Alternative to flowergrams!
Agnes, Lovebox Sweden |3/10, 2023
Hello there! Are you looking to woo your partner? Do you have something to celebrate or maybe you just want to celebrate your partner? Maybe you've done the classic thing and made a mistake in your relationship and now you want to compensate by sending flowers? The reasons for wanting to send flowers can be many, and rightly so! We think you should take action when you feel like doing something for your partner <3
But are flowers starting to get boring? Do they often die after a short time? Personally, I'm really bad at taking care of flowers and it feels like the second they end up with me they start to wither ;-) Although I appreciate the gesture of course! Better flowers than nothing :)
But let's take a look at what other options there are and their advantages and disadvantages!
8 tips for alternatives to flower delivery:
- Chocolate or candy basket: Delicious and certainly appreciated by many. But if you are trying to live a little healthier, it may not be exactly what you want. But you can vary the contents and it doesn't have to be very expensive either. If you make the gift yourself, it will take some of your time to find the right basket/gift box and fill it with the items, as well as decorate the box yourself. In addition, there are often outrageous prices on gift boxes and gift baskets in stores, so that in the end it becomes very expensive.
- Personal gift box or gift basket: It's a bit of the same argument here as above. It can be expensive and time-consuming to throw together a basket that you're happy with. The advantage here is that you can include the recipient's own favorite products such as tea, coffee, beauty products or gourmet food. At Lovebox Sweden we have ready-made gift boxes at reasonable prices. Getting a gift box from Lovebox Sweden breathes luxury because we've worked hard to find stable and durable quality boxes so you don't have to wander around looking for them :)
- Scented candles or aromatherapy sets: A scented candle set with different scents or an aromatherapy gift allows the recipient to enjoy and relax. There are ready-made sets in stores and I am sure that it is an appreciated gift for many. That is why we at Lovebox Sweden have included this in our own boxes. The disadvantage may be that you need to know your recipient. Are scents something that the person appreciates or does it give them a headache instead? :)
- Personal photo album or photo frame: Talk about a wonderfully personal gift to receive! Think about collecting memories in a beautiful photo album or sending a nice photo frame with a memorable photo. Wow! But also imagine the combination of this + the gift box. Or this + the gift box + an experience where you do something together and then also get the gift. That must be the most maximized! The disadvantage here is that you may not have good photos yet or if you do not have the time to wait for photos to be printed, I would say.
- Experience gift: Give them an experience like a spa day, cooking class, concerts, theater tickets or adventure activities like skydiving or hot air ballooning. It's a bit more expensive and is probably much appreciated by the recipient, especially if you can do the things together. But you shouldn't forget the physical aspect of this, that you have a memory of the experience after the experience is over. That's why I think a physical gift in conjunction with an experience gift is the maximum :) If it's "just" a restaurant visit that you're invited to!
- Handwritten letter or card: Another personal favorite and not only that, we make sure your Lovebox includes this part.
- DIY gift ("Do it yourself"): Make something yourself, like a homemade cake, hand-painted ceramic products or crocheted items. I think this is very much appreciated and if you are not creative or skilled enough yourself, you can get help from us at Lovebox Sweden :)
- Personalised jewellery: A piece of jewellery with their initials, date of birth or another personal touch can be a memorable gift. This is an absolute favourite too. But, it can be expensive and it can take time to get it engraved. Then she needs to like it too :) So it's a bit risky! Our gift boxes for girls include a piece of jewellery with a nice message, if you prefer that, until you get to know her taste and preferences properly :)
