<h1 dir="ltr">Gorgeous autumn flowers</h1>
<a href="https://anthemionflowers.com/attica_en/peristaseis.html?seasons=5685">Autumn</a> is a time of rich colors. Everywhere dominates the intense orange, the red or golden shades. Fallen leaves dominate by giving their tone to the color palette of the landscape. Warm colors and blooming flowers can particularly satisfy our senses at this time of year.
Many varieties of annual or perennial plants bloom at this time, enhancing our garden environment. Blooming flowers with intense blue or purple colors can be combined with blooming white, yellow and brown flowers creating a beautiful contrast.
Autumn is the right time to plant tulips, daffodils and other bulbs, but of course do not forget to plant the amazing winter pansies for additional shades.
Pansies will give your garden color from mid-December through January and will continue to have flowers when the spring arrives. Wonderfully versatile and heavy blooming, pansies are perhaps the perfect fall flower. Plant pansy in the fall and in many areas, they come back to bloom again in the spring.
Below are the most popular types of plants you should have in your garden if you are looking to have some autumn-blooming flowers:
1. Dahlias shine during autumn since they are in their element during this season. These multi-layered flowers come in a variety of stunning colors. To enjoy the sight of these flowers during autumn, new dahlia tubers should be planted in August. In February, dead flowers should be removed so that they will bloom well throughout autumn. Dahlias thrive best in wet and dry tropical areas.
2. Alyssums known as the “carpet of snow”. &nbsp;Grow for its beautiful fragrance, sweet alyssum creeps along the ground creating a carpet of color in the fall. Or use it in containers to spill over the edges like a waterfall. Either way, the effect in enchanting! Sweet alyssum tolerates cool weather well, and can bloom all fall and winter long in mild areas.
3. <a href="https://anthemionflowers.com/attica_en/blog/post/louloudi-minas-gennisis">Marigolds</a> come in rich yellow, cream, lemon, gold, orange, and reddish-brown colors, creating the ideal flowers to brighten any garden. The two most popular varieties of marigold are French and African. French marigolds are smaller and have small flowers as well. The African variety, on the other hand, is taller and produces large flowers. They are very easy to grow and can be planted almost anywhere and all year round, particularly in the warm areas.
4. <a href="https://anthemionflowers.com/attica_en/blog/post/Flower-Varieties">Celosia</a> provides bright yellow, orange, red, and deep burgundy purple accents to your container gardens.
5. Purple fountain grass even it is not a flower, is the ideal accent for other fall flowers. Its burgundy-purple foliage pairs perfectly with other colors.
6. Croton is ideal for autumn season. A houseplant in cold-weather regions (or a shrub in frost-free areas), it also grows well as an annual. Enjoy its fancy foliage in rich shades of red, orange, yellow, and purple. Look for different varieties to find the perfect croton for your fall plantings.
7. Flowering Kale, also known as flowering cabbage, this is one of the toughest plants for fall. It holds up well to frosty temperatures and looks good all winter long in mild-winter areas! Kale offers great color and texture and pairs well with just about every fall flower.
8. Aster is a beautiful fall perennial in many regions, but it’s an outstanding annual, too. Flowering in shades of purple, pink, white, and blue, aster is one of the best plants to feed hungry bees and butterflies in autumn.
9. Dianthus offers beautiful flowers and wonderful fragrances. Be sure to plant dianthus where you can enjoy their great scent! You’ll find dianthus in a range of colors, from white and pink to red and purple, so there’s sure to be an ideal variety for your look. &nbsp;
10. Calendula may remain blooming throughout the winter, adding golden-yellow touches to the garden.
Let's talk about some of the most beautiful autumn flowers that can beautify our balconies and make our garden look like a little paradise.
Chrysanthemum
Its name means the flower of gold, and is in its glories mainly in October. Because of their popularity, you can find these fall flowers in a wide variety of sizes. Look for dainty mini-mums in tiny 2-inch-wide pots or giants that can grow about 1 meter across. &nbsp;Its origin is said to be from the Far East, China and Japan. The Dutch first brought it to Europe where it has been cultivated for many years, while in Greece there is rarely a garden or balcony without chrysanthemum.
Camellia
Camellia is a wonderful evergreen shrub plant, with glossy green-green foliage. Like gardenia, azalea and rhododendron, camellia is a calcareous plant, it requires acidic soil rather than alkaline.
It is preferable to let the soil dry between the watering.
Hibiscus
Your balcony is empty if you do not have at least one hibiscus. The exact country of origin of Hibiscus has not been identified, probably China, and hence the fact that it is also known as the "Chinese pomegranate." Originating from the Far East or not, hibiscus is a wonderful plant that thrives both on the soil and the flower pot - ideal for garden and balcony. A properly developed hibiscus, it needs a lot of water. Use your fingers to check the soil moisture and water just when the ground is dry.
Anemones
There are many different species of anemones but the ones that offer beautiful color through autumn are the Japanese types. You can find single or semi-double varieties and when it comes to growing them, they seem to do best in a good garden soil with a shaded or part-shaded position. Once they’ve made themselves at home they will readily spread.
Autumn is the right time to take care of your perennial and annual plants or plant new ones. Plant them as early as possible in autumn so you can have enough time for your plants to develop new roots before freezing conditions of winter.
Care tips
Remove the old flowers to keep your annual and perennial plants blooming until the first frosts. Do not fertilize this time of the year to avoid the forced growth of new plants.
With the right gardening plan, you can have a home surrounded by attractive, colorful, and vibrant flowers all year round. Even during winter, you can have a gorgeous and lively looking balcony or garden as long as you order at www.anthemionflowers.com the perfect plants that bloom during autumn.

