It is officially all things Merry and Bright season!! Though I tend to think that Merry & Bright season officially starts November 1st (okay- over here it is more like September) but for a lot of folks- it is more like the day after Thanksgiving. And so- here we are with another twinkling tree – the Floral Christmas tree in the greenhouse from my new Christmas book.
Floral Christmas Tree
This tree was one of my favorites in the book. Well I would say most all of them were favorites in one way or another. But this one just came together one afternoon in September and I was in absolute love with it.
The greenhouse was full of a whole lot of September sunshine and the garden was blooming away beautifully- but I was in full on Christmas mode. After we got back from shooting the Christmas apartment in Paris- I was inspired to create another flower filled tree and the greenhouse was just the perfect spot for it.
I started with a Yukon Spruce tree that I placed into an old cement basket planter and started adding fresh flowers.
Hydrangeas, roses and more
This tree has those beautiful pee gee hydrangeas as a showstopper. The best thing about these hydrangeas? Not only are they gorgeous- they also dry beautifully. I also added simple grocery store shopped white roses, a touch of maroon/purple scabiosa, white snowberries and greens.
Velvet Ribbons
The finishing touch on this tree and honestly many of my trees is velvet ribbon. There is just something about that lovely ribbon that I just adore on the tree. I had a rich forest green ribbon on hand and it was perfection.
