How to Make Simple Mini Thanksgiving Flower Arrangements

Thanksgiving Flower Arrangement Options

It's nearly Thanksgiving. You've probably already decided what you're going to cook and who's gonna bring what. But have you thought about a centerpiece for the table?

A gravy boat and some jellied cranberry sauce on a pretty dish do not a centerpiece make.

But, if you're not really crafty, what can you do?

You Can Get A Traditional Thanksgiving Floral Arrangement 

Autumnal-hued roses, mango calla lilies, dripping with bronze chyrsanthemums, red pears, foliage of many kinds and other stuff you can't even name. Sometimes, there are even candles embedded in them.

I know, because I make them. If you'd like one, you can order it here.

But, maybe this year you'd like to try something different. Perhaps you want a simpler, more relaxed Thanksgiving.  Enter the simple mini Thanksgiving flower arrangement.

Centerpieces that involve nothing more than cutting small clusters of flowers and putting them into a glass or small vase. Of course, you do have to get some flowers though.

 

  

You can put one of these mini Thanksgiving centerpieces at each place setting. You can place them here and there along a table. Or you can cluster them in a group on a cake stand or pretty tray.

 Here's how to get the look:

• Get a few small stem glasses or vases. They don't have to match or be the same size. I'd use all the same color though for continuity. The shape doesn't matter, but the stemware must be deep enough to hold flower stems. You may not want to use your finest for this. Buy mismatched ones from your local thrift shop.
• Buy a bunch or several bunches of flowers depending upon how many arrangements you plan to make. Sunflowers are way too big and heavy for these arrangements. Small flowers, roses, pom poms, berries, carnations are good choices. Consider the colors you're using on the tables as a jumping off point for your flowers.

• Or make mini arrangements of all one kind of flower or all one kind per vase. You decide what you like best.
• Condition your flowers. Learn how here.
• Cut the flowers apart and create little bouquets of flowers. Trust your own judgement about what looks good.  
• You may want to take the flowers and separate them into piles first. If you are making 5 arrangements then make 5 piles with a rose, then add a carnation to each pile, then the next flower... That way you 'll be sure to have enough flowers for all your mini arrangements.
• You can do this the day before you need them. 
• These arrangements are great for other places in your home like the bathroom, bedroom or office.

The mini flower arrangements above were made in small glass candle holders and then wrapped in corn husks.

If you'd like to elevate your mini Thanksgiving flower arrangements and don't have a cake stand. Learn how to make one here. 

I often make these kinds of mini flower arrangements at  In fact.  I made 60 of them for a farm-to-table event last week here in downtown Yonkers. 

Customers buy them as birthday gifts for co-workers. You can make these yourself and give them as gifts too.

So it's time to get started on this project. If you're still feeling like you can't pull this off alone, invite a crafty friend or relative over to help the night before. 

And please, let me know how they turn out.

5 Paper Flower Headpieces You'll Love

 I love paper flowers. So I thought I'd share some beautiful paper flower headpieces I came across while online. I could have called them hats, but somehow that word just doesn't do these stunning creations justice.

 

5 Paper Flower Headpieces

 

Hayley Sheldon 

 1. I really love the attention to detail and embellishments on this one. The colors are great too, don't you think?

 

 Eloise Corr Danch 

2. I wonder how people come up with such fabulous designs? This ones's a beauty, but I don't think you could get on the subway with it.

 

Katsuya Kamo 

3. Just like when you create floral designs with fresh flowers, the details really show up when you use a single color.

 

 Brittany Watson 

4. This one really says spring or should I say fall? The color combo is lovely and bright.

5. In my floral design, I tend to use bold colors, but truth be told, I really love these muted shades. The slight variations in color make this one very sophisticated I think.

7 Tips for Choosing Mismatched Bridesmaid Bouquets

Can't decide which bridesmaid bouquet to choose?

Why not have your bridesmaids carry different bouquets?

 

Bridal Bouquet

 

If you're a creative type and are looking to distinguish your wedding from others, you may want to consider having your bridesmaids carry different bouquets.

 

Zumaphoto

Most brides opt to have matching bouquets and dresses in the same colors. But when it comes to your wedding, you get to do things your way.

 

Will it cost more to have your bridesmaids carry different bouquets?

It might. If your budget is tight, having to buy lots of different flowers that may not be used elsewhere in your wedding can add up. But, if you choose nice inexpensive flowers in the right colors it might work.

