A Festive Centerpiece For Your Thanksgiving Table

What does the modern Thanksgiving table look like? On this holiday above all others, we embrace tradition. We set a timeless scene with heirloom linens and heritage china. On the other hand, Thanksgiving has been getting a bit of a reboot in the last few years, with holiday hosts mixing in some modern touches. Many people celebrate Friendsgiving, for instance, or have a more casual potluck. Still others are rethinking classic dishes, or having everyone bring a meal item that reflects the traditions of their cultural or ethnic background. What stays the same? The fact that friends and family gather around the table in gratitude, and the flowers at its center. Read More about A Festive Centerpiece For Your Thanksgiving Table »

A Beautiful Fall Tablescape

One of the best parts of Fall entertaining is building a dining tablescape, if we do say so ourselves here at Kittelberger Florist & Gifts. There's nothing quite like the instant immersion into the new season you get when you create a new look for your dining room, changing out linens, candles and decor and reminiscing about seasons past. In the run up to Thanksgiving, you may be called upon to host other dinners, or simply want your table to reflect the spirit of the harvest. A centerpiece is the single most important item you can grace your table with. Everything else in your table decor will follow from the standard it sets. Read on to find our top tablescaping tips.

Harvest A Textured Fall

.single #maincontent .img-featured { object-position: top; } There's virtually nothing like Fall decor, with its layered scents, displays of abundance, and overall cozy feel that we channel via nubby blankets, crackling fires and cider simmering on the stove. This season is all about texture, whether expressed in the lush foliage of a front-door wreath or in a cluster of pumpkins and candles on the mantel. Same goes for our tabletop flowers, which make a bid to all of the senses. Fortunately, Kittelberger Florist & Gifts has a crop of autumnal floral designs to layer into your seasonal decor scheme.

We're thinking the dining one--let the kitchen table have its pumpkins, skulls and ghosties. Read More about Halloween Flowers That Are Anything But Creepy »

Show Your Appreciation This Bosses Day

Kittelberger Florist & Gifts is here with a PSA (thank us later). October 16 is National Bosses Day, so designated in the 1960s after a plucky employee wanted an official occasion to honor her boss, who also happened to be her dad. Cut to today, when we're called upon to acknowledge the efforts of our guides and mentors, those leaders who spend their workday keeping the team on task and together. Offering this pivotal person in our lives a little something special does a lot to create good work karma. Read More about Show Your Appreciation This Bosses Day »

Random Acts Of Flowers

Kittelberger Florist & Gifts is always looking for ways to get flowers into the hands of as many people as possible, that's why we do what we do. And usually, that's enough to satisfy our desire to see people exchanging bouquets of roses or gifting their loved ones, co-workers, friends and themselves with that gorgeous orchid or a fresh bunch of tulips. Other times, however, we just want to get out and do something about it. And last November, we did. Read More about Random Acts Of Flowers »
