The trend for fall and winter leans toward arrangements that are stately and symmetrical. Design elements will include stone, marble, treated wood, heavy branches, feathers, shells, horns, pods, cones, mosses, lichens, pen and ink drawings, white ribbon and pillar candles.

Containers will include oversized baskets of coarse weave, smooth glazed ceramics, oversized glass vases, thick raw wool knits and decorative patterns inspired by sculpture.

Treatments will include bouquets collared with folded leaves, white-painted foliages and branches used as accents, flower stems decorated with white ribbons and bows, arrangements collared with twigs and feathers supporting a single pillar candle, massed carnations and arrangements sheltered with crisscrossed grasses.

Flowers will play a large role in people’s emotions during this fall and winter season. More than just making people feel happy, flowers add new life to the home surroundings, the feeling that “everything’s OK”.

Watch for our weekly updates on trends this fall and winter seasonas we feature demonstations for autumn, Halloween, Thanksgiving, winter entrertaining and Christmas.
