Penny's By Plaza Flowers has amazing Christmas wreaths, flowers and gifts! Golden Evergreen Wreath Christmas Wreaths, Flowers and Decorations The symbolism surrounding Christmas and Hanukkah decorations is amazing. For example a wreath represents eternity. This is because of its circular shape which signifies it has no beginning and no end.  In addition, Christmas wreaths are traditionally made from evergreen leaves. The evergreen tree does not shed its leaves in the winter thus symbolizing eternal life. Christmas decoration colors also have different meaning. Historians think the tradition of displaying Christmas decorations dates back to the 15th century. Then in London it was a custom that homes and parish churches display ivy, holly and other various natural decorations.  People felt that the heart-shaped leaves of ivy symbolized Jesus coming to earth and that holly provided protection against witches. Plus its thorns and red berries represented the Crown of Thorns worn by Jesus at his crucifixion. The traditional selection of red, green and gold decorations is purposeful also. Gold is one of the first colors associated with Christmas. It symbolizes royalty as it was one of the three gifts of the Magi. Red symbolizes the blood of Jesus shed during crucifixion. And again green symbolizes eternal life as it comes from the evergreen tree. In 1839 a Lutheran priest by the name of Johann Wichern came up with the idea to use a wagon wheel to symbolize the approach of Christmas. Using the wheel he would use red and white candles to reflect the Advent season. In the Roman Catholic Church, the season of Advent is four Sundays in December each one taking on a different theme: On the First Sunday, the church looks forward to the Second Coming of Christ. On the Second Sunday, the church reviews the message that John the Baptist preached. His message was for Christians to "prepare the way of the Lord". On the Third Sunday, which is referred to as Gaudete Sunday, the theme is again surrounding the joy Christians have by the coming of the Saviour. On the Fourth Sunday, the theme is about Mary and Joseph and how the events led up to the birth of Jesus. [...]

Watch for great Black Friday floral product sales on the Penny's By Plaza Flowers website! Huntington Happiness Bouquet Black Friday Arguably the greatest shopping event of the year, Black Friday has been around for decades. It has routinely been the busiest shopping day of the year and brings in billions of dollars to retailers. Always the day following the Thanksgiving Day holiday, Black Friday gets people out to stores in the early morning hours. Then it is every person for themselves when the doors to the mall or retail outlet open. Consumers can usually find spectacular bargains on Black Friday. The newest fads in toys, clothes, electronics and more bring people out in droves. It is also a good financial stimulus day for the economy and sales results are watched closely. There has been a bit of a decrease in the importance of Black Friday as retailers started spreading promotions and sales special's throughout the month of December until Christmas. 2020 has changed everything about our day to day life including Black Friday. Many people, with good reason, are nervous about venturing out to crowded stores. More shoppers are expected to shop online this year. In fact predictions are that  51% of all shoppers are extremely hesitant to go shopping in public. For that reason it is expected that 64% of their shopping budget will be spent online. This is all data gathered from a survey conducted by Deloitte. So with more shopping being done online this year, a little research reveals the strategies being used by just a few of the well known retailers. Best Buy - Some of their online sales at their website started in October. So online bargains are already in swing. Best Buy will also open its doors at 5 am on Black Friday. The company will require face coverings and will limit in store customer numbers. Curbside pick up and same day- delivery also is available. Home Depot - This retail giant will offer both online and in store discounts from November 6 until December 2. Macy's - Black Friday sales start on November [...]

Keswick Avenue, Glenside, PA 19038. On this Veterans Day, pay tribute to those who served in our Armed Forces with lovely floral products from Penny's By Plaza Flowers! Red, White and You Veterans Day On November 11th we celebrate Veterans Day. The reason for this date is that in 1918 on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, all major hostilities of World War I were formally ended.  The day was originally termed Armistice Day and was created to celebrate the service of all U.S. military veterans. President Woodrow Wilson gave an eloquent speech in 1919 during which he  commended the men and women of the United States military. A brief excerpt from his speech goes as follows "To us in America the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country's service, and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of nations". Armistice Day and Remembrance Day are celebrated in other countries as a remembrance to the end of World War I. However in 1954, Veterans Day became the official name for our United States day to honor our military men and women. Veterans Day differs from Memorial Day. While both days honor our military, Memorial Day is designated to honor those who died while fighting for our country. Veterans Day is designated to honor all of the military folks who have served our country. Often you will see it spelled Veteran's or Veterans' Day but in reality there is no apostrophe. The day is designated to honor all military veterans. Therefore the singular meaning denoted by an apostrophe does not apply. On this special day why not send a delicious basket of sweets from Penny's By Plaza Flowers to that special veteran in your life. It will mean so much to them that you took the time to recognize the sacrifices they made in defending our great Nation! There are numerous ways you can do that make a veteran feel like every sacrifice he or she gave to our great country is appreciated. I remember a few [...]

