Holidays in Bloom II

holiday flowers - bouquet of red flowers by Nicolette Owen - Veranda via AtticmagColor themes plus size variations give holiday flowers a garden-gathered look

These days simple seems most luxurious to me, both for every day as well as special occasions and holidays. That extends to cut flowers which I prefer over all other forms of decoration throughout the house and particularly on tables and mantels. But rather than depend on specific blooms at this time of the year, I look at color and size for floral inspiration – an idea put forward by Nicolette Owen, of Nicolette Camille Floral Design in Brooklyn, New York and coauthor of “Bringing Nature Home,” (Rizzoli, 2012, $32.50). “When selecting flowers, look for a few different shapes and textures,” Owen advises. “Think about leafy material, a showy face flower, and then maybe some wispy, delicate elements.” In a classical style footed vase [top] blooms in shades of red with silvery green leaves evoke Christmas holiday flowers with traditional color but without being doctrinaire.

white flowers plus greenery by Nicolette Owen - Veranda via AtticmagWhite and green – such as “Toulouse-Lautrec” roses and dicentra foliage always feels fresh for the holidays, perhaps because the blooms are the color of snow. Large as well as small white flowers add visual interest to this simple bouquet.
