Floral Trends 2022

In 2022 we turn to the expressiveness of flowers, now more than ever, to lift our spirits. While it is being proclaimed the year of the tulip for its joyful conjure, key themes that we see for this year are seasonality, minimalism, organic floristry, all keeping a balance of serene and calming pallets with pops of interest and vibrant, optimistic color. Ultimately its all about the vibe, and in 2022 color and texture all play vital roles in conveying a sense of optimism.

2015 Holiday Showcase

Every year Blondie’s Holiday House designs and installs hundreds of Holiday displays. Each account is unique, site-specific and produced in our Holiday workshop that functions year round. Now that it is early January we have a flood of decor streaming back into the building. Each account is assessed and stored until it is time to refurbish or redesign for the next holiday season. 2015 was a really exciting year with an emphasis on monochromatic and tonal design. We saw ornaments being massed together to create a tight and opulent texture as well as an interest in a mixed metallic palette. Incorporating natural elements such as pods, ferns and cones was also very popular. Here is a sampling of what was out there this year…. enjoy !

When inter-planted in a garden they combine well with perennials and add a visual pop of botanical interest. Blondie’s relies on this bulb in our urban gardens as they do such a great job of adding horticultural diversity and seasonal color.
And with this much character….what’s not to love?!
