How to Pick Out a Beautiful Christmas Centerpiece

According to IBIS World, during 2014-2019, online flower shops have grown by almost 12%, showing just how many people are turning to flowers and centerpieces to decorate their homes. One of the most special occasions to decorate the home is the Christmas season! Here's how to pick out a beautiful Christmas centerpiece that will really stand out.

Pick a Theme

A themed Christmas centerpiece is eye-catching and can add some flair to your home! To choose a theme, consider the already-existing decorations in your home. If you have a lot of Christmas lights and ornaments, consider a more traditional centerpiece. If your home has a natural feel to it, with lots of wooden accents, select some seasonal plants and wildflowers to accentuate the organic look.

Think Beyond Flowers

Christmas-themed centerpieces don't always have to be just flowers. Many florists have other creative ideas like using seasonal fruits, evergreen branches, foliage, or even holiday-colored ribbons. Adding some festive scented candles or a hand-painted vase can also bring in some much-needed holiday cheer.

Don't Forget the Lights

To really make your centerpiece stand out, your florist can add some fairy lights! Whether they're strung around the edge of your centerpiece bowl or woven through the branches of a holiday plant, fairy lights can bring an extra sparkle to any centerpiece.

Choose the Right Flowers

When deciding on fresh flowers for your centerpiece, choose ones that are in season. If it's cold outside, pick winter-blooming flowers like poinsettias or holly berries. Or if it's warmer, you could use traditional Christmas colors like red and green along with some festive greenery like mistletoe, holly, and pine.

No matter what your Christmas centerpiece looks like, the key is to make sure it reflects your style and brings some extra holiday cheer into your home. With some creativity and a few seasonal decorations, you can have a beautiful Christmas-themed centerpiece that will wow all your holiday guests!
