As we approach the start of another school year, it’s time to start thinking about the dedicated people who spend countless hours working with your children. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s especially important to acknowledge the efforts of our teachers. Have you considered sending your kids’ teachers a beautiful, custom back-to-school flower bouquet in 77084?
When you order now, we’ll give you 10 percent off your back-to-school bouquet—just mention this post!
What your children’s teachers do
It’s easy to take teachers for granted, especially if you’re of the mindset that they automatically get a three-month vacation each year. Unfortunately, that’s not the case—if it were, more people would want to be teachers. The truth is, teachers spend countless unpaid hours preparing to educate your children in age-appropriate ways, all while keeping in mind individual learning capabilities, district standards and more.
Your child’s teacher has most likely graduated from at least a four-year college and has gone through credentialing programs to help them understand the best ways possible to educate your kid. Whether they’re a preschooler or about to graduate from high school, a good teacher—one who can connect with your child and inspire a love of learning—is worth their weight in gold. After all, we don’t just send our kids to school to get eight hours of free babysitting. Schools are meant to help children learn more about society, the world and how to function in it.
… and how they deserve to be acknowledged
Your kid’s teacher has to deal with a lot in normal circumstances, and now that the COVID-19 pandemic is here, they have a lot more to deal with than normal. Why not send them a back-to-school flower bouquet in 77084?
Flowers are always a welcome gift to teachers, administrators and other education professionals alike. Here are our favorite suggestions to show your child’s teacher how much you appreciate them:
Sunflowers: Sunflowers are some of the most cheerful flowers available, and are super hardy to boot. A big bouquet of sunflowers and greenery will brighten anyone’s day—and since they’re in season now, you’ll get the best of the bunch.
Gerbera daisies: Gerbera daisies come in a wide variety of super vibrant colors, ranging from neon pink to bright yellow. There’s no better way to say “I appreciate you” than to pick a bouquet of these hardy, cheerful flowers.
Orchids: These ones might be for the more advanced green thumbs at the school, but a potted orchid is a flower that will last long past those first report cards. Be sure to choose an orchid that can not only withstand neglect (after all, your kids’ teachers are probably exhausted) but will also do well in the classroom’s natural light, should the teacher choose to leave it there.
When you need back-to-school flowers for your child’s teacher in 77084, Its Just For You has you covered. Call us to discuss your budget and vision, and we’ll create a gorgeous bouquet that will have your kid’s teacher grinning from ear to ear.
At Its Just for You, we’re pleased to regularly offer a wide range of beautiful flower arrangements for under $59 at our shop and online!
Your options will vary based on the season, but our $59 and under arrangements in 77084 are typically medium-sized arrangements, allowing you to get the same outstanding level of quality you’ve come to expect from our arrangements, but at a more economical price.
Many of these arrangements will contain flowers such as gerbers, tulips, spider or cremon mums, carnations and filler. Some arrangements might also include a few roses, sunflowers, hydrangeas, calla lilies, or stargazer/oriental lilies.
These aren’t our only economical options, either—we offer smaller mixed baskets available for thank you gifts and get well wishes, as well as a wide range of fruit baskets, cheese and cracker baskets and sweets baskets. Plus, you can always choose from our range of 6” table plants (lilies, crotons, bromeliad, phal orchids, anthuriums) and compact arrangements (featuring roses, calla lilies, stargazers or hydrangea with spray roses and fillers).
When to send a flower arrangement
If you are inexperienced with sending flower arrangements, your questions are most likely to concern when it’s most appropriate to send flowers, and what sorts of flowers should you send depending on the occasion or circumstances. Here are some of the occasions that may call for flower arrangements:
Get well wishes: If you know someone who is ill or receiving medical treatment, you can send a bouquet to their home or hospital room, filled with flowers that provide an uplifting mood.
Birthdays: Receiving flowers for your birthday can truly brighten the day and make it special. You can customize the bouquet to make sure it includes the recipient’s favorite flowers!
Weddings: Weddings usually require a lot of different flower arrangements, so you can work with a florist when planning your wedding to take care of it. If you’re a guest, you can also contribute an arrangement of your own.
Romantic occasions: If you’re celebrating an anniversary, going on a date or just want to surprise the special person in your life, you might consider getting a flower arrangement to set the proper mood and show that person how you feel about them.
Send your respects: If you know someone who recently had a loved one pass away, you can send flowers as your well wishes to be of some comfort. You may also consider contributing floral arrangements to the funeral or memorial service.
