New business for new arrivals

LOCAL residents can now celebrate a baby"s arrival with a fun and unique

product: an Expressions Floral Stork.

Jill Marshall, Managing Director of Expressions, told the News: 'It"s the UK"s

first personalised floral stork.

'You can purchase flowers of your choice for it from your local florist and they

will put the baby"s details on the bundle for you.

'It makes a great alternative from the usual hand-tied bouquet.'

One local participating florist is Almond Florist, Main Street, Barrhead, and

the floral stork comes in three sizes, from one foot to two feet tall.

Not only that - but proud mothers and fathers now have the ideal way to inform

all their neighbours, friends and relatives of their new arrival by displaying a

six-foot sign in the shape of a stork in their garden, drive or indoors.

The six-foot stork and the floral stork can be used at baby showers,

christenings, baptisms, naming days - or to celebrate the start of maternity

leave or the mother and baby arriving home from hospital.
