Seasons greetings! Floral designer and Unwilted founder Liz Carter sat down with ET to share her vacation occasion must-haves and ideas.
For starters, the flower professional says having her botanical paper flower bouquets on show might help set the jolly temper.
“Unwilted arrangements elevate holiday tables with timeless beauty and effortless elegance. They don’t compete with food or decor, as they’re designed to complement a wide range of table settings. Best of all, there’s no need to worry about them wilting before the last toast. They’re as enduring as your holiday memories,” she famous.
And her practical wanting hand-cut petals and leaves constructed from Italian crepe paper have even been painted, formed and constructed to embrace the Christmas spirit.
“This season will be full of rich, jewel-tones like emerald, ruby, and sapphire paired with metallic gold and bronze. … Combining traditional holiday greens with unexpected pops of blush or deep burgundy will also be on-trend, and expect to see some wicked combinations of pink, burgundy and green,” she spilled.
Along with displaying beautiful centerpieces at your celebration, the entrepreneur likes to offer a snug and relaxed vibe to visitors.
“Creating a welcoming atmosphere is all about simple touches like mood-setting music, cozy lighting, and an easy going approach. For food, opt for a mix of crowd-pleasers and festive treats, and consider a signature cocktail to tie into your theme. To make the evening memorable, encourage fun interactions with themed dress codes, simple games, or a photo corner,” she beneficial.
As for presents, Carter believes significant presents are the best way to go.
“This year, I’m drawn to gifts that bring comfort and inspiration, like cozy blankets, artisanal candles, or blank journals for jotting down that next great idea. Supporting small businesses is also important to me, so I’m seeking out handcrafted items and unique finds from local makers,” she stated.
