WEEKLY BUSINESS HIGHLIGHT

BRAMBLE AND BEE

If you’ve ever wandered through downtown Tomball and stumbled upon the charming little flower shop on Commerce Street, you’ve probably seen the magic that is Bramble & Bee. This isn’t your average flower shop—it’s a full-on floral experience. Whether you’re planning a wedding, need a gorgeous arrangement for a special occasion, or just want to brighten someone’s day, this place has you covered.

Bramble & Bee is all about organic, garden-style floral designs—think elegant, free-flowing, and full of life. Owner Maggie Bailey started the shop in 2014, bringing a fresh take on floristry to Tomball. Instead of stiff, cookie-cutter bouquets, their arrangements look like they’ve been gathered straight from a beautiful English garden. It’s wild, natural, and absolutely stunning.

What makes Bramble & Bee stand out is the experience. They don’t just sell flowers—they offer:
🌿 Custom Wedding & Event Flowers – Whether it’s a grand wedding or an intimate gathering, they’ll bring your floral vision to life.
🌿 Flower Deliveries & Subscriptions – Imagine having fresh, seasonal blooms delivered to your door on a regular basis. Yes, please!
🌿 Workshops & Events – If you’ve ever wanted to learn the art of floral design, they host hands-on workshops where you can get creative with flowers.

The shop itself is just as special as the arrangements. Located at 311 Commerce St., it’s a cozy little spot filled with fresh flowers, houseplants, and unique gifts. It’s the kind of place that invites you in, makes you want to stay awhile, and always leaves you feeling inspired.

If you’re looking for something beyond the typical grocery store bouquet, Bramble & Bee is the place to go. They’re open Tuesday-Friday from 10 AM to 5 PM and Saturdays from 9 AM to 12 PM. Stop by, check out their work, and maybe even treat yourself (or someone else) to a little floral beauty.

You can also place an order online.

GOWNS & GLAM

Gowns and Glam is a nonprofit that seeks to bring free prom dresses to the senior girls of our Tomball community that are in special need to make sure every girl feels her worth. Because of all the generous donations, Gowns and Glam has started the process of collecting dresses for these girls.

If you have dresses you would love to donate, please send them a message expressing your support.
