Did someone say gumdrops?  I’m there.  Seriously who doesn’t love gumdrops?  Such a fantastically bright and cheery Holiday party from Paper and Pigtails and also featured on Hostess with the Mostess.   We love all of the colorful creative details that were included in this party.  The gumdrop trees, the gumdrop cake, gumdrop necklaces, gumdrop shaped cookies, and of course the gumdrop bouquets in the 6″ white bright blumeboxes.

All of these great details would also work well for a Candyland themed party!

Spruce up your table top this holiday season with live greens!

In our photo at the top we have a lemon Cyprus tree that is not your traditional evergreen but still really festive and we love the pop of chartreuse.  We have placed it in a 4″ bright white blumebox and added a festive touch with candy cane washi tape.  On a side note we are totally obsessed with washi tape.

This is a great idea for centerpieces, mantles, or even great a hostess gift for all of those holiday parties!

What we love most about the holiday season is the endless array of delectable sweets!

We love candy so much that we decided to create peppermint topiaries. We started with Styrofoam cones and painted them red.  And then we affixed the peppermint candy to the cone with a hot glue gun.  We wrapped our  4″ blumebox with ribbon to dress them up, filled them with marbles and put the finished peppermint trees on top.  

This extremely simple and easy whimsical DIY  project, could be less holiday and more suitable for kids birthday parties and candy bars by using different sweets. Sink your teeth into some gumdrops, M&M’s, licorice. . . to name a few!

With cold weather comes the holidays, and we could not be more excited to start entertaining. After endless “ahhh” inspiring hours of scouring Pinterest for amazing holiday ideas, we have built ourselves a fab Holiday Inspiration Board, that bookmarks ideas we hope to use someday!

We melted over these snowman doughnut holes and were excited to re-create them to fit into our new cake pop/lollipop inserts! This is a very simple, fun and fabulous kid appropriate cooking project that would make a great addition to a holiday hot chocolate table!

Dessert tables and candy bars have become a very popular addition to parties and blumebox is excited to announce the release of our cake pop/lollipop insert, that is ideal for displaying all things sweet on a stick. Just like all other blumebox products, the insert easily pops into place and has been designed to fit securely inside our standard 4″ cube blumebox. With 13 holes to select from, the insert displays a good number of sweets. But if you should need more, simply add another 4″ cube and cake pop/lollipop insert and cluster the boxes together with ribbon.

The holiday season is all about sweet delicacies, so consider adding a stick to your desserts and displaying them in the eco-chic cake pop/lollipop insert and blumebox cubes. For ordering these fabulous, new cake pop/lollipop inserts, contact us.

Please note that you will want to find a fun filler that covers the top of the eco-friendly, kraft cardboard insert! In this project we relied on mini marshmallows.

Christmas Decorations in October…Seriously Ikea? Is it really that absurd to assume that we could actually enjoy one holiday at a time? Apparently so. So…If you can’t beat ‘em join em’!

For all those brides to be, with save the dates to be wed this Winter, here is some holiday inspiration from Stem’s Floral Design Studio. The vibrant red carnations paired up with white blumeboxes and black & white damask ribbon rang out Winter Weddings to us! Of course, this popular red, white and black color combination could be just as fabulous year round!

Another fabulous compliment to such a vibrant bouquet as these, would be our brand new black with white edge collection, arriving the end of October!

Mirror mirror on the blumebox!

Our inspiration for this project came from Karen over at The Art of Doing Stuff, who posted this DIY Planter Project. We new right away that using the 4″ cube blumebox as a base would make the gluing process easier and create a more rigid vase.

To re-create this look for the holiday season, start with a 4″ blumebox (color of your choice) and simply use a glue gun to glue 4 x 4″ cubed beveled mirrors to each side of the blumebox cube. Be sure to center the mirror on the blumebox so that the color creates a border.

Use any assortment of holiday florals to fill the mirrored blumebox vase. This centerpiece looks fabulous as is, but would be spectacular as a cluster down a long table or fireplace mantel.

In the spirit of the holidays, we took our 4″ silver satin blumebox cube to showcase the many festive ways in which you can adorn them, making blumeboxes a quintessential part of your entertaining and gift giving needs.

Featured here, is our 4″ silver satin cube filled with red Tulips, green Hypericum, red Roses, Cymbidium Orchids, Pine branches and a fabulous find at the floral market. . . Dianthus Berbatus. We topped the arrangement off with red glass ball ornaments.

This single arrangement makes for a great holiday hostess gift. Duplicate this arrangement by two, four or more blumeboxes to create a wonderful centerpiece for your table or entry way!

Take it up a notch by adorning the same 4″ silver cube with some colored metallic wire in the color of your choice. We used red and simply wrapped the blumebox in wire, creating a subtle elegant touch of holiday cheer!

What better way to fill out a long table or fireplace mantel than with our  4″ cube blumeboxes clustered together to form one long fabulous arrangement! To hold the boxes together, we simply wrapped them with decorative ribbon!
