Truly Classic

vase for foyer

Yesterday, we proved to a customer than timeless is always classic! She came in needing an arrangement for her foyer that would last from spring through fall.  When trying to bridge multiple seasons, the most common problem really comes down to what flowers will not appear only seasonal!  Afterall we are always going for what looks the most realistic!

Truthfully, you don’t have to work that hard, because the answer for this home was simple and straight forward, magnolia leaf and magnolia blossoms!  For height we added birch logs and birch branches! For a little more color we added a few stems of bells of ireland and a few berries around the base.  It really was incredibly simple, while being incredibly realistic (a theme you will see play through the rest of the year…yes that includes Christmas ).

Truthfully this arrangement will look as current today, as it will in 20 years, just remember to dust it!   Classic is just that! Sometimes you really don’t have to work that hard!