Orchid, an elegant flower

It's time to talk about the beautiful peony flower. This unparalleled natural beauty can shine in your vase or garden. It can also decorate the church on your <a href="https://anthemionflowers.com/attica_el/peristaseis/epeteios.html">wedding day</a> or make up your bridal bouquet. Choose it alone or combine with other flowers such as tulips, irises and roses.
The peony is a leaflet shrub, with a basic flowering period in the months of April to June. As a plant it is charismatic. Its height in the conditions of our country ranges are from 50-60 cm up to 1.5 meters. Its leaves are hard, shiny and large, in bright green. The flowers of the plant are also impressive in size, with a diameter of up to 10 centimeters.
The colors and shapes of peony vary. There are more than 1000 varieties available in many shapes and colors, with single or double petals. A great range of colors is offered by the seductive peony, such as pale yellow, classic white, romantic pink or striking dark red. But its aroma does not go unnoticed as it is very attractive and beautiful sweet!
The origin of peony
Peony has come to Europe in 1784, but in China and Japan they enjoyed it much earlier. There, peony was cultivated not only for its flowers but also for its roots. According to the Chinese, it can be used to reduce fever and thrombus in the blood.
The ideal climate for the growth and flowering of peony
<a href="https://anthemionflowers.com/attica_en/blog/post/Flower-Varieties">Peonies</a> prefer the climate with a mild cold, because it helps them flowering. They also prefer sunny spots, but they can also survive in semi-dark surroundings. They need protection from frost and cold air in the winter
The right soil is important
Plant your peony in fertile, free-draining soil. Peonies are not generally too fussy about the soil and are quite happy in chalky or clay soils, with neutral pH.
Watering
They need regular irrigation, especially in the summer. In winter time they don’t need much water.
Multiply peony plants
The only way to multiply peony plants is to divide peonies. This might sound complicated, but it’s not. First, you need to use a sharp spade and dig around the peony plant. Be very careful not to damage the roots. Once you have the roots out of the ground look for the crown buds.
Make sure each piece has at least one crown bud. Three visible crown buds is best. Plant the pieces in a location suitable for growing peonies. Set the root so the eyes face upward on top of a mound of soil in the hole, placing the roots just 2 inches below the soil surface. Don’t plant too deep!
The hole to be planted should have at least 45-50 cm depth and 45-50 cm wide. At the bottom of the hole add a layer of some organic material, such as soil compost or manure. Half a cup of a good fertilizer (not chemical) rich in phosphorus, could also be mixed with the first layer. Spread the roots out evenly. Scrub the ground around the roots, fill with new soil until the hole is full, and then water again.
The best season of planting or transplanting peony is early in autumn, but it can also be done in spring. Autumn planting helps plants adapt to the soil early before the winter comes and give you flowers from the very first time.
Notice: If you plant peony in a garden in spring time is likely not to bloom for a couple of years. However, peony trees that will be planted early in spring time can flower in the first year.
Peonies and Ants
Don’t worry if you see ants crawl on the peony buds. They are eating nectar in exchange for attacking bud-eating pests. They are attracted to the sugary droplets on the outside of flower buds or to the honeydew produced by scale insects. Never spray the ants. They’re helping you to bring up peonies to bloom!

