🌸 Did you know? We’re happy to sell flowers by the bunch for your special events! 🌸

A lot of people ask if we can provide flowers without arranging them, and the answer is absolutely YES!

Whether you’re planning a baby shower, bridal shower, wedding, birthday party, graduation, or any other celebration, we can order fresh flowers by the bunch just for you.

One of the best parts? Since there’s no design labor involved, we can offer the flowers at a lower cost than a fully arranged order. You get beautiful, fresh blooms and the flexibility to create your own centerpieces, bouquets, or decorations while saving money.

If you have an upcoming event and need flowers, stop by, send us a message, or give us a call. We’d love to help bring your vision to life! 💐✨

One of the things I love most about giving back to our community is seeing the impact it has. We recently made a donation to 204, and these sweet thank-you pictures from the students absolutely made my day.
I have always loved seeing the creativity and imagination that children put into their artwork. Art was one of my favorite classes when I attended 204, and I have so many great memories of Mrs. Riggio’s class.

I attended 204 from kindergarten through 8th grade, from 1987 to 1996, and that school holds a special place in my heart.

Fun fact: My class was the very first class to have Mrs. Brewer! I’ll never forget it, and I’m sure many of my classmates won’t either. Mrs. Brewer originally filled in after a piano fell on our teacher’s leg (Mrs. Killgore) and broke it. What started as a temporary position turned into a lifelong career, and she stayed until retirement.

Another fun fact: My grandmother Clara was a third grader when 204 first opened its doors. At that time, the local country schools were consolidated into 204, and she came from Round Prairie School.

It’s amazing to think about the generations of families who have walked those halls. So many memories, so many friendships, and now it’s wonderful to see today’s students creating memories of their own.

Thank you to the students for the thoughtful artwork—it means more than you know!

🌸 Take a walk into Billy D’s with me!!! 🌸

I could not do my job without this place right here!!! And I definitely could not do my job without the amazing people who work here!!!!

I am so blessed to be only 25–30 minutes away from my wholesaler. There are so many perks to being this close! 👇🏼

💐 I get to handpick exactly what I want and see all the beautiful flowers and supplies in person. Plus, I always find things I didn’t even know I wanted! 😂

💐 It’s close enough that if a customer needs something and I’m out or don’t have it in my cooler, I can make a quick trip and grab exactly what I need.

💐 My favorite perk of all — the friendships I’ve built. Over the last three years, I’ve been seeing these wonderful people 2 to 4 times a week, and they have become so much more than just my wholesaler. The team at Billy D’s has THE BEST customer service, and they always go above and beyond!

Another reason this crew means so much to me is the support they’ve given me throughout my journey. As a member of the Board of Directors for the Illinois State Florists’ Association, I taught my very first floral class last Fall. I was nervous, but the girls at Billy D’s were some of my biggest cheerleaders. Their encouragement, support, and belief in me meant more than they know, and I am so grateful for each of them. ❤️

Honestly, this is my favorite place to go. I’m like a kid in a candy store every single time I walk through these doors! It never gets old! 🥰

Thank you, Billy D’s, for helping me bring beautiful blooms to my customers and for always making me feel welcome! ❤️

🌻 Behind the Blooms 🌻

Today I was washing vases that customers brought back for us to recycle and reuse. As simple as that task may seem, it got me thinking about my journey in the floral industry.

I started as a floral assistant in 2006 and learned this business from the ground up. In February 2023, just one week before Valentine’s Day, I opened my own flower shop.

One of the things I love most is that I know every part of this business because I’ve done every part of this business. From washing vases and cleaning buckets to processing flowers, designing arrangements, helping customers, and running the shop—I truly love it all.

What you see on social media is usually the finished arrangement, but there’s so much that happens behind the scenes to make it all come together. And honestly, I enjoy those parts just as much.

Thank you for supporting my small business and allowing me to do what I love every day. 💐

Now tell me—what would you like to see next behind the scenes at the flower shop?
