Step away from the mums. Today I'm sharing some simple ways to elevate your seasonal floral arrangements.
I get it. I felt the same little thrill rush over me the first time I spotted that annual display of chrysanthemums at my local nursery. I think I wait all year for that sighting because I know what it means. Fall in all of it's colorful glory is finally upon us.
But as much as I love to see neighborhood doorsteps dressed with pots overflowing, I always find myself going to the dark side, seeking out more dramatic vase fillers.
Before I share some advice, let me plead my case with some examples of alternative fall flora.
You may think it's all about the foliage and you're half right. I never met auburn leaf I didn't like. But there are other elements in these designs I gravitate to- especially this time of year.
Here are a few subtle tweaks that will turn your vase full of flowers into a seasonal show stopper.
