Add a little zest to your next party with citrus filled centerpieces. Oranges, lemons and limes all combine beautifully with flowers. Slice them up thin and just tuck them inside a clear vase. Does it hurt the flowers? No! Flora2000 knows the professional techniques to create beautiful arrangements of fruits and flowers.
The autumn season has arrived. Walking, I hear the crunch of autumn leaves underfoot and feel a crisp chill in the air. The transition of hot summer days to the cold winter season is a delight to the senses. The gardens and orchards are filled with a bounty of flowers, fruits and vegetables are ready for harvest. Bring the essence of the season inside with an autumn inspired centerpiece – complete with apples from the orchard!
Add a fresh touch to your wardrobe with flower jewelry. No, not the big and clumsy corsage you remember from high school. Flower jewelry is like a favorite broach or necklace that just “makes” your outfit. Next time you have a special event, stop by Flora2000 and let them create your own personalized floral accessory. You are sure to be the “belle of the ball”.
Who amongst us is not familiar with the frenzy of finding a gift that is ‘just right’, for a wedding or birthday or for Christmas? We all yearn for a gift that will make the occasion extra special for our beloved one.
Envisage delectable cakes, chocolates and cookies, dressed in red and white with ribbons and tinsel woven around it – doesn’t it sound like just the thing to spread the Yuletide cheer. And what better way to say, “Get Well Soon!” than with a wicker basket overflowing with luscious, ripe fruits! At Flora2000, these hampers are especially designed to touch the right chords. When combined with our unique floral arrangements, these hampers make truly breathtaking gifts!
Our hampers are characterized by a mix of exotic culinary feats and gourmet delights reigning alongside boutique chocolates or stuffed toys. All of these are bundled in quaint baskets or boxes, and when gifted lovingly along with an intricate arrangement of gorgeous blooms, they create a souvenir appropriate for any occasion and a complete gift for every individual.
Flowers to eat? Oh, yes! I absolutely love the growing trend of organic and edible flowers in the market place. It is getting easier than ever to add a bit of color (and spice) to your dinner table. You are sure to find organic flowers that are edible as well as beautiful. Nasturtiums, cornflower, marigolds and roses are just a few. Sprinkle them on a salad or add a decorative accent to your dessert – best of all, they don’t add a lot of calories!
A birthday celebration without the calories! Yes, flower cupcakes to mark your special day. Buy one; buy a dozen… get enough to share. And, best of all, there are no worries of weight gain from these cupcakes. In fact, they’ll put a smile on your face and cause you to laugh. And we all know that laughter burns calories and is good for our health. My goodness, who knew a birthday, could be such fun, guilt free and healthy, too!
The summer garden is filled with fabulous flowers. I fantasize of gathering armloads of scabiosa, lavender, sea holly and bachelor buttons. Alas! I have no garden in the city. Thank goodness Flora2000 has fabulous garden flowers to share; lavender, purple and blue – all my favorites in a casual summertime bouquet. Best of all, I don’t have to weed and water the garden to enjoy the bountiful harvest.
It’s white clothing season! That goes for flowers too. Nothing looks cleaner, crisper or more summery than summer white flowers set in a bright kiwi green cube. Dress it up by adding a little pineapple mint foliage – love it! It looks great, smells wonderful and the cooling colors will quickly lower the temperature… even if it’s just in your mind.
Grandma’s exquisite pearl necklace. Mom’s lovely wedding dress. An ancestral, solid gold timepiece. These treasures are priceless, both in vintage value and in the memories they inspire. Flora2000’s David Beahm New York collection combines contemporary floral designs with timeless containers from the world renowned design houses of Waterford, Mark Blackwell and Jonathan Adler to create gifts that shall last a lifetime.
Whether it’s on a Madison Avenue window-sill or at posh, Los Angeles soiree, designer Marc Blackwell always brings his unique sensibility to everything he touches. Now, his chic, gleaming gold pieces adorn David’s floral creations. ‘Lyle’ – David’s tour de force, is arranged in a 24 carat gold cow creamer!
Waterford is a renowned name in some of the world’s most prestigious homes and buildings, spanning Westminster Abbey and Australia’s Houses of Parliament. Its classic Lismore pattern vase gushes with ‘Eva’, a lively bouquet of David’s favorite roses. With its time-honored tradition of quality and beauty, Waterford perfectly complements David’s floral labors of love.
Jonathan Adler’s stunning creations adorn the homes of America’s upper crust. He has designed breathtaking, contemporary pottery, home furniture, tabletop accessories and more. For Flora2000, Jonathan Adler has conceptualized unique flower holders, each a work of art in its own right. His snazzy, oblique vase plays host to graceful, miniature calla lilies in David’s ‘Mari’.
Flora2000’s DBNY collection is a seamless blend of vintage elegance and cutting-edge fashion. Going beyond floral displays, these design luminaries have collaborated to fashion timeless classics which can be cherished for generations to come.
Texture and form are one of the hottest trends of the moment. Reminiscent of your grandma’s days, gnarled woods, knobby woolens, sandy walls, course furs and even shag carpet are taking over the design world. Orbs, cubes and dramatic shapes are everywhere. Capture the trends in your floral accents with sisal and artichokes. Sisal is a natural material available in a rainbow of colors. The forest green and deep purple colors combine fabulously with artichokes, sedum and oregano.