Shop for Thanksgiving decorating ideas, stunning cornucopia and incredible holiday table centerpieces at Penny's By Plaza Flowers!   Meadowbrook Centerpiece The pandemic has left one of our favorite holidays, Thanksgiving, in a state of flux.  Normal activities  like travel and large family gatherings are issues of concern rather than care free common place events.  Families are forced to find new and creative ways to share the traditions of Thanksgiving with their loved ones. The origination of Thanksgiving dates back to 1621. During a harsh winter when the Pilgrims first landed in America, they were able to survive by the generosity of the Native Americans that shared food with them. To repay their new friends, the Pilgrims held a three day feast. The bounty they shared included dried fruits, boiled pumpkin, turkey, venison and other foods. A slightly different menu from what we are accustomed to but no doubt a delightful feast at that time. Over the decades the theme of a celebration of harvest has continued to evolve. Today we think of Thanksgiving as a time to give thanks for our foundation of this great Nation. Of course it is also the official start of the holiday season and a special time of fellowship with family and friends. After consistent encouragement from Sarah Josepha Hale, writer of "Mary Had a Little Lamb", President Lincoln declared Thanksgiving a nation wide holiday in 1863. This year while college and NFL football is in swing with limited fan attendance, The Macy's Day Parade will be a television only event. ” Macy’s confirmed in a statement, “showcasing the Macy’s Parade’s signature mix of giant character helium balloons, fantastic floats, street performers, clowns, and heralding the arrival of the holiday season with the one-and-only Santa Claus.” So there will still be the magnificent balloons featuring Disney characters and super heroes. These will however not be controlled by humans but rather by specially rigged vehicles. And instead of following the normal route from uptown Manhattan to Midtown, the event will be staged in Herald Square. In order to provide a set of safety guidelines to help all people stay safe during this pandemic, the CDC has ranked the following activities into three areas: lower risk, moderate risk, and higher risk. Lower risk activities Having a small dinner with only people who live in your household. Preparing traditional family recipes for [...]

Decorate your home with festive Halloween floral products from Penny’s By Plaza Flowers! Goodness And Light Bouquet Halloween games, traditions and covid safe activities For all of us this pandemic has been stressful to say the least. We are discovering new and ingenious ways to do things. Practicing all of the safety guidelines we must follow to stay healthy and keep others safe as well has been and will continue to be challenging. Take for example the tradition of Halloween trick or treating. This is always such a fun time for our little one dressing up as their favorite Disney or Super Hero character. Now we need to look at some other ways to celebrate. Bobbing for apples or "dooking" as the Scots call it, has been around for centuries. Apples are placed in a large tub of water. As they are floating children take turns trying to grab the apples with their teeth. Another method is to hold a fork between the teeth while kneeling on a chair and try to stab the apple. Still another old tradition was to hang syrup coated scones from strings and have the children try to eat the scone without using their hands to touch it. These date back for centuries but not as popular as they once were. More for adults, in Ireland and Britain, a long standing Halloween tradition was to predict the future partner or spouse of someone.  This was done by peeling an apple in one single strip. Once complete the apple peeling was thrown over the shoulder. It was expected that when the peeling fell to the ground it would spell the first letter of the name of someone's future spouse. Another old tradition in that part of the world was to roast hazelnuts on an open fire. The person roasting would name one hazelnut for themselves and one for the person they wanted to be with. If the hazelnuts jumped away from the heat it was a bad sign that they should not be together. If the hazelnuts roasted quietly together it was good sign that the two people were meant for each other. Modern day games are creative and fun for children and adults. Plus some may be safe for smaller groups depending on CDC guidelines. Here are just a few ideas for fun Halloween games: Witches' Hat Toss - Most people love ring toss. In this game you can use witches hats instead of rings. [...]

Send a beautiful Penny’s By Plaza Flowers plant or flower arrangement for Boss's Day on 10/16 Grateful For You Boss's Day History The concept of a special day to honor bosses was introduced in 1958 by Patricia Bays Haroski. She was working for her father at his State Farm Agency in Illinois. So enthralled by his hard work and dedication to his employees, she  introduced the idea of "National Bosses' Day" to the United States Chamber of Commerce.  In her observation, it did not seem clear to younger workers that their supervisors were dedicated, committed and hard working individuals. She felt their dedication needed to be realized and appreciated. Boss's Day is special time to honor someone who is not just a boss but rather a mentor and someone who has your back. A person you can feel comfortable asking for guidance and someone you look up to and admire. In other words a true leader. In the words of H.S.M. Burns,  “A good manager is a man who isn’t worried about his own career but rather the careers of those who work for him.” Celebrating Bosses' Day can be fun and rewarding for the entire team. Below are some creative ideas: Bake a cake - Not everyone can bake but if you join in with the whole team perhaps you can jointly put together a very tasty treat. Plus have some team fun and for a good cause. Of course you may want to make sure a dessert is okay for your boss. Not all people eat dessert for health or dietary reasons. Team thank you card -  Often a card that is signed by the entire team and is thoughtfully selected to represent the fine qualities a boss possesses, is very impactful. To add meaning you can also create hand written notes by team members reflecting their personal views on the great contributions of the boss. A gift -  Most people, bosses included, like to receive gifts. Survey the team. Find out everyone's thoughts on what boss might like. You want to be sure the gift has symbolic meaning expressed by those that look up to and admire the boss for her or his unique leadership style. Award ceremony -  Create a simple awards ceremony. Involve the team in the planning and make it fun for all. Plan the [...]

You're a Gem World Teachers Day Some brief history on World Teachers Day reveals that it was first officially created on October 5, 1994. However, the concept actually occurred earlier in 1966 when there was a conference in Paris with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organizations (UNESCO) and the International Labor Organization (ILO). These groups felt there was a need to better define teachers rights, responsibilities and general areas of the teaching profession in all countries. October 5 is recognized as World Teachers Day. Around the globe this is a day when teachers are honored for the great things they do to educate young and old alike. Most of us have fond memories of at least one special teacher. That person that made learning fun and made you feel like you could conquer the world. For me it was my third grade teacher, Mrs. Robinson. There was never a day when I did not want to hurry and get ready for school. Occasionally [...]

The month is designated as a special time to bring awareness to this illness and to the importance of early detection. Every year some studies reflect a staggering  458,000 women die from Breast Cancer and 1.38 Million new cases occur world wide.
