so much fun to design!
Since i am the “boss” haha jk, i will take the fruit basket.. yes i am off the sweets!
I know, I’m SO PROUD of you!!! email me your home address.!
What are you sending me? the address is 119 rockland center, ste 215, nanuet, ny 10954
Don’t you like surprises???
Oh, all are lovely! What a great idea! Thanks for sharing these beautiful arrangements.
Thanks, Alexandra. Flowers make you feel really special!
those flowers are looking very good and I love that idea of yours as well.
Thanks so much. Boss’s Day has been around for a long time. Workers usually take up a collection and send The Big Guy something special next Wednesday.
I think the Cookie basket is my favorite! Since I am my own boss, I may have to treat myself to something special!
I think you have the answer, Amy! Why wait for someone else to treat you to something special like cookies? Send out an Executive Order for a basket full of Tina’s Cookies!!
Love the fruit basket for myself since I don’t have a boss!
You’ve got the right idea, Jenny!! Of course boss’s day is just one reason to send a beautiful fruit basket. There are many others, and of course Thanksgiving and Christmas are upon us very soon, too!
I love the creative baskets you have here. I would love to get the fruit basket. I have no one to send it too though. Since i’m the boss 🙂
Kelly, you are not the first, nor I’m sure will you be the last, to tell me you are the boss and therefore you can’t get one of these fruit baskets. Perhaps you might who someone who is a boss and would love to get one of these! Please feel free to pass this information along to everyone you know! Thanks!
I’ll have to remind my husband!
Now THAT is a great idea!!!
Good reminder to thank you boss (if applicable) next week. I really like having options other than flowers. I know mine would love cookies!
Yes, I would say cookies are the biggest seller for Boss’s Day (usually because the senders hope the boss will share them!).
Love these ideas for Boss’s Day! Thanks!
You’re welcome! I hope you remember these for days other than Boss’s Day, too!
I love the junk basket!! That is definitely the one that anyone who knows me well would send. LOL>
You and me, Tracie! And I have the hips to show it!!! Sure, I design and deliver a lot of fruit and even vegies, but I’ll take the cookies and junk baskets any day!
What a great idea… trouble is I’ve always been the boss first when we were farming and then later in an antique store. To me nothing says “I appreciate you” more than flowers. A great promotional idea.
Thanks, Shirley. I can’t take credit for National Boss’s Day (always on October 16th)!!
Great ideas. I will be a boss soon and would love some of these as gifts 🙂
Thanks, Shannah! When you’re a boss, don’t forget your secretary/admin in the spring!!
Hmmm.. since I work from home I guess I am my own boss. These look like a nice treat.
I think being your own boss is grand (I’m my own boss, too) and that also means it’s OK to give yourself a treat on boss’s day! Think about it!
lovely reasons for some flowers on a day like this..
Thanks. Remember this: you don’t need a reason to send flowers to your wife!
This is my first year in over 20 that I don’t have a boss to buy a gift for! Now that I’m self-employed, I might have to get myself some flowers!
A lot of people buy flowers for themselves! Why not? Just remember to contact your LOCAL flower shop, not an “order gatherer” like ftd, teleflora, 1800flowers, fromyouflowers, proflowers, jusflowers, etc. Make sure the flower shop has a local address and phone number (aka you can walk in and pick up the flowers yourself!)
Thanks for the reminder!
Yes, we all need a friendly reminder, don’t we?
I happen to be a boss. I wonder if any of my employees will get me anything 🙂
They will, Victoria, if you print this blog and leave it on their desk!!
I’m my own boss. Maybe I will buy these for myself then!
I think that’s the best idea of all! After all, being the boss is a lot of work, even if your only “help” is yourself!
Oh I didn’t know there was a “Bosses Day” – thanks for letting us know!
