Christmas Creations Part 3

October 20, 2010
Whew! Final segment of our evening at Christmas Creations hosted by Oklahoma Flower Market! Prepared for a picture onslaught?

Let's open with this beauty. So lovely! This technique is called sheltering and can really create a pretty show.


These trees also featured prominently in the show:


The major event piece from the show:

Gorgeous! I love those red decobeads in the center.

And can you see all that wirework? Here's a closeup:

This piece just proves how huge wirework is in the industry right now. And I'm drooling over that flat wire!

We'll end with our personal favorite from the show:


Love. Love the graceful movement of those aspidistra leaves. Love the flowers tucked together. Love that its all green. A perfect, contemporary centerpiece for Christmas.

Psst...we're preparing for our own annual open house! Come have a ball with us November 12th and watch for details here and on our Facebook!

Christmas Creations Part 2

October 18, 2010

This Christmas lovely is completed on a new option in the floral world: Stackables! We're hoping to have them in soon since they are perfect for memorial work, but it's nice to see it used on everyday arrangements as well. Great for event work.


Pomanders are featured in this arrangement and I think they're super cute. Also of note is that tree fern topiary!


Closeup of their pomander:


Another arrangement with pomanders. See what I mean? I love it.


What's special about this one? The snow! Can you see it underneath that ornament? So pretty and clean. Another option this Christmas.


Our final segment, Part 3, will be up soon! See that lovely green centerpiece in the background of that last photo? I can't wait to feature it. It was our favorite.

Remember When??

October 13, 2010

We're going to get to Part 2 of the Christmas Creations show soon, but we wanted to remind you that SHS Homecoming is this Friday night! Especially for the Class of 1970 we've had special requests for old school football corsages and we're in the middle of preparing them for you!

But for any class - or for any mom wanting to show off her school spirit (but in a more modern way) - we're ready for you! Give us a call and order yours today! We may be out soon!

A sneaky peek...

Christmas Creations: Part 1

October 7, 2010

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

My boss Pam & I recently had the opportunity to attend Christmas Creations, which is Oklahoma Flower Market's 2010 holiday open house. It was lovely to be inspired for the upcoming season, especially since it's still the beginning of fall and we're trying to mentally think snow! But we're ready!

Here's a few shots of displays around the warehouse and in Part 2 will check out all those awesome fresh designs.

Check out all this green! (Of course...our favorite color is green mutually, so we were quite enthusiastic!)





Mark Erikson, our showman for the evening:



I loooove wirework so I snatch pictures of designs and ideas whenever I find wonderful uses of it.


Pam & I enjoying the evening out. Can't wait to show you all the fresh beauties in part 2!
