And, since florists who responded to a recent Society of American Florists (SAF) survey chimed in to say that 27% of them had higher Thanksgiving sales in 2005 than they did in 2004, you're bound to see an even greater offering of autumn beauty than you did last year. Thanksgiving has been celebrated since it was first proclaimed by George Washington on November 26, 1789, then named a national holiday to be celebrated the last Thursday of every November by Abraham Lincoln in 1879. Though widely believed to be an exclusively American holiday, Thanksgiving is also celebrated by Canadians, but there it is celebrated on the second Monday of October. Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks and the first Thanksgiving was meant as a way to celebrate the great bounty of gifts given to us by the land. Since flowers are certainly a product of the land, it makes perfect sense to include them in our holiday celebrations. Flowers can be used in a wide variety of ways to make your Thanksgiving holiday look more beautiful than a freshly roasted, delicious, juicy turkey. Some ways you can use fall-themed flowers to enhance your holiday decorations are: * Place a long, narrow centerpiece on a large table with some smaller pieces to the sides of the arrangement. You may use smaller flower arrangements, fall gourds, or candles to accent the centerpiece. * Bring a family heirloom, such as a vase or bowl, to your florist and ask him or her to create an arrangement in it. Or, use a seasonal piece like a cornucopia. * For a special fall touch, ask your florist to use fruits and vegetables in your floral arrangement. * Use fall flowers, greens, and leaves to garnish serving trays. * Drape your doorway with a garland of fall flowers, fruits, and foliage. * Scatter autumn leaves or the petals from fall-colored flowers along the center of your table. Place votive candles among them. * Place a single stem at each place setting to welcome your guests. There are so many flowers available in the rich, warm colors of fall. You might consider using chrysanthemums, gerbera daisies, roses, carnations, lilies, and marigolds in arrangements. Fall accents include leaves, wheat, fruits, vegetables, and dried corncobs. Your florist is certain to have many other beautiful products that will be perfect for your Thanksgiving celebration. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Wesley Berry is member of the American Academy of Floriculture (AAF) and President of Wesley Berry Flowers (http://www.wesleyberryflowers.com), a successful multi-million dollar floral business that was established in 1946.