Photo: Shane Welch

Most of my brides at Fly Me To The Moon Florists want a pretty uniform look among their bridesmaids. They may wear different dresses or shoes of the same color or tone. Their hair can be up or down. But almost always, the bridesmaids bouquets must match. But they don't have to.

 7 Tips For Choosing Mismatched Bridesmaid Bouquets

Marianne Taylor Photography

1. Use bouquets of different flowers in a single color. I like this, because a single color unifies the look. Monochromatic bouquets are always beautiful especially if you use a lot of interesting textures. Not all flowers come in all colors though. So do your research before you select your color.

 

Niki Rossi

2. Try matching the shoes and bouquets.  This works, because all of the women are wearing the same color. I absolutely love this whimsical idea. Even though a variety of flower colors are used, the matching shoes make it unique, but classic. If you look at this photo in 20 years, you won't be saying to yourself, "What the heck were they thinking?"

 

Anna K. Photography

3. Use different color bouquets and dresses. In my opinion, this look is a bit harder to pull off, but not impossible. Though each bouquet needs to complement each dress, all the different dresses and bouquets need to go together.You want everything to look intentional and cohesive. Not like a big hodge podge of color, unless of course, that's the look you were going for.

 

 

 LeAnna Theresa Photography

 4. Keep the color palette simple. Use one, two, but no more than 3 colors in the flowers and dresses. Using different shades of one or two colors can look quite sopisticated.

 

 

Tac Petaja

 5. Keep bouquets small to medium in size. This will prevent any of the colors from being too overwhelming.

6. Select dresses in the same color, but in different styles. 

 7. Use only a few types of flowers and arrange them in different ways.

 

I love when brides get creative. My job is to keep it elegant and within the budget. I guess that's what makes floral design so interesting!

12 Tips For Fooling People With Fake Flowers

Why Fake Flowers?

Some people prefer fake flowers, because they require little or no care, don't die and never go out of season. 

 

 Image: Pany Floral Corp

 

 Even though we don't sell fake flowers at Fly Me To The Moon, I admit, even I have some at my house. I live in an apartment in New York City,  where it's hot all year long unless the air conditioner is on. Not the best conditions for keeping fresh flowers alive.

But let's face it. There are good fake flowers and bad ones.

I know. I know. I'm not supposed to call them fake. Some people call them artificial. Others refer to them as silk, though they aren't. You can call them faux flowers if that makes you happy. And the floral industry gets a kick out of calling them permanent botanicals.

But, no matter what you call them, there's really no reason for them to look fake anymore. Here's how to keep people guessing:

 

 12 Tips For Fooling People With Fake Flowers

 

1.  Research fresh flowers. Before you can buy good-looking fake flowers you need to know what real ones look like. Visit a florist or look at images of real flowers online. Be sure to check out the leaves. Each flower has its own leaf shape. Makers of fake flowers blow it on this point all the time. By the way, different types of flowers don't all grow on one stem either. I'm just saying.

 

 
Image: Pany Floral Corp.

 

2.  Choose flowers in realistic colors. Look for fake flowers in natural colors. There are no black lilies or roses in nature. No neon blue flowers either. If you're creating flower arrangements for a cutting edge special event, then go ahead and play with color. But, if you want those unrealistic colors to match your sofa they may look nice, but they won'r look natural. Which is fine, if that's the look you're going for.

 

Image: Polyvore 

 

3.  Invest in good quality fake flowers. Realistic fake flowers aren't cheap. But they will look a thousand times better than cheaper ones for years to come.

 

4.  Buy great looking inexpensive fake flowers. If you can't afford expensive ones, buy those that look like them. Visit a store that sells high-end fake flowers and study them. What makes them look real?  Notice that they're never shiny. How do they display them? Pottery Barn is a good place to get ideas on how to incorporate fake flowers into your space. 

 

5.  Avoid weird details. Some fake roses have plastic water droplets on them. You can just peel these off. Others have little baby's breath type growths. Remove these too. Flower manufacturers think these things make the fake flowers look prettier. They're wrong.

  

6.  Beware of super thick stems. Bunches of fake flowers are wired individually then enclosed in thick plastic to create one giant stem. You get lots of flowers for the price of one. Hide those stems in a vase you can't see through. 