Peonies make wonderful cut flowers, lasting more than a week in a vase. For best results, cut long stems in the morning when the buds are still fairly tight. You can wrap freshly cut peony stems in damp paper towel and put them in a plastic bag in the refrigerator until you’re ready to use them. When removing the peonies from the refrigerator give the stems a fresh cut and place them in water.
Peony in the garden or on balcony
Peony has been grown in gardens for 600 years. Indeed, the plant can survive for more than 50 years. For this, before planting, select the spot with care and long-term planning. Notice that peonies do not like frequent transplants. Once they adapt to the place you give them, they will have a chance to stay there for many years.
If planted in the garden, they create low, almost irregular colorful fences or natural partitions. Individually they can be planted in corners or elsewhere in the garden. When peonies are in full development they may reach a diameter of one meter, so it is important to provide them with enough space. You should plant them away from large trees or shrubs because there will be competition in the absorption of nutrients from the soil, with results not being able to give you great quality flowers.
Peony's values and symbols are also the most important ones we meet. Peony is associated with love, happiness and health. For this reason, it is not surprising that peony is often chosen as a basic flower in wedding decorations and wedding bouquets.
If you want a stylish choice to decorate your house, balcony or even to give to your loved ones, peony is our proposal. Find at our site www.anthemionflowers.com the ideal peony gift for any occasion!

Summer blooming plants and flowers

Have you just received a lovely flowers from your loved ones and want to keep them for a long time? Then follow these <a href="https://anthemionflowers.com/attica_en/page/odigos-louloudion">helpful tips</a> and keep your flowers fresh for longer. And don’t forget that cut flowers are living organisms that continue to live inside the vase.
Carefully wash your <a href="https://anthemionflowers.com/attica_en/flowers.html?containers=6215">vase</a> with hot water and a small cap of bleach together with a sponge. Allow the vase to dry naturally upside down rather than using a towel to make sure there will be no bacteria when placing the water and flowers in the vase.
Tap water is the most suitable water for cut fresh flowers. Flowers with woody stems such as roses prefer plenty of water, so fill the vase up to about 2/3 with water. Flowers with softer strains, such as tulips, prefer less water then fill the vase just under half. Prefer cold water for the jar. Never hot as it causes damage to flowers. Also avoid lukewarm water, as it has been observed that in some species it can be harmful.
<img src="https://admin.anthemionflowers.com/pub/media/wysiwyg/frodida-louloudion-1_2_.jpg" alt="frontida-water-vase" width="903" height="840">
Add a flower food sachet to your vase of water and make sure it’s fully dissolved with a quick stir. Flower food is a concoction of bleach (bactericide), sugar and a citric acid (acidifier). Bleach eliminates harmful bacteria. Sugar provides flowers with the energy to allow them to blossom. Citric acid balances the PH of tap water, dissolves air bubbles and improves the effectiveness of the bleach. The three ingredients contained in flower food create the perfect environment for cut flowers. Be careful not to overdose. Avoid old wives tales because they often do more harm than good. The reason old wives tales such as adding a penny, vodka, aspirin or lemonade don’t work are because they don’t combine the three key ingredients to make the perfect environment for cut flowers.
If you don’t have a flower food sachet, you can make your own at home to add to your vase: You are going to need:
1 teaspoon of sugar
1 teaspoon of clear unscented bleach
2 teaspoons of lemon/lime juice
Mix these ingredients with a quarter cup of warm water and stir the mixture until fully dissolved.
If you can’t do this, replace your vase water every 24 hours.
Place the stems next to your vase to measure the right height for them to be cut.
<img src="https://admin.anthemionflowers.com/pub/media/wysiwyg/frodida-louloudion-2_2_.jpg" alt="frontida-louloudion-kopsimo" width="929" height="797">
To avoid cloudy water, remove all leaves or foliage that will be below the waterline in the vase. This will prevent bacteria from growing. Clean the vase regularly and add new water every other day to extend the life of the blooms.
Cut about 2 cm from the bottom of the stems before place them into the vase. Cut the bottom of the stem with a sharp knife (not scissors) diagonally to make new openings in the stem's vascular system. Cutting the stems with a sharp tool does not injure the stem and will allow absorbing more water. After you cut your flowers, place them immediately in your jar with water.
<img src="https://admin.anthemionflowers.com/pub/media/wysiwyg/frodida-louloudion-3_2_.jpg" alt="frontida-louloudion-vazo" width="942" height="758">
Place your flowers in a suitable location. Keep your flowers in a cool location away from sources of heat such as household appliances or radiators, direct sunlight and drafts from windows or doors.
Keep your flowers away from any <a href="https://anthemionflowers.com/attica_en/eidos-dorou/kalathia-frouta.html">fruit</a> or vegetables. As they mature releases ethylene gas causing browning and withering on cut flowers.
Try not to neglect your flowers for more than 2-3 days. Be sure to take them out of the jar to change them. Hold your flowers from the stems instead of the heads as the human hands produce heat that will dry your flowers.
Check the quality of your vase water, if it is slightly cloudy, change it for fresh water and repeat the above procedure. No matter how meticulous you have been with your vase, bacteria will still form and attach to the end of your flower stems and discolor your water.
Lastly, make sure your arrangement is clear of radiators, air conditioners, and direct sunlight: these environmental factors can prematurely burn or dry out your handiwork.

