pinks, pinks + more pinks

Pink 4 Christmas







I came across these beautiful finds, in pink.  I luv their structure + texture + of course the lightness in their various levels of pink... I am thinking Christmas + incorporating the lovely beauty of dahlias, buttom mums + japanese twigs.  


When you think of arranging florals this year for Christmas think of adding pink to your standard red, white + green florals.  For even more drama utilize glorious tulips, lilies + even roses in shades of cream, white + yes, more red + adding your typical pine, juniper, spruce + balsam.  For extra drama, add twigs, boxwood or seeded eucalyptus, berries + fruit.

Happy Arranging
