Sweetest Day is an American original ' established in the early 1900's as a simple reminder that a thoughtful word or act of kindness can greatly influence someone's life. The day began when candy company executives distributed candy and small gifts to orphans, people confined to their homes and others to show them that someone cared about them. Down through the decades, the day has become a special opportunity to show love and support to those we care about. French Florist has the floral designs and gifts you'll need to do just that.
