Hand Crafted Jewelry at a Floral Shop?

You wouldn't believe it, but here at BiZi Bee Floral in Seattle, we actually carry some gorgeous hand crafted jewelry that is locally made by local artists. It's fun, it's unique, it's at our flower shop.

We always wanted to be a little different than other flower shops and one way that we made that happen is by opening our doors to local vendors/artists to share our space to display their beautiful work.

We've got jewelry by Banu and jewelry by C. Hern. Their jewelry is made with the best jems and stones. The colors are fantastic! I love finding new and cool items that I can wear and get compliments about...so if you're in the mood to do a little shopping, you gotta come check it out.

Something that would be fun to do would be to have some fantastic organic flowers delivered in a interesting artistic vase with an awesome one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry attached to your love. Not only will you earn some fantastic points, your love will be able to keep these and remember you by for all time!

I hope you'll give it some thought (that's what really matters!) and come check out our hand crafted locally made jewelry! Looking forward to seeing you here at "the Bee".

"Green Idea" for Valentine Flowers in Seattle

Hello all! As you know, BiZi Bee Floral is a little "mom and pop" floral shop located in Seattle, Wa.

We're excited to say that for Valentine's Day this year, we're adding a new bouquet that is eco friendly and would appeal to all my "Green" friends. It's called: "Love, Sweet and Natural" designed in a BlumeBox (all recyclable) using the best organic flowers...lillies, gerberas, roses, spray roses, and daisies. It is fabulous!

I hope you'll visit us at the shop or our site: www.bizibeefloral.com

We also are offering a line of gifts for those 18 and older with a spicey "Green" twist. More info here. for a fun event being hosted with these gifts on Friday the 8th of February.

Hope to see you here at "The Bee"

Local "Mom and Pop" Flower Shop Needs Your Help!

BiZi Bee Floral in Seattle is a local “mom and pop” shop. We pride ourselves on that. I’ve been in the floral industry for over 11 years and my husband has a background in sales, but now, we work together (which is difficult at times..as we are complete opposites).

BiZi Bee was born out of love. My husbands’ love for me. He was frustrated that I wasn’t doing things to my full potential (working for somebody else) and decided to start selling roses in nightclubs in the area. That was fun..trapsing around from bar to bar at “O Dark Thirty” trying to make a little money to help with the dream. It was successful.

We had our first road side stand on Mother’s Day ’06. Mind you, I was still working for somebody else. We bought our flowers from local vendors and I must have worked 80 hours at my regular job and another 50 just on the stand. It was crazy! But, I had realized that if I was ever going to share my gift with anybody and be myself doing it, I was going to have to work for myself.

Let me tell you, being an entrepreneuer is tough. We opened BiZi Bee on July 3, ’06 and it all happened by accident and quick at that! I can’t say that everybody was happy about it..especially my old boss. And for that, I am sad that I’ll never be able to tell them how much they meant to me, to nurture and help me grow as much as I did. But, I have a family, and needs of my own..I wanted to be something without them.

I’ve met some really amazing people along the way. I have been fortunate enough to have customers buying flowers for courtship, to marriage, to having their first baby. I have been there for sad occasions and happy ones. We are blessed. Our customers mean so much to us. Without them, we would have never made it this far.

A year and a half has gone by, I have learned a lot. Any mistakes you could make in business, it seems that we have. Why does learning have to be so hard? We’re just taking it one day at a time. Valentine’s Day is fast approaching and we’re working hard, but we still need you (our customers) to make this successful.

I hope you will all come by and see us. We are gettin’ BiZi and Beeing Happy! I hope you will support your local florist and not the big corporations..otherwise, the “mom and pop’s” will no longer exsist. That would be sad.
