Father's Day is June 18 - and although you could head out to the hardware store or sporting goods emporium as usual, we have a new suggestion this year. How about sending Dad a sophisticated, dramatic or elegant floral arrangement for his office? You may not have ever thought of giving flowers to Dad, but these arrangements are bold and confident and perfect for anyone - and are sure to be conversation piece wherever they are sent. For Father's Day gifts that are unexpectedly beautiful, come to Breen's Florist.
Did You Know? Father's Day is a relatively new holiday, established in 1966 by President Lyndon Johnson. The inspiration behind the holiday was William Smart, a single dad who had raised 6 children single handedly.

Even though it was decades in the making, Father's Day was finally recognized. Read More about Father’s Day Gifts for Sophisticated Dads »
