An Easy Gift For Many Occasions

It can be very hard to find that one perfect gift for someone. How many times have you pondered over what to buy for a 36th birthday or an 18th anniversary?

Chances are, that you've been thinking way too hard!

Go to any local retail store and start browsing. What you're looking for is some type of a cup, bowl or canister. Something that is deep enough and round enough to have a plant potted inside. Now start being creative-have you thought of anything yet?

This is such a neat way to make a simple gift into a very creative and meaningful one. For example, for a birthday, you could find a mug that says "happy birthday grandma" on it and plant grandma's favorite flower inside. Other ideas would be to find a cute canister of some sort or to find a small, rubber, child sized boot. Look for any original object that isn't a pot that could hold a flower.

Then, head to your local florist (or certain retail stores) and choose a plant or flowers that will fit inside your new "pot". Now plant the flowers and add a bow and voila!! This thoughtful gift will be enjoyed by the recipient and everyone else at the party!
