VIRTUAL RACES IN MICHIGAN.
[GOBBLE SOUND].
>> Jason: THERE IT IS!
[LAUGHTER]
>> Tati: WHETHER YOU PLAN TO
SPEND THANKSGIVING BY YOURSELF
OR WITH FAMILY, FLORAL
ARRANGEMENTS ARE A GREAT WAY TO
BRING NIGHT YOUR HOME.
AND CHRISTINE IS THE OWNER OF
DELLA’S TO GET US READY TO TECH
RATE OUR HOMES FOR THANKSGIVING.
THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US!
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
>> Tati: LET ME TELL YOU, I’M
READY FOR THE SEASON!
AND I’M READY FOR ALL OF THIS.
LET’S START WITH THIS: WHAT
MAKES FLORAL PIECE EYE CATCHING?
>> DEFINITELY FLORAL COLORS,
ORANGE FOR FALL IS WONDERFUL!
>> Tati: SO PRETTY.
>> AND THE YELLOWS AND ORANGES,
HOW THEY PLAY OFF EACH OTHER IS
NICE AND SEASONAL.
>> Tati: IT FEELS LIKE YOU’RE
BRINGING FALL COLORS IN FLOWER
FORM INTO OUR HOUSE.
>> YEAH.
IT CHEERS PEOPLE UP, FOR SURE.
>> Tati: SO TELL US WHAT FLORAL
ARRANGEMENTS YOU RECOMMEND FOR
AUTUMN AND THANKSGIVING.
AND LET’S DO BOTH.
WHAT YOU WANT ON THE
THANKSGIVING TABLE MIGHT BE
DIFFERENT THAN SOMETHING IN THE
HOME.
>> FOR SURE.
WHEN YOU THINK OF A CENTERPIECE,
USUALLY ALL CENTERPIECES GET IN
THE WAY OF PEOPLE SPEAKING TO
EACH OTHER ACROSS THE TABLE.
AND WHEN YOU’RE THINKING ABOUT A
THANKSGIVING CENTERPIECE, NICE
ARRANGEMENT IS THE STYLE OF THIS
IS CALLED A LOW CENTERPIECE,
ONLY 4-5 INCHES HIGH AND SPREADS
OUT ACROSS THE TABLE AND DOESN’T
TAKE UP A LOT OF ROOM.
AND THAT’S A NICE ARRANGEMENT
FOR YOUR THANKSGIVING TABLE.
BUT, YOU KNOW, YOU DON’T HAVE TO
HAVE IT ON YOUR TABLE BECAUSE
EVERYONE HAS A LOT OF FOOD ON
THEIR TABLE.
YOU KNOW, YOU CAN PICK SOMETHING
LIKE THIS AND PUT IT ON THE
BUFFET.
AND BECAUSE THERE’S BOWLS AND
BOWLS OF FOOD, USUALLY.
AND YOU DON’T WANT IT TO GET IN
THE WAY AND YOU DON’T HAVE TO
PUT SOMETHING ON YOUR TABLE.
BUT SENDING SOMETHING LIKE THIS
TO A LOVED ONE REALLY, REALLY
MAKES THEM HAPPY IF YOU CAN’T BE
WITH THEM.
AND THERE ARE OTHER THINGS, LIKE
IF YOU DON’T HAVE A HUGE, HUGE
TABLE, THERE’S LITTLE TEENY
THINGS LIKE THAT, A LITTLE
SOMETHING TO BRIGHTEN SOMEONE’S
DAY.
>> Tati: THAT’S BEAUTIFUL!
I LIKE THE LITTLE WHEAT STEMS,
GORGEOUS!
>> THANK YOU.
SO THOSE ARE YZ.
THIS ONE IN THE VASE IS
SOMETHING YOU COULD SEND FOR
FALL.
THE CENTERPIECE IS TOTALLY
THANKSGIVING.
WE’LL DON’T USUALLY GET FLOWERS
WITH CANDLES OTHER THAN FOR A
DINNER, BUT WE ALSO HAVE A
LITTLE BIT OF MODERN PUMPKIN
ARRANGEMENT, IN A WHITE PUMPKIN.
IT’S A NICER RAM MICK PUMPKIN
YOU CAN USE AFTERWARDS.
>> Tati: AND I LOVE THAT YOU
HAVE SO MANY DIFFERENT
STRATEGIES TO USE THE FLOWERS TO
DECORATE YOUR HOME.