Congratulations: Did someone special in your life recently get promoted, celebrate an important milestone or achieve something significant? Flower arrangements can be a great way to say “congratulations!”

Maybe flowers aren’t the first thing that comes to mind when you’re trying to decide what to get Dad for Father’s Day, but hear us out—there’s nothing like a fresh flower or plant arrangement to brighten up someone’s day. Even if your dad is generally the stoic, unsentimental type, flowers and plants can be the perfect way to say “I love you”—and they can be as manly as he is. Read on for some of our favorite Father’s Day arrangements in 77084, then call the team at It’s Just For You to brainstorm the perfect arrangement for your dad:
Try a unique vase or holder: Maybe Dad isn’t the cut crystal vase and lush peony type—and that’s okay! Why not get him an arrangement in a fun, unique holder? Antique-style watering cans, vintage toy trucks, oversized beer steins or coffee mugs and rustic small barrels are great ways to showcase plants and flowers, and tailor them to his interests. Give him something to show off on Facebook when you pair your arrangement or plant with a fun container.
Potted indoor and outdoor plants: Is Dad an avid gardener? Give him a new plant to nurture all year long. We can help you choose a plant that will work in whichever indoor or outdoor conditions he has, or something low-maintenance that could inspire a new hobby. Succulents are particularly great for novice gardeners, thanks to their ability to survive in a variety of different conditions (some even thrive on neglect), and their lovely shades of green, purple and red look great in or out of anyone’s home.
Centerpieces for the table: If you’re celebrating Dad with a luncheon or dinner, opt for a centerpiece that will add a festive touch to the setting. Pick flowers in his favorite colors, or that have special meaning. For example, daffodils symbolize regard, sunflowers represent adoration and violets mean loyalty and devotion—all qualities and emotions that a great father can have or inspire.
Your father will love the thought and affection you put into his custom floral arrangement, and the memories will last for years to come. If you’re not sure what your dad might like, give us a call and tell us about what you’re looking for—our expert floral staff can give you suggestions to make a bouquet or potted plant arrangement that will knock his socks off. We pride ourselves on being able to create gorgeous custom arrangements for even the most difficult-to-buy-for folks—and many dads seem to qualify—so we’re up to the challenge.

Graduations are on the horizon, and what better way to say “congratulations” than with a beautiful fresh floral arrangement? It’s a great gift to show you care, and can be customized to suit their personalities, favorite colors and flowers. Your graduate will remember their bouquet—and your thoughtfulness—every time they think about their special day.
Here are some of our favorite graduation arrangement ideas in 77084. Not sure which type to pick? Let our talented staff help you design a custom arrangement.
Flower crowns
If your grad is one of the lucky ones who gets to walk across the stage this year, a lush flower crown can be worn around the base of their cap, giving them a unique look that will stand out from the rest of the crowd. Customize the flowers to coordinate with their school colors, or pick something in a favorite hue that will make them easy to spot even from the nosebleed seats. It will also look gorgeous in photos, making the memories last for years to come, long after the flowers wilt.
Flower leis
Flower leis, especially orchids, have been a graduation favorite for years. The tradition started in Hawaii and the Pacific Islands, and represents the affection that the giver feels for the graduate, good luck and beginning the next phase of their lives. (Plus, they’re just plain beautiful.) According to traditional flower meanings, orchids represent love, beauty, strength and luxury—all things we wish for our favorite grads.
Potted plants
If your graduate is moving into their own place (or a new one) after school’s over, why not keep the celebration going by sending a potted plant? It doubles as a housewarming gift and will stay alive longer than cut flowers, so they’ll always have a reminder of their accomplishment and your pride in them. Pick a low-maintenance plant that does well indoors and even in low light—many college students and grads can’t afford apartments with a lot of natural light. Snake plants, heart-leaf philodendron, dieffenbachia and Japanese sago palms are all great choices.
Classic bouquets
Of course, you can’t go wrong with a classic bouquet, either—especially if you pick flowers and colors with a special meaning. For example, purple can represent accomplishments, while green represents youth, luck and new beginnings. Cheerful yellow suggests joy and success, and orange means passion and enthusiasm. Alternatively, you can pick flowers in their school colors.
Whatever you choose, your graduation arrangement is sure to make your grad feel special. After all their hard work, they deserve the acknowledgement!
