Flowers are always a pleasant gift to receive. The hues decorate the house and the fragrance creates a warm ambiance that is welcoming. Flowers and Christmas are like Santa and the reindeer's; one just can’t do without the other. The style of flower arrangement varies from person to person- some like them in the good old bouquet and some want something more, a bit of creativity. To some, a basket made of raffia does it and for others, a metallic container is just perfect to hold their flowers in. Still to do with an arrangement, some may have the bigger ones at the top and work their way down with the little flowers or have them mixed up to create different patterns with the colors. Bouquets should smell enticing and look even better.
Here are some design ideas that will make your Christmas floral gift one to remember
Mix your germinis and roses
Red and white are the colors that most of us go for when we want winter bouquets, but who said that’s all there is to it? Germinis and roses especially deep colors, say red or orange- give brilliant and varied blooms. Entwining them with hypericum berries gives the bouquet a vibrancy that is refreshing as well as inviting.
Throw in colors that go with the vase
In this bouquet the hues, the flowers are mixed at random to create an eye-catching array of colors. The red alstroemeria, yellow poms and orange roses are picked at random and carefully placed together. The look for this bouquet is finished off by means of a green leather leaf in its outer portion. Cinnamon cider roses add a great effect to the whole arrangement, making it complete.
A monochromatic look
Currently, interior design is exploring the concept of color blocking to bring out different combinations with colors that were before thought not to go together. That exciting trend is incorporated into this flower arrangement. Having them in a short vase will allow the flowers to be the focal point of the whole set up.
