For years, I have been a tried and true deep red person (cranberry, crimson, whatever!) when it comes to holiday colors. I love it paired with shades of gold and holiday green. BUT, this year I am on the gray bandwagon.  I can’t get enough of gray from home design, to clothing, to my winter scarf, AND as always all of those trends influence flower design.

So check out the beauty of this alternative color palette – with accents like birch, Dusty Miller, Brunia berries, and soft green like Hypericum berries, hydrangea, and Cymbidium orchid florets. And, with a dash of evergreen you have a completely new look for the holidays!