Plants for Good Luck

12+1 Plants for Good Luck and Positive Energy

Do you want to decorate your home or business with flowers and plants, but don't have time to give them the care they need? Artificial plants and flowers are a good choice for both home and office.
Indoor plants have entered our lives for good in recent years. Beyond a decorative trend, it is also a way to revitalize the atmosphere of the house, to give life to places that need it and to change your mood thanks to the colors generously offered by plants and flowers.
Give a "green" touch to your space with artificial plants that look like real ones. You can use them as the main source of greenery, or place them in addition to real plants.
Moreover, artificial plants are equally a good choice for office spaces or business spaces. Decorate the office vases with fake plants and colorful artificial flowers, the space will look much friendlier and refreshed with plants that you don't need to keep fresh.
Artificial plants and flowers are still useful as they can be placed in places you wouldn't put real plants. An empty corner or a dark spot are not ideal places to place real plants due to lack of light. In addition, wall shelves or your desk are also places where artificial plants and flowers would be better suited, due to space or weight.
Benefits of artificial plants
Fake plants like real ones are the smartest way to decorate your home, office and balcony. Research has shown that even artificial plants can improve the mood and mental health of people who use these spaces. This alone proves that you can create the ideal atmosphere in your home, office and balcony to improve your psychology, using artificial plants.
When it comes to taking care of natural plants, it is a task that can be time consuming. If you lead a busy lifestyle or suffer from plant-related allergies or perhaps lack the enthusiasm for gardening, artificial plants are the perfect solution for you.
Faux flowers and plants are the perfect alternative, offering the aesthetic benefits of live plants, without the hassle of any maintenance.&nbsp;
If you want to add some greenery to your decor, but don't have the necessary time to water and care for the plants in your home, then artificial plants are a great solution. Plants can give your interior a vibrant and fresh new look and now they look just like the real thing!&nbsp;
You can move your artificial plants to another location without worrying if this will disturb their flowering and health. Many times when we attempt to move a pot, the native plant is affected by the change in sunlight and its new environment. This problem does not exist if you have chosen to decorate your place with artificial flowers and plants.
Many times natural plants can harm a pet or a bird that visits our balcony. Some aromatic and herbaceous plants are toxic to the digestive system of these animals and most of the time we find out when the animal has already been affected by our plant. We recommend artificial plants, so you can be sure that your pets are not at risk of poisoning from a natural plant in your pots. With artificial plants, you don't have to worry about such incidents, whether your pet is curious about the new pot you installed or not.
Fake indoor plants will not be damaged by intense heat, nor will they freeze from freezing temperatures in winter. They are completely durable and allow you to enjoy your winter-summer holidays comfortably, without worrying about leaving the pot on the balcony. You'll also never again have to look for a neighbor to water your pots or build makeshift irrigation systems if no neighbor is willing to serve you.
Another key advantage of artificial plants, especially in the summer season, is that they do not attract insects. Insects and their larvae often find shelter under plant leaves and often feed on them. If you have plants on the balcony that have become a haven for insects, you will have a hard time getting rid of them. You will need to spray with special solutions, clean the plant by hand and sometimes prune the insect-infested area. On the contrary, fake plants stay clear of annoying insects and let you enjoy an evening on the balcony and relax.
Fake plants definitely have a lower purchase cost than real ones and of course they don't cost you extra in the future to maintain them. You will not need to buy soil and pots for transplanting, nor fertilizers and vitamins. You buy fake plants once and you have them forever!
Finally, another key advantage of artificial plants is that you don't have to worry about watering them during your trip. Your artificial plants will be waiting for you to return, maintaining their color and vibrancy even if you are away for several weeks! One less thing to sort out before your trip, therefore.
Useful tips for buying an artificial plant
We have some useful tips for buying an artificial plant. The first thing you should think about is its appearance. An empty plant with few leaves will look less realistic than a full one. As far as colors go, a plastic plant with leaves in different shades of green could really look like the real thing. It's also a good idea to keep color variations in mind when considering flowering plants, since you'll likely want the colors of the flowers to match your decor. Finally, the material is also an important element, as it plays a decisive role in the appearance of the fake plant.
