Pats on the Back


It's Staff Appreciation! Doesn't good work always deserve
recognition?!@*





This gifter & manager wanted to give their staff a truly special Pat On The Back.




These rustic bundles were given to members of a service organization acknowledging them for their hard work and dedication.



Giving thanks is what this season is all about! Right?!@*



We certainly hope this group of employees feels appreciated, ready to work towards another great year (yes, a new year fast approaches!).

Hibernating?!@*





Only 5 more days until Fall! Fall (Autumn) is our absolute favorite time of the year. Why? Maybe we should give some credit to the phenomenal colors.






Might it also be that Fall stands to remind us that some of our most cherished holidays are so near.

Although leaves will meet their end, in our experience things always become that much more lively.





We hope you are getting ready to celebrate and enjoy this beautiful seasonal change as well. It has certainly been a great Summer and we hate to bid it adieu. However, we are truly elated to say 'Hello Fall!'.






So our blog may be in hibernation (still wondering if we can postpone the urge to share!), but we are never to busy to help you celebrate life. 




We are looking forward to the Fall/Winter season. We're already drafting holiday proposals– thus you may understand our need for a little nap!



Don't forget to check in with our blog list and all the great organizations we follow. Website updates are on their way. Oh! And yes, continue to enjoy the music! (looking forward to our Fall/Winter playlist too!) Catch up with you soon, but until then be sure you continue to celebrate life ~

Our Baby Love

   Earlier last month we were asked to create something for a precious baby girl. We wanted to be sure this gifters excitement for her arrival was reflected in every inch of this arrangement.



At OATM, we are always looking for ways to maximize your gift giving while keeping the peace in your wallet. With this large horizontal containing, we piled on the gifts - literally!



This natural wood arrangement is layered with goodies. From the bottom to the top - we were sure to include things mommy (and daddy - we can't forget him!) requested. We acquired and shopped babies registry for this gifter.

                                                                                                           If you have a theme in mind or want us to develop one - we'll work it out. We decided to be all about butterflys for this baby girl! This gifter also wanted to focus on this bundles first months in their new world and new home. So, we did just that.






This little one has been in her new world for a few weeks now, and we certainly hope she, mommy, and daddy feel and enjoy all the love this gifter has for them. We are so happy to help them celebrate the new life that has come into their lives ~

Paradise Found!









What better way to deal with this heat than to head to paradise! Last month we were beyond excited to create arrangements of fun and happiness for a beach bound duo. 

What better way to take a little stress off mommy and daddy than to bundle the fun all ready and set for beach and water play.








We certainly wanted to incorporate safety and well-being, but had to include some toys that request you "just add water" - that won't be hard to do!


Most importantly these bundles have room for more and will foster responsibility - yes they must keep up with all their things!! We hope they were thoroughly enjoyed as they made their way to paradise ~
