Hanukkah is just around the corner, and it’s time to get into the holiday spirit with some beautiful floral decorations and your Toms River florist. Flowers are not only impressive, but they provide a uniquely natural touch to your home, while also providing that same festive environment you were hoping for.

For more information on how you can easily decorate your home or business for the Hanukkah holiday, contact your local Toms River florist to discuss your decoration needs.

If you’re thinking about bringing a bit of nature into your home this holiday season – floral arrangements are a breathtaking and impressive way to decorate your home as guests and family members come to visit. While candles are the most traditional decorative option for the holiday, flowers can provide a good complement to these.

We have a couple of great suggestions to decorate your home for Hanukkah. Check out different color flowers and ideas of what you can do with them to decorate.

Traditionally, White Flowers are Used

The traditional Hanukkah flower colors white, with a combination of either a brilliant blue or natural greens. Some examples of good Hanukkah white flowers to use are white orchids, football mums, white tulips or even roses.

You don’t have to just decorate with the flowers themselves. Consider putting them in a festive vase, or pairing them with ornaments and other decorations in a styled arrangement to make the group of flowers feel special. Contact your local Toms River florist for more ideas on what white flowers to use for the holiday.

Blue is the Unofficial Color of Hanukkah

The colors blue and silver are well known to be associated with the holiday of Hanukkah. Families that celebrate this holiday often hang blue and white lights and decorations throughout their home around the holiday.

White flowers are more traditional, and are a great addition to the blue and silver decorations. Not to mention the fact that the combination ends up looking beautiful, and it’s an easy color and combination to find in nature.

If you’re in a multi-cultural family where multiple holidays are celebrated, incorporating blue and white flowers is a good way to overlap the holidays of Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa.

Create a Beautiful Centerpiece

When celebrating Hanukkah, families will often sit down for a big dinner, or host large celebrations around a table where time can be spent with one another. In order to decorate the table, consider using a centerpiece made of fresh cut flowers.

This will not only help make the dinner table look more complete but will act as a conversation piece. You can use white lilies, delphinium or orchids as just a few possibilities to achieve the color combination you want. A Toms River florist will be able to help you create the most beautiful centerpiece for your table.

Put a variety of Arrangements Scattered Throughout Your Home

Don’t just focus on the center of attention. Families usually like the holidays to permeate throughout their homes, and spreading out different flower arrangements as decorations will help to bring the festive environment to all corners of your home or business.

The entrance of your home is a very popular place to decorate with flowers. If you have family coming to stay, consider putting some festive arrangements in the guest areas to complement their stay.

Consider Flowers as Gifts

Often hosts will offer their guests small tokens of thanks in the evenings. White roses in either a single gift or a bunch can make a beautiful and simple parting gift.

Often seen as treasures, the white rose communications respect and honor as well and love and hope for the future. These messages coincide well with families who might be parting ways once Hanukkah is over.
