There’s a lot of things that we’ll remember about 2020 so far, and one of those things is how people panic-bought hoards of toilet paper during the pandemic lockdowns. It might be one of the greatest mysteries to go down in history.
Arkansas florists from Blossom Events & Florist thought it would be funny to create toilet paper bouquets in honor of the news-making phenomenon.
According to WREG Memphis , the florists got the idea after stores began running out of the now-coveted bathroom item.
The bouquets look just like any other bouquet, except rolls of toilet paper have replaced the flowers.
“Same element, same base of it, same concept. It has greenery. It has water, it has a vase, it has ribbon. Lots of mechanics on the inside. It took a lot of labor. You just can’t make tissue paper look pretty. You just can’t,” owners David and Bart Faulkner told WREG.
What started off as a joke quickly turned into an actual business venture.
And they don’t come cheap! The shop is selling the bouquets for $75, the same price the shop charges for flowers.
