Flowers For Dreams + Valentine's Day Giveaway

It's that time of year! Mushy, lovely Valentine's Day. I admittedly love this darn holiday — reds and pinks and flowers and candy and all-over cuteness. This year I am so stoked to share a few things: Flowers For Dreams's new subscription program and a special Valentine's Day bouquet giveaway that will go live on the @minipennyblog Instagram later this week.

Okay, for starters, I have written about my love for Flowers for Dreams in the past. They're a great local business that has gorgeous bouquets (hand delivered!) and gives back to local charities with each purchase. Every bouquet I've gotten from Flowers for Dreams has been beautiful and totally brings life to the room. And now with the new subscription program, you can have a bouquet delivered to you each month, biweekly, or weekly. And if you suddenly realize it's your mom's birthday this week? No worries, you can reroute your bouquet to go to her.

But, hey, why not spread the love? Personally, I think a fresh subscription like this is such a killer gift — if any friend or my significant other sent these my way, I'd be stoked. Not only would it mean beautiful flowers every few weeks, but it would also be supporting a great Chicago small business and charities.

Want to try a Flowers for Dreams bouquet this Valentine's Day? Send it to your love, your best friend, your bae, your secret crush, or keep it for yourself (because loving yourself is important too!). Keep your eyes peeled and check the @minipennyblog Instagram this Friday for instructions on how you can get one of your very own.
