Purple is a very hot color theses days for events and we are excited to announce the very close arrival date (July 26th) of our new Purple Rain. It joins our 17 other colors that creates one beautiful pallet of hues to select from.

We especially love how this beautiful jewel toned purple pairs up with our Sage Green and Silver Satin blumebox products.

The Summer season is filled with parties of all types.  So what better way to treat the hosts than with this creative garden fresh vegetable bouquet.

Shown here is our 8″ cornflower yellow blumebox that we filled with an assortment of lettuce, green onions,carrots and tomatoes that came fresh from the garden. For a little add on, we incorporated salad tongs to the bouquet.

This is just one more idea demonstrating that  blumeboxes are not just to be used for fresh flowers and potted plants.

Easter is just around the corner and blumeboxes make for a great DIY Easter basket project for all ages.

Shown here is a 6″ eucalyptus blue adorned with fake grass blades and PEEPS. To add the handle we poke two holes on opposite sides of one another and laced a ribbon through it. Tie of each end with a knot and you have yourself your very own Easter basket!

Easter is just around the corner and the 4″ blumeboxes are a perfect fit for all the spring potted plants that are starting to pop up at the nurseries. Pot plants of different kinds inside spring colors of blumeboxes and cluster along the table this Easter. Or use them as place cards for your guests by personalizing them with our new scalloped cards!

We love succulents and lucky for us 4″ size fit and look spectacular in our 4″ cubes.

This is a perfect house warming gift, hostess gift, birthday gift that is sure to make a nice addition in someones home. While we love the way the neutral blumebox hues suit the organic nature of the plants, do not be afraid of some color and by any means there is no such thing as too many succulents!!!!

Re-create this:

· white 4″ cubes from blumebox

· any 4″ succulent of your choice

· moss is optional to cover the top surface of the potted plant

We love the crisp clean look of this idea that comes courtesy of my mother-in-law. You can use real topiary’s or the fake ones are pretty darn good looking these days!

For a slightly different take on this concept, consider pushing the boxes together to form one solid structure and tie off with twine or ribbon, making for a great table centerpiece or entry way bouquet.

Re-Create This:

· 3 x 4″ white bright cube blumeboxes

· 3 x real or fake topiary plants (4″ size)

· moss to cover up open space between potted plant and blumebox

Michelle at Lemiga Events created this adorable pink & green argyle festooned centerpiece for her little girl’s first birthday. Filling the blumebox with a puffy bouquet of pink and green carnations was not only super cost effective but added a touch of whimsy to the table. We think this design would work well for all sorts of events – from bridal showers to summer rehearsal dinners. How cute would they be at a country club dinner party?!? If you have not already, we encourage you to see all of Lemiga Events innovative ideas by visiting their blog. Recreate this today using a 6in pink blumebox flower vase.
