30th July - International Day of Friendship

by Edjolyn Enriquez in News

We’ve got Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and pretty much a national day for everything. From eating your vegetables to a day all about photography, there’s a national day for every interest and activity. But what about our friendships?

Our friendships are one of the most important parts of our lives. And yet, do we ever truly celebrate them as we should?

Enter International Day of Friendship.

On the 30^th of July, we celebrate the International Day of Friendship. And at Eternal Petals, we think we should all be making a much bigger day of this event.

Show your best friends what they really mean to you and make this national day as big as you would for Mother’s and Father’s Day!

How? – Send her some beautiful long-lasting roses to show her how much you care.

Flowers for International Day of Friendship

Not sure which long-lasting roses to choose for your best mate? Follow our top tips on how to choose roses for your friend on Friendship Day.

Traditional Yellow for Friendship

Wondering what the traditional colour of roses is to symbolise friendship? It’s perfect for this time of year which makes it a great choice for International Friendship Day. Yellow.

Yellow roses are both a symbol of friendship and celebration which makes them ideal for this special day. Plus, they’re a bright, beautiful and joyful way to brighten up your best friend’s home.

Our bumblebee yellow roses do just the trick.

Choose Their Favourite Colour

If yellow isn’t for them, don’t worry. With our huge selection of hues, you can simply choose their favourite colour and send them a stunning box of long-lasting roses in their go-to palette.

Whether you know they love soft and subtle pastel peach or you think luxe midnight blue roses would make them swoon, choose their favourite colour for Friendship Day.

Pick a Colour to Suit Their House

Another way to choose the perfect box of roses for your BFF is to match them up with their home. Maybe they’re into bright statement colours or maybe they like to keep things simple. Either way, you can choose a bold colour or a classic neutral that they’ll love to enjoy for the next whole year!

Classic Pink Instead of Romantic Red

While classic red roses might seem too romantic to send to a friend, pink roses are another beautiful option. Plus, with the selection we have created at Eternal Petals, there’s truly a pink shade perfect for everyone.

Whether she loves soft pastel pink, smouldering bright hot pink or something more in the middle, if your bestie loves pink, this is your perfect choice.

Opt for Bespoke with a Mixture of Colours

Can’t decide which colour to go for your best friend? We know it’s difficult to choose. So, that’s why we created our bespoke colour mix boxes of roses.

Instead of choosing just one hue, you can now mix and match to create your own box or choose one of our pre-mixed colour boxes of your choice.

Show your best friends how much you love them this year by acknowledging International Day of Friendship on the 20^th July. Choose your long-lasting roses in advance at Eternal Petals and gift her beautiful roses that will last until next summer!

What Are Infinity Roses?

What Are Infinity Roses?An introduction to the world’s most favourite new gift! Infinity roses have been booming as a gifting option worldwide! Adverts, shops and social media posts all seem to be raving about this new trend that is shifting how we gift roses. Don’t take our word for it, even celebrities and influencers are hopping onto the trend and are just loving it as a new gifting option. For us as a company, this is super exciting, we love that more and more people are falling in love with our roses! We suspect some of us may still have questions about infinity roses. The main one? What on earth ARE infinity roses?! Good question! Let’s clear it up for you. To put it simply, infinity roses are just roses. Yup, that’s it. Infinity roses are your everyday beautiful and all-natural roses that have just undergone a little treatment to keep them looking fabulous for that much longer. Similar to how some of us treat ourselves to a little Botox here and there to sort out some of those frown lines, infinity roses are treated with their own kind of Botox to help them with their aging. Is the process harmful or toxic? Not at all! Infinity roses are typically treated with an incredibly fine wax dust that is then soaked up into the petals. This wax dust process helps prevent the roses from aging quite as quickly as they usually would after being cut from their bush. The final result is a rose that looks identical to a rose growing straight from the bush or freshly bought from your local florist! What’s the difference? Unlike roses from your local florist, infinity roses are not going to wilt and die within days of purchase. Which means you can enjoy your infinity roses for significantly longer. How much longer? Up to a year and longer! This makes these roses ideal to keep in your own home, purchase for a special event or as a gift for that special someone in your life. Oh! We almost forgot, they’re also zero maintenance! There’s no need to water them, give them rose food or repot them after time. Without doing a single thing, you will have beautiful roses that are arranged in the highest quality boxes – and did we mention how amazing they smell? What’s not to love about roses that last years, zero-maintenance, non-toxic and are drop dead gorgeous? The trend is making waves in the world of gifting and we think it’s here to stay! If you’re interested in having a look at our arrangements, you can easily click the links below: SOLO – a single rose in premium quality acrylic boxes QUARTET – four roses in premium quality acrylic boxes ROUND BOX – 11 – 14 roses in round velvet boxes SQUARE BOX – 16 roses in premium quality and chic square hat box

Real Roses That Last a Year – How Is This Possible?

