Christmas Tablescape

Just a quick pic to show you my tablescape. Favorites of mine... red roses, black bears, pine cones and lots of candles. Perfect for a Rocky Mountain Christmas Eve.
After designing and delivering Christmas floral arrangements for four weeks, I simply did not have the energy to create elaborate centerpieces for myself. But nothing makes me happier than roses, simple wide open roses. Roses too open to sell and roses to stunning to toss! The pine cone candelabras were a wedding gift to us and the pine cone table runner was purchased 50% off at Kohls. I love that store!

Wedding flower trends 2009

I designed a beautiful wedding for a lovely bride at The Hotel Boulderado two weeks ago. The bridal bouquet was filled with burgundy dahlias, chocolate cosmos, red freedom roses and uluhe curls. This summer I am seeing a trend of bouquets filled with rich dark colors. Chocolate cosmos and burgundy dahlias are a common theme. These wedding flowers were a nice compliment to the Victorian atmosphere of one of Boulder's most historic hotels.
