With the acquisition, From You Flowers expands into the jewelry sector and moves to solidify its position as a major online gifts retailer. Among product choices such as flower arrangements, balloons, and gift baskets, From You Flowers will now add popular jewelry to its repository of gifts for potential customers through cross promotions with Eve's Addiction in the near future. While FromYouFlowers.com and EvesAddiction.com will be operated independently, the acquisition is expected to enhance product offerings for both customer bases.

Besides cross promotions, From You Flowers will be overseeing the jewelry retailer's web development and digital strategy. "We plan on leveraging our proprietary software platform that we built for From You Flowers to carry out a similar growth strategy in the jewelry category," said CEO Mike Chapin.

Founded in 2004 by President and CEO Ray Galeotti, EvesAddiction.com is known for its customizable jewelry, sterling silver jewelry, and celebrity-inspired jewelry. All jewelry, including engraved and other personalized jewelry, ships within 24 hours of a customer's order.
