Celebrity Gig

Those flower bouquets you drew as a kid can finally jump off the page, thanks to Crayola’s latest endeavor.

On Tuesday, the art supply brand launched an online florist called Crayola Flowers in partnership with Mrs. Bloom’s, a flower distributor, per CNN. The two companies will sell bouquets nationwide, with prices ranging from $49 to $150.

Mrs. Bloom’s has been distributing flowers for 20 years with fundraising and helping nonprofits at the forefront of its mission, according to the Crayola Flowers website. Crayola Flowers will be a fundraising platform where buyers can select a nonprofit to receive a percentage of their purchase. Nonprofit organizations can also create storefronts for supporters to purchase flowers, with 10% to 50% of the proceeds going to the charity.
