Flowers are a must for a buffet or dining table--which may accommodate as few as two or as many as dozens of guests at once. Try these simple but artful ideas for displaying your favorite blooms to their peak seasonal advantage.
This October, we will be entertaining about sixty family members in our home for a Halloween buffet. Everyone's very excited and it will be a lot of fun. I have already started decorating for fall and Halloween, inside and outdoors. Also bought a new bingo game called...TEAGO...you can find it on the internet.
* FALL *
Transform a pumpkin, either miniature or full size, into a colorful "vase" for fresh flowers. Simply fit a glass or plastic container inside a clean, hollow pumpkin and place the bouquet inside, with stems trimmed to fit. Water-drenched floral foam in the bottom of the plastic or glass container will provide additional anchorage and keep the arrangement fresh longer.
Consider supplementing a fall arrangement with other seasonal elements, such as whole fruits, pinecones, preserved leaves, and dried flowers.
Happy decorating!
