The color we associate with sunshine is just about as cheerful as it gets. Mixing one of the most recognizable heralds of spring – the smile-inducing daffodil – with elegant black and white accents can turn any occasion into a gala event.

This look was created using a tall Cornflower Yellow blumebox, filled tightly with a dozen daffodils. A black, patterned ribbon was affixed at an angle, and topped with a scalloped, monogrammed tag. The entire arrangement took only minutes to assemble, but the overall look was simply elegant.

This easy yet elegant flower vase was used as a table decoration on the guest book table at a wedding.  As a last minute idea by the florist to use a left over centerpiece flower vase, the result is stunning.  You too could easily re-create this floral arrangement in minutes.
Pictured is a tall passion pink blumebox flower vase adorned with thin decorative ribbon (2 pieces per side) attached with glue to the top and bottom of the blumebox.
Chocolate brown paper was cut with scalloped sheers to accentuate the monogram piece and then simply layered with pink paper followed by rub-on letter decals of the letter/s of choice.

Michelle at Floribunda Designs is the mastermind behind this watercolor inspired pink, black and white wedding centerpiece.
She started with a 6″ pretty-n-pink blumebox and added subtle touches of elegance by stamping the couple’s initials onto heavy paper then cutting narrow strips of more paper in a corresponding color to create a ribbon. She added a white boa to the neck of the blumebox, adding a delicate touch of gossamer to the arrangement.

This is such an elegant wedding centerpiece, yet was created very simply using her scrap-booking skills.

This color combo that Heather at Outstanding Occasions put together is a fave of ours! We love the contrast that’s so crisp, clean, and STUNNING! The pale blue and red party theme was incorporated into every detail, from the blumebox centerpieces, to the favors,  even the Strawberry-Lime, and Berry Lemonade Jones sodas were a perfect match.
