Planning the perfect holiday party? We have got you covered! Let’s prepare for the holiday with a Thanksgiving themed event that will impress all your guests! From linens to lights, it’s the details that really warm up a dinner table. How do you pull together the finished decor will leave your guests feeling the holiday spirit long after they leave. Ombre Effects Choosing those perfect Autumn shades should stick to one color palette throughout all your decor. Pairing rich reds and burnt orange with metallic touches will add a classic look to your display. We love tall, gold pillar candles among a centerpiece of fall leaves in a mixed color scheme. Having one solid or metallic color will ground the fury of autumnal hues in dishes or other decor. Festive Florals Any time we can incorporate seasonal florals into an event we jump on it! Florals are a beautiful an organic touch that amplify the decor of any party, big or small. We are especially ecstatic for the integrations of bold, orange tiger lilies and not so subtle sunflowers. Pair your arrangements with a mix of eucalyptus and branches for a crisp and bright feel. We flourish our flowers with a mixed size selection of small pumpkins and gourds for varied dimensions on our tables and countertops. Holiday Feast The focus of all our attention on the holidays is of course, the food.

While there are many historical ideas of how the holiday came about, the color red has long been associated with love, passion, and lust. In the 1840’s, Valentine’s cards assembled with ribbons, lace, and pictures were mass produced for the first time. These ornate tokens of love often incorporated red hearts, the symbol of our emotions and love. Artists have long interpreted the heart as a center of life, pumping blood through our circulatory system and controlling those feelings which seem beyond our control. It has become common to hear of our hearts “skipping a beat” or “aching” at the sight or loss of a loved one. The notion of red symbolizing life and the heart housing all our romantic pulls transformed modern Valentine’s Day into a bright display of the color. Paint The Roses Red The gift of red roses also contributes to the symbol of red on Valentine’s Day. The rich, bright color of red roses stands out from all other choices....