How long will artificial plants last?
Artificial plants placed outdoors may not last as long as those placed indoors (due to weather, rain and UV rays from the sun) and how often the artificial plants are maintained (cleaned, etc.). So be sure to choose artificial plants that have been produced to the best standards and are extremely durable.
Decoration with artificial plants
Artificial indoor plants are a fantastic decoration option for any home. In addition to not needing constant care, they can give a much-desired touch of natural scenery and relax you from the intense everyday life.
Looking for hardy potted plants? You might even start thinking about artificial plants as a solution. Besides, they look like the real thing!
Artificial plants and trees for your home can transform it in ways you can't imagine. That's why we made this article to give you room-by-room decoration ideas with artificial plants and help you change the interior of your home in a smart and affordable way.
So let's see which artificial plants and trees suit every room in your house and how to complement the pleasant atmosphere.
Artificial indoor plants for living room
The living room is the most chic room in the house. Therefore, it needs to be surrounded by plants with a corresponding style. So for your living room we recommend Dracaena and Philodendron, two timeless aesthetic fake plants that will make your living room more beautiful, relaxing and elegant.
The Dracaena is an excellent addition to side tables next to a sofa, while the Leaf Tree can be placed next to the TV cabinet or even in an empty corner of the room, e.g. next to floor lamps, decorative baskets and stone floor figurines.
Artificial potted plants for bathroom
For your bathroom, we suggest a more exotic touch with a strong contrast of green and purple. Dieffenbachia and Calathea leaves are what your bathroom needs, to give you the feeling of showering on some exotic pedestal or under a gurgling waterfall. Complete the experience with aromatherapy and bath salts, allowing yourself to live the ultimate exotic moment in your own home.
Artificial indoor plants for the bedroom
Caladium and amaranth artificial indoor plants are excellent suggestions for bedrooms. Their low height and bright green leaves are uniquely suited to modern minimal white bedrooms, but also bedrooms with warm shades such as salmon, pink and coral. But they could also perfectly frame a more masculine bedroom in shades of gray, blue and ice white.
Artificial plants for the hall
Many times the hall of a house is the most empty and indifferent room. But things don't have to be this way. A Shefflera, a Bucarnea or a Ficus will bring life to your hall with their color and make the entrance to your home more interesting. You can illuminate your artificial plants in the hall with LED lights and make the space even more romantic in the evenings.
Tall artificial plants for balcony
Our house does not end with the rooms. Our balcony is an extension of our home and it deserves to be properly designed. With a Bamboo tree, a Chikas or a Daphne you can have a wonderful balcony that does not require care. In fact, these artificial plants for the balcony will immediately give you the privacy you need, without waiting years for any of the plants in your pots to grow.
To decorate a house or a workplace with artificial plants is clearly a much simpler case, since artificial plants do not need continuous care, nor are they going to acquire damage from their natural environment. You can choose tropical or edible artificial plants without restrictions and get a themed terrace of your liking.
Some ideas for themed decorations are:
Mediterranean&nbsp;
Tropical&nbsp;
Decor with Japanese plants
Classy decoration
Cacti and succulents
Vertical garden
Exotic palm trees in your home
Add a tropical touch to your home with a beautiful artificial palm tree. These trees feature full, lush leaves that give them a very realistic look and feel. They are quite tall, making them a welcome addition to any room!
Of course, you don't need to water a fake plant, but they do need cleaning now and then. You can easily wipe off the dust with a dry cloth and before you know it, the leaves will be back to a bright green color and looking great!
Artificial flowers will offer your space unique elegance and vitality that have nothing to envy in beauty from natural flowers. They are made of excellent materials, which ensures a realistic and beautiful appearance. Add touches of color and vibrancy to the home and office with exquisite artificial flowers. Place them in a beautiful vase or basket and combine them with candlesticks, wall frames or other table decorations
Fake plants can give a completely different dimension to a space, beautifying it and creating a wonderful atmosphere of relaxation. Place artificial plants in small pots on tables or hang them on the walls. Place them next to books, in the bathroom or in bare corners of your home, for a harmonious decorative approach.
Artificial plants give you complete flexibility while at the same time giving you all the experience of having indoor plants in your home.

