Procrastinators Take Heed: A Last Minute Christmas Decorating Tip

"Holiday Happiness" Christmas Flowers

Christmas is barely three days away. Many are already coming together for family and friend celebrations. Despite the ticking clock, I’ve decided to help out the procrastinators who are choosing the last minute to start prepping for Christmas.

Tip #1 and Only:  Don’t forget the flowers!

Just in case you missed that last one, here it is again. Don’t Forget The Flowers! Christmas flowers are a large part of the holiday celebration. They bring a festive air to the home and office. They bring joy to the face of someone receiving a Christmas bouquet from their local florist. Flowers are an unforgettable part of Christmas, so whatever you do–don’t forget the flowers!

Here are some ideas for adding floral pep to your holiday celebration:

• Mistletoe will never go out of style. Hang it freely and proudly. It WILL earn a grin, guaranteed.
• Decorate the table with a festive Christmas flowers centerpiece using red, green and white flowers. Florists often sell flowers by the stem so you can test your creativity at home. As the day approaches faster, your florist will be your favorite holiday helper. Even Santa has a few of those.
• If you’re entertaining children, use fun animals and kiddie Christmas images in your arrangements. Rudolph Christmas arrangements are fun treats that your local florist can help you obtain.
• When sending flowers for Christmas, include a festive holiday enclosure card message. These will light up the face of the recipient like a strand of Christmas tree bulbs at midnight.

Just remember to have fun. Merry Christmas from Flower Shop Network!
