Flowers hold such a majestic power, you can’t help but get mesmerised. It’s as if their vibrance takes your worries away and their sweet-smelling aromas fill you with good thoughts. No wonder, flowers are always welcome in any space.
So get on with a DIY project and create wondrous floral centrepieces for your home or office. They’re sure to let blooming positivity and exquisite charm encase your space. What’s better, you get to do it all with seasonal blooms.
Summer
Balsam, Cosmos, Gomphrena, Marigold, Sunflower, Verbena and the list goes on. That’s why summer blooms are simply the perfect inspiration to get started.
Make the most of warm colours
When creating a floral centrepiece for summer, keep the colour tone of the season and the blooms in mind. And since these summer blooms arrive in myriad colours, yellow, blue, white, pink, orange and so forth, go big on your colour palette. Choose a combination of flowers or go monochrome, no matter what you choose, the colours will add to the aura of your home.
Get creative with the vase
It’s summertime so make sure that every element of your centrepiece speaks of warmth and care. So instead of buying a vase from the market, why not make your own? Create your own little clay pot at home or use seasonal fruits like pineapple or watermelon as a never-seen-before fruity vase.
Monsoon
Rose, Hibiscus, Jasmine, Lotus, Petunia, Gulmohar and many more. Monsoon marks the onset of multiple blooms and that gives you myriad reasons to get creative.
Let the season inspire you
Monsoon offers a variety of themes to pick from and you can use them all for your centrepieces. For example, Monsoon Meadow – Get started with wildflowers and meadow blooms, arrange them in a rustic wooden crate and place them in any corner of your home to make it cosier. Or try something like Raindrop Delight where all you have to do is use raindrop-inspired elements. Beads in your vase, floating candles, floating florals, etc.
Winter
Carnations, Daffodils, Chrysanthemums, Petunia, Pansies, Aster and so on. When it’s cold and breezy outside, make sure to match the vibe of your centrepieces inside.
Play up the whites
Use flowers in shades of blue and white to pay an ode to wintertime – Blue hydrangeas, white roses, alyssum, etc. Play around with the vase too – Glassware, boxes, clear vase, frosty vase, etc. and then finally figure out how you want to mix and match. No matter what you choose to do, the whites and the blues will add a pop of colour to your home and make it look winter-ready.
Have fun with the decor
Centrepieces become twice as elegant and fun when you think through their many decorative elements. For winters, make sure to add dried berries, textured branches, painted snowflakes, icicle ornaments and even warm candles.
Spring
Tulip, Primrose, Crocus, Lily of the Valley, Hyacinth, Bluebell and so forth. Welcome springtime with equally colourful and awe-inspiring floral centrepieces.
Create a Garden-like centrepiece
It’s not spring until you go overboard with blooms. Make your own mini garden in a vase or bowl to get started. Pick your favourite blooms, play around with the colours and adorn your home with the beauty of these magnanimous flowers.
Get creative with props
Who said you have to make the most of spring flowers in a vase? Get your floral plates out, decorate them with fresh blooms and place them as a centrepiece. Or bring out the baskets and decorate them with foliage, fresh flowers, green and more to stir up a truly unique centrepiece.