AND I LIKE THE IDEA OF PUTTING A
BOUQUET ON THE BUFFET TEAM TO
BRIGHTEN IT UP A LITTLE BIT.
YOU’RE SAYING SOMETHING VERY
IMPORTANT BECAUSE SOME FAMILIES
MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GET TOGETHER
BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC, AND
THIS IS A GREAT WAY TO SPREAD
LOVE AND WARMTH TO OUR LOVED
ONES EVEN IF WE CAN’T BE WITH
THEM.
>> FOR SURE.
AFTER WE OPENED AROUND MOTHER’S
DAY, WE WERE SO BUSY BECAUSE
PEOPLE COULDN’T SPEND THE TIME
WITH THEIR MOMS.
MOMS ARE USUALLY OLDER.
WE’RE SO BUSY SELLING FLOWERS
BECAUSE IT’S A WAY TO LET THEM
KNOW THEY’RE THOUGHT OF.
WE CAN’T NECESSARILY BE WITH
PEOPLE RIGHT NOW.
SO IT’S A REALLY, REALLY WARM
WAY TO SAY THAT YOU LOVE THEM
WITHOUT BEING THERE, I GUESS.
>> Tati: AND LET THEM KNOW
YOU’RE THINKING ABOUT THEM.
AND THE HOLIDAY STUFF BEHIND
YOU, WHAT ARE THE TRENDS GOING
FORWARD? >> AS FAR AS CHRISTMAS, YOU
>> AS FAR AS CHRISTMAS, YOU
KNOW, THERE’S A LOT OF AMERICAN
THINGS, LIKE FOR EXAMPLE, PEOPLE
LOVE CALLEY LILIES.
IT’S A MODERN TWIST ON CHRISTMAS
BUT VERY ELEGANT.
YOU COULD PUT THIS ANYWHERE, AN
OFFICE, A FOYER, UHM, YOU KNOW,
THE BUFFET TABLE AT CHRISTMAS
OFF TO THE SIDE.
THERE’S LOTS OF BURING THINGS.
THEY DO -- THE PERMANENT
ARRANGEMENTS, A LOT BETTER THAN
THEY USED TO, AS FAR AS THE
QUALITY OF THE FLOWERS, YOU
KNOW. AND THEN WE HAVE TRADITIONAL
AND THEN WE HAVE TRADITIONAL
PIECES WITH A LITTLE SANTA BOOT.
WHAT GRANDMA WOULD NOT LIKE
THAT?
>> Tati: MY MOM WOULD LOVE
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
I COULDN’T AGREE WITH YOU MORE.
I FEEL LIKE, LET’S BRING IN THE
HOLIDAY CHEER INTO OUR HOMES
EARLIER THIS YEAR BECAUSE WE’LL
BE SPENDING A LIEUTENANT OF TIME
AT HOME, SO WHY NOT?
THAT’S WHAT I SAY.
>> EXACTLY.
FLOWERS LIFT PEOPLE’S SPIRITS.
STUDIES SHOW THAT.
SO IF YOU CAN’T BE WITH THEM,
SEND FLOWERS OR AT LEAST A CARD.
FLOWERS DO SOMETHING TO THE
ATMOSPHERE AND TOUCH PEOPLE’S
HEARTS.
FIND A LOCAL FLORIST IN THE CITY
THAT YOU’RE SENDING TO.
DO NOT USE THE SERVICES THAT
JUST TRANSFER ORDERS BECAUSE
THEY’RE NOT GONNA CARE ABOUT
YOUR ORDER LIKE I AM.
>> Tati: I LOVE THAT.
AND SPEAKING OF YOU, WHERE CAN
WE GO TO ORDER OUR HOLIDAY
CENTERPIECES AND WHERE ARE YOU
LOCATED?
>> WE’RE IN TROY ON MAPLE
BETWEEN STEPHENSON AND JOHN R.
WE HAVE THINGS FOR THANKSGIVING
AND CHRISTMAS ALREADY.
YOU CAN GO TO OUR WEBSITE OR WE
HAVE A REALLY EASY PHONE NUMBER,
248-FLOWERS.
>> Tati: I LOVE IT!
THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US
TODAY.
>> YOU’RE WELCOME.
THANKS FOR HAVING ME.
