Cindy Crawfordis sharing a glimpse of her and her husbandRande Gerber’s “more traditional” at-home family dynamic.
TheMeaningful Beautyfounder spoke exclusively with PEOPLE about home life while discussing her collaboration withBouquet Boxfor May’slimited edition of the DIY floral bouquet company’s kit.
The supermodel and theCasamigosco-founder, who share sonPresley Gerber, 23, and daughterKaia Gerber, 21, have figured out how to hold down the fort with their respective household management and chores over the course of their 25 years of marriage.
“I was going to joke and say I can barely get him to pick up a wet towel, which is partly true, but I will say if something around the house needs repair — he’ll repair it if he knows how,” Crawford, 57, tells PEOPLE of her built-in handyman who also has a “strong sense of style.”
“You know, if the air conditioning’s not working, he deals with that,” she says of Gerber, 60. “Or if there’s a patch of grass that needs replacing. So I would say we’re pretty good at divvying up the responsibilities of life.”

Though they raised their children with strong morals and values, the mom of two says that there was no “kids table” for them, and that they were always included. “I think because of that, they’re very comfortable in most life situations,” she says.

As far as romantic traditions, Crawford says her husband still buys her flowers.
“I love roses. I think they add such a nice smell,” she says, noting her favorite “is the one that Rande always gets me for my birthday. Pale peach, it’s called. But you really can’t go wrong with any roses. If you take care of them, give them a little bit of love. They last so long.”
“It was just a fun way to empower women to just have fun and not be intimidated. I loved Courtney’s idea. It’s a great way for us to offer something outside of the normal ‘box’ to our customers.”
Echoing her sentiment, Sixx, who enlisted famed floral designer Mark Held from Mark’s Garden to co-design her monthly box, couldn’t be more thrilled to have Crawford as a partner for May.
“I always considered Cindy a role model and the kind of woman I aspired to be one day. I am so grateful for our friendship and excited to share our love for beauty and creativity with flower lovers everywhere,“Sixxshares with PEOPLE.

For Crawford, flowers are one of life’s simple pleasures and a reminder to live in the moment. “The thing that’s beautiful about flowers is they’re only just to be enjoyed,” she says. “You know they’re going to die. There’s not, you know, accruing value or anything. They’re literally just something to delight the senses. And I think that’s why they feel so indulgent and make you happy.”
