In the small backroom of a wholesale florist, Maxine Burton started a revolution . . .The year was 1982, and Maxine was working at Flowers, Inc. Wholesale, a floral distributor co-owned by her husband, Bob. Silver foil balloons had just been invented, and floral customers were starting to request them. Maxine soon realized that the balloon imprinting process could be used to print a message or design on a balloon, creating a floating greeting card–a concept that would soon transform the floral industry and lead her to found Flowers, Inc. Balloons. Her ingenuity has taken the company from a backroom start-up to The World’s Largest Balloon and Coordinating Gift Supplier. In 2006, Flowers, Inc. Balloons changed its name to burton + BURTON to represent the extensive inventory of balloons, floral supplies, coordinating gifts, and home décor the company offers. Some Things Are More Important At burton + BURTON, we are always looking for ways to provide more meaningful and sustainably sourced product offerings. What better way to celebrate life's special moments than giving a gift that gives back? In 2018, we introduced the Weaving Hope project, which provides schools and feeding programs for children in Rwanda through the sale of handmade baskets crafted by a women's collective in the village of Gitarama. In addition to the Weaving Hope collection of baskets and accessories, we are making a conscious effort to design our products with a more sustainable and earth-friendly intent. Our goal is to use up-cycled and/or recycled materials, as we take pride in being a brand with purpose.
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

Bought this as a quick replacement for a stupidly expensive Etsy mug that my wife dropped a cast iron pan on in the sink (you should not expect that it ended well for the mug, and it did not). She loves this one even more I think, and it came in a box that looks just like the mug that is going to be reused dozens of times for other presents, I think. It's becoming a bit of a running gag.
I gave this as a gift to a mom-to-be who is a big wonder woman fan, and she loved it. Good quality and size for a coffee mug. Would purchase again if the occasion arose.
Such a cute thing to give as a gift. It comes nicely packed in a box with bubble wrap around so it's already set for gift giving. The cup is also pretty heavy not thin and easily breakable
