Crafting your very own Christmas centerpiece may seem like a daunting task, but it certainly doesn’t have to be that way. If you’re in need of a fresh and innovative idea GlobalRose is here to help with some easy steps you can follow along with so that your dining room table looks #AbsolutelyFestive this Christmas!

Colors: 

First and foremost, select your color palette. This will dictate the entire feeling of the design. For the Christmas, go with the absolute classic red and green!  You can also bring your arrangement to life by adding extra detail, little personal nuances such as sparkly gold-treated branches (which can be purchased at craft stores such as Hobby Lobby or Michael’s) or silvery mistletoe that can be wrapped along the stems of flowers for that extra little festive touch. We also highly recommend experimenting with warmer colored hues such as deep plum purples and resonating golden oranges. and moreover, simple pairings such as white and silver or white and gold are equally as impressive; both pair gracefully with greenery and pine detailing.

Candles/Accessories: 

That all being said, no Christmas centerpiece would be complete without some well chosen accessories! Whether you choose to go with real candles or electronic ones, there’s no denying their effect! They add a genuine warmness that is both elegant and gentle and if you’ve ever walked into a room lit with candles you’ll know exactly what we mean. The ambiance changes.

Ornaments such as small Christmas tree bulbs and Christmas lights that compliment your desired color scheme are another great way to really dress up your arrangements for the holidays and to make use of any older or unused Christmas decorations.

You may also consider beautiful Christmas ribbons to wrap around your vase, bells that jingle, pine cones, tree branches, or decorative fruit even. Let your imagination run wild and you might just surprise yourself with what you create!

Crafts/Containers: 

You can choose to spend a little more time on your vase if you wish for a particularly innovative display. An example of this, try lining the outside of a low square vase with candy canes for a sweet touch or a table that has the center lined with mason jars is another friendly idea that is a little more down to earth and kitschy if that suits your taste.

Inspiration:

From everyone here at the GlobalRose Blog we’d like thank you all for reading! We wish you and yours a very merry Christmas and happy holidays!

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…ok, it’s not always about numbers, but when it comes to flowers…you may want to factor that in. After all, there is wisdom behind, “the more the merrier”. Sweet blooms that explode into aromatic bliss. The hunger for beauty persists in our souls and in flowers we may find solace. Perhaps the Christmas season is one of the greatest of all to reflect upon this state of the human condition.

Our holiday flowers make excellent decor around the house or at special events. Bring the warmth of the season to your heart and feel your being expand my the gentle sway of a petal’s command. Delicate and masterful, it is easy to get lost in floral splendor. How divine to be dipped in all this decadence that no words could quite justly capture.

The mind soars to the greats of heights with a surrounding that is conducive to its freest expression. We have delight holiday offers that are sure to be pleasant surprise and invite you to take advantage. After all, this time only comes around once a year.

The table is an array of wonder: colors, scents and endless tantalizing visuals. One may lean back into an episode of euphoria as the sensations are over-stimulated until a strange frenzy resembling a heat stroke commands one’s temple. That’s what we think of when we recall a Thanksgiving feast…call us crazy if you wish.

Aesthetics are very important part of the human experience. To paraphrase from chef Eric Ripért: it is important to be excited or enticed by what we see on our plate before us, to nourish us in every aspect. Visuals play a big role in our lives.

Hence, when it comes to flowers, we perhaps address the rulers on this playing field of beauty. They present to us such a phenomenal display, our moods are at once enhanced by their presence…a unique talent, you have got to hand it to them.

Garnish your days with something special and enjoy the impressive power flowers possess in your home or to make someone’s day. It does not matter the reason, they are always appropriate.