National Boss’s Day is always October 16. I could guess who “invented” it … maybe Mr. Hallmark? or a smart restaurantier? Or a nasty boss who wanted his secretary (they were probably called secretary in that day) to make him feel special? Who knows! All I know for sure is bosses all over expect something on Boss’s Day and they reciprocate on Secretary/Admin Day in the spring. That’s what makes the corporate world go ’round!!
My boss is my mother so I better go all out. maybe I should get them all… although she is particularly fond of chocolate.
My mom is a chocoholic, too! I send her chocolate all the time! Perhaps you should consider sending her a chocolate basket after all!
These are very cute …if I had a great boss I would buy something like this.
Nicole, that’s exactly why people send these to their bosses!!
OOh! I love the veggie basket – it’s definitely an expected twist on floral baskets!
The vegie basket is great for people who are watching their weight, their health and their wastelines!
What an awesome list of gifts! Luckily I am my own boss now.. should I treat myself to a gift? I want to!
Absolutely you should treat yourself to a gift! You’re worth it!
But of course you should treat yourself to a gift on Boss’s Day! I can think of 2 reasons right off the top of my head: 1) You’re the boss and 2) You deserve it!!
Fantastic idea!!!! I don’t think we even have a boss’s day in Oz lol! The fruit one looks awesome!
If there isn’t a boss’s day, then by all means create one! Treat yourself because you deserve it!
I like the idea of celebrating boss’ day. Perhaps even more now that I have been self employed for many years.
If you are self employed, then YOU are the boss! I think next Wednesday you should visit your local flower shop and buy yourself some well-deserved flowers!
I work at home and I am my own boss! Perhaps I will treat myself! I love the veggie basket, I don’t think I have ever seen any thing like that.
Yes, Cynthia, the vegie basket is pretty unique! I came up with it last Christmas when a customer just couldn’t decide what to send. I listen to a person with all ears before we make a decision about a gift, and this one was right up the recipient’s alley. Boy, did it hit the spot, too, when it was delivered! I hope it will be one of my best sellers this coming holiday.
This is a wonderful idea to send flowers to your boss and say thank you.
I think it’s nice to say “thank you” to the boss once a year. I lot of places take up a collection. Some places the people do it on their own. Either way, it’s a great gesture.
Boss’s Day is a pretty unique opportunity to say Thanks to the big guy (or gal). I know I did it every year when I had a boss. This year, and every year since I’m not in the corporate world, I say Thank You to myself with flowers on boss’s day!
Receiving flowers is my absolute favorite gift. I’m with Dawn maybe I should send them to myself 😉
I agree with you and Dawn 100%. Try it and let me know how it makes you feel!! Walk into a flower shop and use your nose (yes, smell) to pick out what you like. Use the fragrance first, then the colors. If you always thought you “don’t like” a certain flowers, give it a second chance! You’ll find flowers brighten your day every day.
Love your creative floral designs Tina. My eye is also drawn to the fruit and veggie baskets…any boss receiving one of these beautiful creations will be honored for sure.
Thanks so much!! I really appreciate your compliments.
They are so pretty and thoughtful,a promotion is guaranteed lol
Thanks, Amy! Boss’s Day is a fun day for bosses and for employees, too!
What a great thing to do if you have a GOOD boss.
And if you don’t? Then coal (like at Christmas!!!) Actually, I have wondered about this myself, especially when I was in the corporate world. I remember sending a green plant to a boss that was.. well… not really nice, and I had to take care of it! But it was something that reminded me that I’m a nice person even if he weren’t so nice!
Those are great gift ideas!
Yes, I think so too! Boss’s Day is a great day to remember one person, and these are ideas for all the time!
What lovely arrangements! Surely any boss who receives one of these baskets would surely love the idea. Would it be possible to combine the contents of any of the baskets like some flowers and fruits?
Lori, you hit the nail on the head! The beauty of being a gift basket store inside a flower shop means we can combine everything! I do a lot of fruit with cookies or muffins, and of course gourmet. I love to add flowers to the top of the baskets, too. All you have to do is let me know what you’re looking for (it’s not necessarily on the Internet) and I work my magic!!