 

 

Image: Welcome Haven

 

7.  Divide and multiply. Just because your fake flowers may come in a bunch doesn't mean they have to stay that way. Separate bunches of them into different vases. Use wire cutters to cut the stems. If you use your good scissors, they won't be good anymore. An inexpensive pair of wire cutters should do the job. Learn how to make flower pens out of fake flowers here.

 

Image:  Pottery Barn

 

8.  Go monochromatic. Find one fake flower you like. Buy lots of them in the same color. Place them in a clear glass vase with the stems arranged in an orderly design. I think this is one of the most stylish ways to display them.

 

 

Image: Doryn Wallach
 

 

9.  Limit your color palette. Decide on a color scheme. To achieve an elegant look, use no more than 2 or 3 colors. Those colors should relate well to each other. If one flower is mostly pink, but has a hint of green and white use those colors to complement the first flower. Using 25,000 different colors will make your fake flower arrangement look all over the place. Focus on a few colors for the best result.

  

10.  Dust them. If you don't keep dust off your fake flowers,  they'll look an awful lot like fake flowers.  Real flowers don't get dusty! Unless you're one of those who bring your fresh flowers home, put them in a vase and allow them to die in place without a single bit of care. 

 

 11.  Add fake flowers to real flower arrangements. If there are real flowers that are too expensive or not in season for a special event, replace those with high quality fake ones. If you follow the tips above, few will even notice. 

 

12.  Just add water. Some people add water to their fake flower arrangements in clear vases to give the illusion that they are real. 

So those are my 12 tips for fooling people with fresh flowers.

Actually, at  Fly Me To The Moon Florists, we have the opposite problem. People have the illusion that our real flowers are fake. Either they think they're too pretty to be real or they've never seen them before. Not a bad problem to have I think.

Flower Market To Vase: How I Make Flower Arrangements

Customers often ask how I come up with the floral designs at our boutique flower shop, Fly Me To The Moon.  So I thought I'd share me process with you.

 

Begin The Flower Arrangement With The End In Mind

My goal in working with flowers is to create lovely flower arrangements that will last as long as possible. How do I achieve this? By buying the freshest flowers. Purchasing from the best wholesalers in New York. Avid researching and conditioning of the flowers. And teaching our customers how to care for them. 

 

 Fly Me To The Moon 

 

The Flower Hunt Begins

It's 5:26 am, Monday morning. I'm at the Chelsea Flower Market in NYC ready to select flowers for the shop. They came into New York at 2:00 am, so all of them should be on display by now. 

As much as I love buying flowers, I always glance longingly at those taking leave of 28th street before 5:30, flower-filled boxes in hand. It's like they've won some race I've arrived too late to even lose. In the flower business, the early bird really does catch the worm, but luckily, I can call ahead and ask the wholesalers to hold flowers for me.

 

 Frank Lamendola

 

Finding The Right Flower

I generally come to the flower district with a list of "must buy" flowers for the shop. But for my corporate clients, I'm looking to be inspired by some new discovery. It may be a flower I've never seen before. Or an unusual plant material like brunia or celosia

Often a rose is my inspiration flower. Some floral designers won't use them in their weekly accounts, but I know just the right varieties that perform well and look great.

 

-

Fly Me to The Moon

 

Select Flowers To Enhance The Flower Arrangement

Next, I search for flowers that will enhance the look of my inspiration flower. It can either match or complement it. If a flower has three colors, I may choose flowers in some of those shades. 

I generally use a minimum of 3 different types of flowers in an arrangement. But, I often use more. Adding interesting foliage and fillers can sometimes take the place of a flower.

 

Incorporating Flowers I Already Have

I also consider what I have back at the shop in our walk-in cooler. Do I have something that would add great texture or presence to the flower arrangement? These flowers or plant materials were either purchased late last week or have a long vase life.

 

Choose A Vase

A vase is often the first thing I choose, but since this corporate client prefers cube vases, I keep a bunch of them in different colors on hand and change from week to week. I sometimes use a cylinder vase to change it up once and a while. The arrangements for this particular client go on the concierge desks of luxury buildings down on the waterfront in Yonkers, New York.

 

 Fly Me To The Moon Florists

 

Listening To The Flowers

This is gonna sound a little crazy, but here goes.  I listen to the flowers.

I believe every flower in an arrangement has a perfect spot and that once placed there, it sings.  Now, I've never actually heard a flower sing a note, but when I find that sweet spot all is right with the world everything else just falls into place. The arrangement of all the other flowers seems easy. Believe it or not, this is actually easier for me to do on a busy day like Valentine's Day. 