Can Roses Really Last a Whole Year? Everyone loves real roses. The problem? No matter how well you take care of them and how much sunshine they get from sitting on a table or window sill, they can’t last. Sooner than you’d like, they start to wilt and you have to head out to the shops to replace them with fresh ones. And that’s why people are turning to long-lasting roses. Or year-long roses, as they are also known. These roses are real and yet they last for a WHOLE YEAR. But how? At Eternal Petals, we worked with our rose experts to create the ideal solution to wilting roses. By preserving them at their peak, we have created a way to keep them at their best for a year. Which means once you’ve found a bouquet you love, you can enjoy them for much longer. We start with sourcing the best roses Our roses aren’t just any other roses. We source the best quality roses from our expert rose partners in South America. The farm we are partnered with carefully grow our beautiful roses and cut them by hand to ensure they are protected from the moment they are parted from the ground. Cutting them in perfect bloom promises that the roses you have in your box or vase for a whole year are always at their peak. We then quickly preserve the roses Preserving the roses at their peak comes next. This has to be done quickly to promise a beautiful bloom for as long as possible. How does it work? Alongside our expert partners, we have created a preservation formula that is applied to each rose by hand individually. Crafted from a combination of all-natural oils and non-toxic wax, this formula ‘freezes’ the rose in time, as it is. In it’s perfectly bloomed state. Adding this formula to each rose stops them from growing any further. But it also stops them from wilting or dying. While doing this, the special formula has been designed to maintain each rose’s texture and hand-feel. So, you won’t find the roses are stiff or crispy. They are just as soft and luxurious as a rose that is still growing in your garden. We also have a state-of-the-art colour pigmentation process which guarantees whichever incredible colour you choose also lasts the whole year without fading. The final touches Preserving the roses in their perfect bloom isn’t the end of the journey at Eternal Petals. We also take huge pride in the presentation of our roses. Which is what our customers love the most about our collection. Opting for luxe suede display boxes, we hand select each rose and trim and add to the display boxes carefully to ensure your perfect bouquet or box. This is how we achieve year-long roses that look so perfect, it’s hard to believe that they’re real. The perfect gift or treat for yourself, discover the Eternal Petals long-lasting roses collection online. From romantic and classic red to bold blue or yellow, find your perfect display today.

6 Interior Décor Accessories You Need in Your Home

Update your home this season with these 6 interior décor accessories trends. Whether you love to update your home every season or just once in a blue moon, accessories are the way to do it. Simple, easy changes can make all the difference in a space. And adding one of these 6 interior décor accessories trends can instantly transform your room. Try one or try them all for a whole new look for your home this season. Antique Artwork This season, artwork is all about antique vibes. Think moody watercolours and antique portraits and you’re on the right track. How to make it modern? Whether you buy an antique-style print from new or the real deal, display them in a simple and contemporary frame instead of an intricate antique frame and you’ve created the 2020 take on artwork. Extra Large Planters Greenery and artificial plants have been having a moment in interior trends for quite some time. More than a moment, in fact. But this season, planters are taking the lead. And they’re huge. To get this trend just right, think the bigger, the better. Huge, oversized and exaggerated indoor planters are a big look. Fill them with olive trees or dainty Italian-style plants for the perfect on-trend finish. Rattan Accessories Rattan is the new fabric in interiors. And accessories in rattan is one of the biggest trends for this year. Woven rattan baskets and storage pieces have been taking the spotlight for a while but this season, take it even further. Discover rattan accents, such as lampshades and mirrors and layer them with other neutral hues for a luxe take on natural modern style. Navy Blue Accents The colour of the moment? It’s still navy. Grey is still a big factor for interior design. But deep and rich navy blue might just be taking the lead. If you’re not ready for a navy-blue feature wall, you can create this trend in your home through accessories. Think luxe, textured throws, cushions and even features like mirrors and navy picture frames. Adding coordinating navy accents throughout a space, brings the room together while keeping your home on-trend. Plaster Finishes This year, plaster is in. While having Parisian-style bare plaster walls might not be an option for everyone, you can inject this look with just a few minimal plaster accessories and features. Think artwork, sculptures and lampshades crafted in neutral-hued plaster for the perfect look. Roses, Always https://www.instagram.com/p/B0yIa-iH9nm/ Our favourite trend this season – of course – is roses. Roses are a classic flower to choose for your home. But this season, they’re super on-trend too. Long-lasting roses are the perfect choice because of the huge wealth of colour options. This makes it even easier to choose a display that perfectly suits your home. Plus, they last and last. So, no need to keep heading out to the flower shop each week for replacements! Dress your interior space up this season with one of these stylish interior décor accessories. From artwork to roses, we’re in love them all. But our collection of Eternal Petals long-lasting roses is always at the heart of our interior décor taste. Discover year long roses this season and shop all your favourite colours with our latest drop.
