The holiday season can sneak up on you, and before you know it, it's time to host holiday gatherings. If you are looking for quick and creative ways to decorate your home, order Christmas flowers from a local florist in South Yarra. To make the job easier, we have shared easy décor hacks using fresh flowers that bring festive cheer to every corner of your home.
Floating Floral Ornaments
Grab some clear glass baubles from your local craft store and fill them with small blooms like baby's breath or miniature roses. Add a touch of water, and hang these floating floral ornaments on your Christmas tree or in a window for a magical effect. It's a simple addition that brings a bespoke charm to your holiday decor.
- Festive Flower Bowls
Take wide, shallow bowls and fill them with water. Float camellias, holly sprigs and floating candles in them for a stunning centrepiece. This decor hack not only looks beautiful but can also be set up in minutes, perfect for those unexpected holiday guests.
- Quick Floral Garland
String together a garland using sprigs of holly, mistletoe, and ivy. Intersperse with red and white carnations for pops of colour. Drape it over your mantelpiece, along stair banisters, or even around door frames to instantly lift the festive spirit of your home.
- Christmas Mug Arrangements
Repurpose those extra Christmas mugs by filling them with small arrangements of Christmas flowers like poinsettias or Christmas bush flowers. Place them around your living area, on side tables, or even in the bathroom to spread holiday cheer throughout your home.
- Festive Floral Wreath
Create a quick DIY wreath using a pre-made plain wreath from the store. Adorn it with fresh flowers like red roses, white lilies, and some silver baubles for a traditional yet fresh look. It’s perfect for the front door or as an attractive wall decoration.
- Tabletop Christmas Trees
Make mini Christmas trees by arranging star-shaped flower clusters in a cone shape using floral foam. Flowers like chrysanthemums or any hearty green and red blooms work best for this. These can serve as excellent centrepieces or charming additions to your buffet table.
- Bathroom Blossoms
Don’t forget the smaller spaces. Place small clusters of Christmas flowers in your guest bathroom in festive pots or red and green coloured vases. It’s a small touch that makes every space feel considered and festive.
- Bedroom Flower Swags
Create simple swags of greenery and flowers like gerberas and orchids. Hang them at the corner of your bedroom mirrors or on headboards to bring the Christmas spirit into personal spaces, enhancing the festive feel with elegance.
- Emergency Centrepieces
Take a large glass vase, fill it with baubles, pine cones and a string of battery-operated fairy lights. Place a bouquet of bright-coloured blooms bought from the flower delivery service in South Yarra. This centrepiece is quick to assemble and looks dazzling in any setting.
- Natural Scented Decor
Simmer a pot of water with leftover flower stems, cinnamon sticks, and orange peels to fill your home with a natural festive fragrance. It’s a delightful way to use up trimmings while keeping your home smelling like Christmas.
- Candle Votives Adorned with Petals
Turn ordinary glass votives into festive candle holders by gluing fresh flower petals around the exterior. Choose petals from flowers like roses or geraniums in holiday colors such as red, white, or green. The candlelight will shine through the petals, creating a warm, glowing effect that’s both simple and elegant.
- Festive Floral Napkin Rings
Create custom napkin rings for your dinner table using small sprigs of holly or mistletoe tied with a short length of twine or ribbon. Insert a small bloom, such as a mini carnation or a sprig of baby’s breath, into each bundle for a personal touch that impresses dinner guests and elevates your table setting.
- Floral Christmas Tree Embellishments
Instead of traditional ornaments, decorate your Christmas tree with small vases or tubes filled with water and place individual blooms in them, securing them to branches. Use hardy flowers like chrysanthemums or freesias to ensure they last through the holiday festivities. This floral touch adds an unexpected and stunning visual impact to your Christmas tree.
- Door Frame Florals
Embellish door frames with swags of greenery accented with clusters of small flowers, such as daisies or mini roses. Secure with ribbon in festive colors, draping gracefully over the top of the frame for a welcoming entryway into any room of your house.
- Quick Floral Topiary
Create a quick floral topiary using a foam ball, a pot, and a wooden dowel. Cover the foam ball with tight clusters of small flowers like hydrangeas or button mums. Insert the dowel into the ball and place it into the pot. Cover the base with moss or additional greenery for a sophisticated decor item that looks much more time-consuming than it is.
