Autumn On Your Table

Now that fall has arrived, it’s time to celebrate the beauty of the season. Stunning decor and tablescapes are a great start to festive entertaining, and the design professionals at Curran’s Flowers have some great ideas for you to try this season. Instead of a traditional table runner, opt for a unique and natural look with magnolia leaves down the middle of your table for a rustic runner. Create stunning texture with maize and wheat arranged across your table or on a cake stand for maximum impact. Include candles in all shapes and sizes for a perfectly mismatched look. Candlelight adds ambiance, and short round tri-wick candles provide a different vibe than tall tapers. Mix them all for a beautiful balance and whimsical effect.

Fall’s Colors and Textures

.single #maincontent .img-featured { object-position: top; } Beautiful fall colors and textures give your seasonal fall decorating a depth that evokes the feeling of walking through an autumn forest. The creative experts at Curran’s Flowers have some excellent decorating ideas for bringing harvest textures into your decorating scheme this season. Use existing space to maximize height or depth. Tall ceilings are great for woodsy branches. Utilize porch steps or an indoor staircase to showcase gorgeous fall flowers. Play with light to create new dimensions with your decor. Add candles in votives made of carved apples or mini-pumpkins, or twirl fairy lights among fall leaves for a starlight effect. Include plenty of natural elements to create texture that displays the essence of fall. Acorns, pinecones, pumpkins and other gourds lend a new dimension to your decor.

Flowers We Never Forget

Every Easter, my mom sends my family a beautiful arrangement of Calla lilies. It’s her way of staying connected to us even when we can’t be together for that holiday. My children know “Grandmother’s been here” when they see a new arrival of lilies each spring, and we always send her a Thank-You picture of all of us together in our Easter dresses next to her flowers. The tradition of receiving these beautiful flowers is just as meaningful as the gesture itself. Currans Flowers knows that including flowers in part of your family traditions makes the occasion even more meaningful, and it gives that particular flower special meaning, too.
