The festivity of the holidays continues – white florals, silver and gold accents, holiday colors still brighten our designs. White flowers represent purity, innocence, and new beginnings.

Bouquets and designs that embody the beauty of winter are also a great choice – evergreens, berries, and frosted pinecones add all the charm of a snowy winter evening.

Calla lilies signify renewal, and a chance to reset. The blank calendar stretching out before us, full of opportunity, gives everyone a chance to improve their lives in ways big and small.

The New Year’s Resolution is actually a tradition dating back to ancient times, Diverse cultures promised the gods they would strive to achieve certain goals – increase their chivalry, returned borrowed objects, or pay their debts, for instance. In modern times, resolutions generally reflect some degree of personal improvement. And although it is estimated that only about 10% of people actually follow through with their resolutions successfully, it remains a popular tradition.
