Halloween flowers even adults will love

When planning a Halloween party or even when you want to decorate your home during this time of year, you may not be keen on the idea of ghosts and bats in your Halloween flowers. Fortunately, there are some excellent tips for designing bouquets that appeal to adults and children alike! Here are a few tips to keep in mind.

Start simple

The first thing to do is to start with a simple design. You don’t need to specifically order Halloween flowers. You can order an autumn bouquet instead. The flowers you order should include colours like orange, dark green and even a few splashes of off-white. Flowers like roses, carnations and anything in the daisy family will work particularly well. Make sure that you choose several textures to create some contrast.

Choose a vase

You can turn any seasonal bouquet into Halloween flowers simply by changing the vase! Consider placing the blooms in a freshly cleaned or plastic pumpkin, for example. While children may enjoy a pumpkin with a spooky face on the one side, you don’t necessarily need to opt for this design. A plain pumpkin will more than do the trick.

Accessories

Now here is where Halloween flowers are really made! The accessories you use will determine the more precise theme of this bouquet and set it apart from autumn bouquets. Black is a great colour to add for these arrangements but you will not necessarily find black flowers. Fortunately, you don’t need them! You can add black accessories in the form of feathers or painted sticks. Yes, you could add a bat or spider but if you want something more mature for a Halloween dinner party, simple accessories are preferred. You could even paint some berries black in order to add colour contrast and a change in texture.

With these handy tips in mind, you can transform your existing autumn arrangements into Halloween flowers or even create your very own display from scratch! Remember, arranging flowers is all about expressing your personality. So, allow yourself to experiment and enjoy the process of creating a stunning centrepiece!
