A beautiful arrangement of flowers is always a big hit on Mother’s Day. Here are a few current design trends that will help you create gorgeous arrangements that any mom would absolutely love:

When it Comes to Color, Less is More

Rather than creating an arrangement with a rainbow of bold or contrasting colors, consider a mix of tones and textures in your Mother’s Day floral designs. Shades of white, pink, lavender, green, and yellow, to name a few, create an elegant, stunning display.

Use Interesting, Unique Containers

Bottles, jars or glassware make gorgeous floral containers. Crystal or cut glass is especially beautiful, either as one arrangement or a series of individual flowers in different sized glasses. Cups are also a great way to showcase the stems and create a modern, tall arrangement.

Unusual Materials Add a Natural Touch

These days, natural garden-style arrangements are everywhere. Add creativity to your mix of materials to include interesting branches, fragrant herbs, or greenery for texture and movement.

Add Luxury to Arrangements

If your customers want something extra-special for their mothers, add a touch of luxe with fine ribbon, or splurge on a super-showy specialty flower to punctuate the arrangement.

Have Fun and Try New Things

There are so many designs to choose from, but each arrangement can be different and special. Loose, “just picked” looks are still on trend and the natural beauty of organic forms allows for imperfections. Conversely, you can take one flower and use it in mass—tulips, peonies, and hydrangeas are perfect for this. No matter what you do, have fun, and think about the smiles you’ll be giving to moms everywhere!
