Have a Heavy Metal Christmas! Floral Creations with Metallic Accents from Schneider's Florist

Not this kind of heavy metal Christmas

No fog machines, strobe lights, or screaming guitars. We're talking Christmas Flowers! Today I'm going to show you a few ways to add a metallic touch to your holiday decor. I like to add silver, gold, and copper accents to flowers all year round, but Christmas is the perfect season to add a little sparkle to your celebration.

A Christmas Dozen in Springfield, Ohio

How about a holiday version of a dozen red roses? Our Christmas Dozen takes center stage with twelve premium red Freedom roses in a ruby red vase with evergreens and warm gold seeded eucalyptus.

Silver Elegance Centerpiece in Springfield, Ohio

The Silver Elegance Centerpiece deserves to be in the spotlight. A breathtaking combination of snow white lilies, hydrangea, roses, and carnations with silver leaves and silver taper candles. This centerpiece is a showstopper!

Whimsical Wonderland

Over The Hills and Far Away lies a Whimsical Wonderland. This is like our Traditional Boxwood tree with a Space Mountain twist. Copper ornaments and a swirl of mixed metallic wire make a captivating spectacle for your audience.

I can't come up with any more rock and roll puns. If you haven't stopped in the shop for a visit now is the perfect time. We have free 2017 calendars available now. They're extremely popular and we run out fast, so don't wait!

I have about 10,000 more things I could write about for December. Thanks for reading. See you next week! 

Have a Blue, Blue, Blue, Blue Christmas with Schneider's Florist

For years now, it's been a fantasy of mine to decorate my house with a "Blue Christmas" theme. I always imagined a big tree, loaded with blue lights and ornaments, gifts wrapped in blue paper, Elvis and Old Blue Eyes on the record player. Well, my cats knock over my tree every year and I don't have a record player. I finally accepted reality. Now I have a really small silver tree that sits on a table and I do a different theme every time. A few rolls of gift wrap an one box of miniature ornaments later, and Blue Christmas is live at my house! 

Want to celebrate Blue Christmas with me? I have a lot of beautiful, wintry, designs to share with you today. Browse our entire collection of Winter Flowers, Christmas Flowers, and Hanukkah Flowers.

Luxurious Winter Flowers From Schneider's Florist

If you're like me, there are people in your life that seem to have everything. What do you give them for the holidays? It sounds counter intuitive, but flowers are a great way to send a really nice gift to someone you love without cluttering up their life with another thing that they have to keep forever. With that in mind, I'm sharing a few of our most interesting winter creations for your fancy friends that don't need anything. 

Frosted

White roses, orchids, willow branches, with evergreens and holiday accents. Frosted brings elegance and high design into the home.

Holiday Spirit

An arrangement for winter romance. Holiday Spirit has an unexpected color palate for the season. I like the combination of seeded eucalyptus and evergreen foliage.

Whimsical Wonderland

Mixed metallic colors have been a very popular look this year. Silver, gold, and copper wire with white roses and button mums for a modern twist on the traditional Christmas tree shape. Order Whimsical Wonderland for delivery in Springfield.

I'm excited to be posting on the first of the month this time because there's so much more to see before Christmas gets here. Follow us on Twitter for updates and fun photos I don't post anywhere else.