Fake plants like real ones are the smartest way to decorate your home, office or balcony. Research has shown that even artificial plants can improve the mood and mental health of people who use these spaces.

Artificial Plants for decoration

We believe that choosing the right pot that will suit your plants and enhance the overall aesthetic of your space is important. Remember to choose pots and planters that suit the specific needs of your plants, the environment they will be placed in, and your personal style preferences. Proper care and maintenance will ensure the health and longevity of your plants.
Plant pots are essential elements for gardening and adding greenery to indoor and outdoor spaces.
Here are some information to consider when choosing a pot for your plants:
Sizes and shapes: Discover pots in different sizes and shapes to accommodate different types and sizes of plants. Smaller pots are suitable for herbs and small plants, while larger pots can be used for trees or large flowering plants. Make sure the pot or planter is the right size for your plant's root system and growth potential.
Material: Pots are made from a variety of materials, including plastic, ceramic, terracotta, metal, and even wood. Choose a material that suits the needs of the plant and the climate. For example, terracotta is porous and breathable, while plastic retains moisture well.
Style and Aesthetics: Consider the overall aesthetic of your garden or interior space. Pots and planters come in different colors, shapes and styles to complement different types of decor such as modern, rustic or minimalist elegance etc. Choose a planter that matches the style of your space and adds aesthetics. Pots can be decorative and add elements to the garden or interior space.
Drainage: Proper drainage is vital to plant health. Most pots have drainage holes in the bottom to allow excess water to escape, preventing overwatering and root rot.
Pots without drainage holes: Sometimes pots without drainage holes are preferred for their aesthetic simplicity, although we do not recommend this option for beginners as watering mistakes can be difficult to correct.
Whether you choose to use drainage pots or not, we always recommend using a layer of stones, pebbles, or other solid materials at the base of the pot for proper drainage of your plant. A drainage layer allows the plant's roots to access oxygen, and a lack of drainage can damage your plant.
Self-watering pots: Plants in self-watering pots require careful watering of the soil after they are first planted. This is important because the plant roots must first grow in the pot. Water your plant for two to four weeks before using the tank. During dormant seasons or for plants that have slower growth habits, consider watering for a longer period of time.

We believe that choosing the right pot that will suit your plants and enhance the overall aesthetic of your space is important.

How to choose the pot for your plant

Sweets are an important part of Christmas so you should put ornaments that refer to sweets on your tree for a more playful and modern result.
&nbsp;
Christmas shades
When it comes to Christmas home decoration the first thing you need to do is choose a color scheme. You can use a traditional Christmas red and green color palette or if you want a more modern look, choose silver and gold. Add blue decorations for more intensity in your space and if you want a more elegant Christmas feeling, then the shades of white, like the snow, are the ideal choice.

Windows and curtains
If you have balcony doors, you can hang small wreaths with ornaments and ribbons.
If you have windows, place small trees, various decorations and candles on the windowsill. Show everyone that Christmas has come, even to those who look at your home from the outside.
For the windows, the hanging decorations of all kinds have a timeless value, from red flowers to bright stars and red wreaths, whatever you choose to be sure that you will give incomparable warmth to the space.
Don’t forget to hang socks on your curtains, festive lights or holiday garlands.
&nbsp;
Candles&nbsp;
Candles are a key element of decoration in all seasons. But mainly during the holidays, their flame creates a mystery and warmth. There is nothing more beautiful than candlelight. So put in different corners of your house and on your tables many candles decorated with balls, cinnamon, mistletoe, pinecones and ribbons.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Dinner table
Beautify your holiday dinners with festive Christmas centerpieces with dried fruits, cinnamon sticks, pinecones and candles and fill your home with beautiful scents.
Use Christmas towels or festive napkins in white, red and green on the table.
A beautiful floral arrangement with candles will spruce up the dinner table while at the same time will create a warm atmosphere and mood.
Choose the decorations you like and add some modern and playful notes to the whole house. Holiday balls, ornaments and more beautiful elements will add a festive touch on your table.
&nbsp;

Decorate your yard, balcony or terrace this Christmas and impress friends and neighbors.
First of all, place lights on the railings, around the windows and the door and in the pots with the plants. The result will be magical and festive. Choose lights suitable for outdoor areas. This way you avoid any damage and you are sure of the safety of your home.
Add some of the magic of the holidays by putting Christmas balls and decorations in your pots and immediately your balcony will be transformed into a magnificent landscape.
