A Secret Santa Gift They’ll All Want

            There are so many worthwhile traditions to participate in during the holiday season, but one of the most popular among groups is Secret Santa. This gift swap works best the more people you have, which is why it's the perfect workplace game. Not only does it ensure that everyone gets a present (and without breaking the bank, since most gift swaps use a price cap), but it brings together the whole team for a fun hour or two where presents and givers are revealed. Central Square Florist is no stranger to gift exchange - it's a huge part of the business we're in, after all. And we're here to help you offer your lucky recipient something fresh, seasonal and utterly unique. Read More about A Secret Santa Gift They’ll All Want »

Giving Back With Flowers on Giving Tuesday

          While we have ample opportunities to give to family and friends this season, don't forget about one more. Giving Tuesday, a global initiative to promote charitable giving across the world, falls on November 28, just a day after Cyber Monday and the previous week's super spendy Black Friday. We at Central Square Florist offer a unique opportunity to give back to our Boston community, and it's available all year long. Read More about Giving Back With Flowers on Giving Tuesday »

Perfect Poinsettias for the Holiday Office

Ready to make your workplace really sparkle this holiday season, but not sure where to start? You're not alone. While you may have plenty of boxed-up decor to pull from the back office, it's not always easy to decorate our workplaces for the holidays. Unlike a home, a commercial space is often large, with lots of vertical space and furniture that can't be moved on a whim. A business has to think about clients and customers as well as its coworkers when it comes to a decorating effort. And yet, when we come together as a team to deck our workplace halls, it can be one of the most fun days spent with our colleagues all year.

Harvest Your Thanksgiving Table

If you've been tapped to host Thanksgiving this year, you already know you've got your work cut out for you. It can be a total joy to bring everyone together in your home, but it's no easy feat. One of the main considerations you have is where to put everybody who does come, whether you have to add chairs to your dining room set-up from the kitchen or improvise a kid's table to the side. We think it's the food that requires the most effort, but in many cases, it's the dining logistics. At Central Square Florist, we believe that crowning your Thanksgiving table with a stellar centerpiece is the most fun part of organizing it. Read More about Harvest Your Thanksgiving Table »

Floral Gifts for the Mostess Hostess

The language of flowers is never more articulate than on the topic of gratitude. In the U.S. and across the globe, it's customary to offer fresh blooms as a thank you for hosting a formal event or dinner. Every culture has its own considerations when it comes to giving a floral hostess gift - many places in Europe follow the old tradition of bringing only an odd number of flowers, for instance - but we at Central Square Florist feel anything goes. Well, almost. Read More about Floral Gifts for the Mostess Hostess »