Another floral designer could create a beautiful yet entirely different arrangement using the exact same flowers. I guess that's where "having an eye for floral design" comes in. With no formal training in floral design, I thank God for this gift.

 

Flower Arrangements Need a Little Something Wrong

I read a post the other day by Holly Becker over at Decor 8. She mentioned that a friend, Sania Pell, a London-based stylist once told her that "you need a little wrongness to make something right, especially when styling a room or vignette." 

I think the same principle holds true for floral design. A flower arrangement becomes more interesting when it has something unexpected. Something that doesn't belong there. You know, something wrong.

 

Fly Me To The Moon 

 

So sure, I can make a flower arrangement sticking to a strict color palette and use of foliage or I can add something to it that takes it a step out of the ordinary. That's what I did when I added both the "gray" globe thistle and bright purple flowering artichoke to the above arrangement. It would have been fine without those elements, but see how much more interesting it is with them?

So, that's my process for creating flower arrangements. You can see my floral design posts here. I hope you try at least one of them. If so, please let me know how it turns out in the comments below.

What should you look for in a floral designer?

 What should you look for in a floral designer?

 

reddingaz

 

Picture this. A bride walks into a flower shop for a wedding consultation. She either has a lot to spend on flowers or she doesn't. She's intimidated by all the possibilities. And has never bought a flower before in her life. Never.

If you've planned a wedding or a special event, you may have experienced these same thoughts and emotions.

 At Fly Me To The Moon, I work closely with you to allay those fears. I want to hear your story. The role the flowers play and how you want to feel when you step into the room. That's how I build the relationship.

I witnessed something on the subway this morning, that demonstrated what you should look for in a floral designer.

 

Erica Rose Design - Catherine Hall Studios

 

I was on my way into Manhattan to buy lace for a bridal bouquet. A blind woman got on the #1 train with her service dog a few stops later.

She asked if the two seater across from me was available. A fellow passenger said it was. She proceeded to sit as her dog lay dutifully at her feet.

As the train left the station, she began to pull on the dog's harness. He had plopped down somewhere between her seat and the vacant one next to her.

Fueled by either her desire to tuck the dog under her seat, to leave ample room for another passenger, or to prevent him from being trampled upon, she continued to ever so gently tug and slide the rather big dog into place. She kept dragging him until he allowed himself to be re-positioned exactly where she wanted him. 

What has this got to do with floral designers? Well, plenty I think.

 

 

via The Knot

 

What to look for in a floral designer:

1.  Willingness to be a member of the team - The woman and her dog were unified. She wanted the dog in a certain spot and that's where he decided to be.  

You and the floral designer must "be on the same page." There has to be a committment from both parties to work together to make the event a success through flowers.

If what you want is something the floral designer can't or won't do it needs to be made clear right up front. Failure to do so makes the process of working together a burden rather than a joy. 

 

via Stock Photo

 

2.  Great listening skills - The blind woman and her dog had a symbiotic relationship. They had trained together, knew what to expect from each other and trusted each other. I watched the dog as he was being shifted around. His expression never changed. He was a professional and being moved around like a piece of furniture did not bother him at all.

A potential floral designer should be listening to you intently and taking notes. When I do consultations, I want as much info as I can get about your event. Those details influence what I do with your flowers.

 

 Image: Patricia Lyons

 

3.   Confidence in each other - The woman felt perfectly comfortable moving her dog. She didn't say a word to him other than sit.The job of   her service dog is to give her a greater sense of mobility, independence and peace of mind. He knows that and acts accordingly. They make a winning team.

When looking for a floral designer, you have to do your homework. Spend time on floral design websites. Read reviews. Seek recommendations from people with great taste.

But ultimately, you need a floral designer that "gets you" and whose opinion you respect. A floral designer that has your best interests at heart. And one who will feel comfortable enough to tell you if you're making a mistake.

When I began as a floral designer, I was afraid to tell a bride that what she wanted was not going to look right. I don't do that anymore. I suggest alternatives and if the bride disagrees and doesn't hire me, I consider us both blessed.

So do you homework. Trust your instincts. Then hire a floral designer that will:

1. be a member of your team

2. listen to you

3. and make you feel confident that your flowers will be exactly what you wanted or even better.

Because, when you've got the right person, neither one of you should have to "roll over and play dead."
