How To Make A Citrus Flower Arrangement
How To Make A Citrus Flower Arrangement
"One of my favorite themes for special events for spring entertaining is a citrus theme.
Why? A citrus color palette, with its bright yellows, happy oranges, and deep lime green tones, just makes me happy. It’s bright, it’s cheery and It evokes everything that makes the warmer weather special. You can’t help but think of warm sunshine, the undeniable scent of crisp spring air, and the joy of plants in bloom, when you are surrounded by citrus decor.
A citrus theme is perfect if you are hosting outdoor parties or a Mother’s Day Brunch. I’ve also noticed a lot of buzz around citrus theme bridal showers on Pinterest. It’s just a great way to embrace the season. Citrus flower arrangements not only look great, they are easy to pull together … if you know how! Of course, you can turn to the professional staff of floral designers to pull together your fresh flower arrangements. But, a DIY citrus arrangement is simple project. It is easy to pull together a gorgeous arrangement in just a few minutes.
Step-by-step, I’ll show you how to create your own citrus floral arrangement that is reminiscent of the custom designs that can cost hundreds of dollars. You’ll be amazed!"
