Bouquets & Centerpieces are more than just flowers during the Holidays and winter months. This is the time to incorporate nuts, leaves, whole seasonal fruit. Your local farmers market is a great place to purchase all your seasonal fruit and nuts, and even greenery.
Do not limit you color palette to only traditional combinations. Try new color combinations like lavender/orange with touches of gold or copper, or try red/turquoise with touches of silver. Using vintage vases and containers add that personal touch, and is an easy way to go green. Have fun.
Vintage ribbon & Flowers are great for embellishing bouquets, place cards, napkin rings, and gifts.
Two websites I love are:
www.accessoriesofold.com, for all your vintage ribbons.
Traveling? Give Back while you travel, it is so easy.
Charity Begins is an American non-profit that connects tourists to students in need in the region you are visiting. All you have to do is contact the organization about a month before you depart to receive a parcel of needed educational supplies, at whatever weight or size you prefer. Bring these items with you on the plane, and a local school representative will meet you when you arrive. It's simple and saves charities massive overseas shipping fees.
