Today's blog serves up a delectable dish of creative ideas, guiding you through the creation of an enchanting cut flower arrangement against a backdrop of serene blue and white. It's the perfect path to a Thanksgiving tablescape that's as chic as it is warm and inviting
Before we get started, here are 3 three tips to help you source the freshest cut flowers and foliage from the garden to your table:
- Seek out evergreen foliage: Uncover the treasures hidden in popular landscaping plants like pittosporum, holly, nandina, cleyera, and of course, Encore Azalea foliage! These beauties shine all season and add texture and flair to your arrangements.
- Use sharp, clean tools: Just like friends passing around a nasty cold, plants can share diseases too. It’s important to wash your snipping tools between different plants when you’re in the garden taking cuttings.
- Take a bucket with you: If you’re like us, a stroll through the garden quickly turns into a chat with the neighbors, an impromptu weeding session, and a trip to the mailbox to pour over holiday catalogs. Bring a water-filled bucket to put your fresh-cut stems directly in so they don’t dry out on the (potentially LONG) way back to the house.
