Poinsettia
Flowers can’t be left out of winter festive decorations also. Poinsettia is the most remarkable for this period. It is placed in a beautiful plant holder or in a pot covered with decorative wrapping paper or fabric. It is rarely considered that this species can be used as cut flower also, which provides much more creative possibilities.
Let’s pin the flowers with longer stem among the branches of topiaries. This looks good indoor as well as outdoor. The bright red color of the flower fits perfectly for the evergreen bush. Wrap it around with a light garland for enjoying it when night falls. A smaller pine tree can be the base also. Put the flower in separated vases on the mantelpiece then group them for the greater effect. In the case of glass vase, pine branches, berries or decor balls can be put in the water. Put pine branches, berried branches and poinsettias around a big candle on a cake stand. It will be a perfect table centerpiece.
Let’s pin a flower fit in color beside the bow of the Christmas present. It will be a decorative surprise under the tree.
Poinsettia flowers look good on the door wreath also. Even the whole base can be covered with them but a single flower as focal point on the top of the door wreath is a good solution also.
Don’t purchase red flowers only, choose pink, white or cream species fitting for your home. Ask for help of an interior designer for the festive decor also.
Christmas decor
Advent wreath
The sacral advent wreath is made of pine branches, has a round shape, decorated with four candles, three of them is purple and one is pink. They are to be lit on the four Sundays before Christmas, one more on each Sunday, so on the last Sunday all of them are burning. Nowadays we consider the advent wreath freely, it can have any shape and the colors and numbers of the candles can be also different from the tradition, even the lighting is not important, just the decorating function. Let’s choose an advent wreath for our classic home which is integrated to the Christmas decoration and fits to the colors of the interior.
If we would like to decorate the mantelpiece with it, don’t force the round shape. A multi-tined candle holder can be decorated as an advent wreath. Bind pine branches to its body. Stick berry branches among them and decorate it with ribbons and Christmas ornaments.
We can use a porcelain cake stand instead of a wreath body. If we would like to make it more unique, put four smaller saucers on it and insert the tall candles in them. Make sure it stands stably. Fill the saucers with moss, put holly berry or thuja branches around them. The cake stand and the saucers can be different in color but pay attention to harmony.
An antique silver plate could be a perfect base. Stand thick cylinder candles beside each other. Decorate them with ribbons and evergreens. Sprinkle walnuts, peanuts around them and make it more colorful with some apples or dried slices of orange.
For vintage style, put the candles in small tin buckets or clay pots. Fill them with moss. Put them on a wooden disc and use bark as decoration. It’s simpler and shiny solution if we put the white cylinder candles in jars. Just stand them in a row and number.
