The Book{ish} Bouquet Story
My name is Lisa Carter Woodroof, and I’m your Book{ish} Bouquet designer & owner.
Chapter 1: As a child, my head was buried in a book. In my youth, I volunteered in my local town’s public library for a teenage summer. As an adult, books are everywhere in my house!
Chapter 2: I grew up in my Mother’s flower shop, located in a small Virginia town, right on main street in Bowling Green, Virginia. With her, I learned all the floral things. Upon her recent passing, a spark within me for the ribbons, stems, and pure joy in the faces of her customers ignited. She cared immensely about quality, and so do I.
Chapter 3: Books aren’t a trend for me, there are a billion+ books in the world, my intention is to introduce you to an all encompassing book experience.
Chapter 4: My {give a book back} program is designed to impact local literacy in your community. Simply snap a picture of the book you’ve purchased, actively donating it into your free local library, & receive a discount on your next purchase. #bookishbouquet #giveabookback
Picked with care
Chapter 5: The book in your bouquet or box is chosen from personal details we receive from your sender. So tell us all the things! Local and small indie authors are an integral inclusion to our shop. This impacts our footprint with our community and shifts purchasing directly with writers versus big box retailers.
Chapter 6: The blooms we incorporate come from local Virginia farmers or Clifton Farms LLC where my family has resided for decades and continues to actively farm. Quality matters!
Chapter 7: It’s not the final chapter, but rather, the one that continues writing while we innovate our unique love for books, art, and blooms.

“My delivery was visually stunning. From unwrapping the book with all the unique textures, to reading an unforgettable selection. The rose made from a book page. Bookish Bouquet didn’t miss a beat with detail.”
