With Christmas very swiftly approaching, we've gathered together a stunning selection box of bang up-to-date festive floral designs to share with you, all of which have been beautifully crafted by florists for the 2014 season!
Via Instagram, we'll look at some of the trends that are appearing in shops, hotels, homes and on lots of front doors throughout London. They include Au Naturel, Heartwarming Nostalgia, Snow White and Dazzling Metallic. Ready?!
Au Naturel
The natural look is proving to be very popular, with all-foliage designs in abundance. Whether pared back or enhanced with cones, fragrant cinnamon, twigs, fruit or even feathers, this pure botanical style is a sure winner.
Heartwarming Nostalgia
Harking back to Christmases past, the traditional look, sometimes with a modern twist, is very much in prevalence. Think predominantly red and green and you can't go far wrong.
Snow White
A true cert to make an appearance at Christmas is an all-white arrangement, or two. Such a classic style, but also oh, so contemporary.
Dazzling Metallic
Silver, gold and copper are also adding a sprinkle of festive sparkle to designs this season. These shiny colours bring a real sense of glamour and sophistication to arrangements!
