Post Holidays

Some people find it hard to make an adjustment after the holidays because the dopamine that made them so happy has subsided.  All of the hours of holiday preparation are behind us now so what do we do next? One great idea is to send a special  thank you to all of those that made your holiday special. Penny’s by Plaza Flowers has the perfect thank you flowers and gifts to help you with this!

Cheerful Philly Flower Arrangement

Cheerful Philly

Here are some other ways to perk yourself up!

1. Stay busy by scheduling lots of events that you enjoy. By doing this you will be giving yourself something to look forward to.  When you do this your brain’s reward system kicks in and you are naturally happier.

2. Do something new that you have not tried before. You can try a new hobby or take a vacation that you have been putting off. These things too will get the dopamine flowing which again creates happiness.

3. Stay in touch with your loved ones you just spent the wonderful holidays with. Often the separation and lack of communication once they return to their homes and lives makes us feel anxiety. Do not let that happen but instead set up appointments so there is a firm commitment that you will be communicating again soon. And yes again the reward system in the brain engages.

4. Make a traditional handed down recipe different from all of the holiday foods you just enjoyed. Try to use healthy ingredients so that you are also feeling good about your diet.

5.  Finally another great way to put your mind on something new is to volunteer. There are many people that can use help after the holidays. No matter what you decide to volunteer for, as you work to help others you will be making yourself feel a sense of purpose.

 

One good way to to start with setting up an appointment with loved ones, would be to send a beautiful thank you flower arrangement or gift from Penny’s by Plaza Flowers! Our professional floral designers are extremely talented and can prepare a special product that will delight your recipient!

Family Values

Dottie Drummond, a second-generation florist, purchased a small flower shop in 1983. Her sales volume grew too quickly for this 700 square foot store in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. Eleven months after the grand opening she purchased her second location in Norristown, which was planned to support the primary sales location in King of Prussia by housing the offices, warehouse, and design facility. This new location became one of the busiest intersections in the Philadelphia region.

Dottie’s success was the result of a very simple philosophy: “Deliver beautifully designed fresh flowers everyday.” Many people thought she was crazy. Everyday? Even evenings and Sundays? No florists are open on Sunday.

But Dottie understood that Plaza Flowers had to be available for every occasion, even evenings and Sundays. She instilled this “be there for your customers” attitude into every member of her team, especially her daughter, Heather, and son Chris, who now run the family business. Chris and Heather have worked hard to make sure every customer gets the personalized attention that Mom promised. This was expanded to a national level as Chris and Heather developed a network of affiliate florists throughout the country.

Quality was improved even more when Heather began sourcing the finest quality flowers direct from farms around the globe. Selling only the freshest blooms from farms in Holland, Ecuador, Columbia, Costa Rica, Hawaii, and California strengthened Plaza Flowers’ position as Pennsylvania’s leading florist.
