Like many other small businesses writing similar posts, Blue Dahlia is slowing down business operations, but not fully closing.
As I previously mentioned revenue was down 70% last year directly related to the economy and the Trump administration's policies. Which meant I've had to return to work full-time back in January so that my family can make ends meet. This is so bittersweet as running my own business has always been my dream.
What does this mean for Blue Dahlia? We are still open, I am focusing on weddings making couples floral dreams come true and whatever arrangements I can make and put on the website. I am no longer able to attend shows or take custom orders (especially on short notice).
From the Blue Dahlia family to yours, we're wishing you all a prosperous summer and we're hoping we can meet again when our country returns to "normal." Please remember to vote at every opportunity and please vote with your wallet supporting small, local businesses whenever possible. ❤
