A Floral Centerpiece for the Holidays

Christmas is coming and it's time to celebrate. If you’re reading this you will probably agree, the best way to celebrate is with flowers! Our designer, Agustina, is here to show you a fun and unique way to tie beautiful blooms into your holiday decor.

What you will need:

Floral Foam

Wooden Skewers

Blade Clippers

Tray or Plate with a lip

Holiday DIY Flower Box

Recipe:

7 Merlot Rose

5 Fortune Rose

5 Ranunculus Butterfly Hades

7 Rosemary

5 Eucalyptus Polyanthemos

5 Red Ranunculus

1. Use skewers to join five rectangles of floral foam to build the base structure for your Christmas creation. With a blade or scissors, trim the edges to form the foam into the shape of your favorite style evergreen. Any size cone works!

2. Using a skewer to make pilot holes where you plan to insert each stem will aid in keeping them strong and able to hydrate longer. For this project, you will want to clip each stem to no shorter than two inches and, like we always suggest, be sure to clip your stems at a 45-degree angle.

3. Starting with the Rosemary and Eucalyptus Polianthemus, begin to build out the volume of your tree as if these green stems were branches.

4. Now come the focal flowers! Use the roses and ranunculus as if they are big, brightly colored ornaments. 

5. It's time to touch up the Christmas tree with Hypericum Burgundy, the beautiful red berries. Fill in any bare spots and have fun!

6. The tree topper is a must and another chance to get creative. And that's it! You have your dazzling floral holiday centerpiece!
