New Year’s Eve is nearly here – with the parties, the resolutions, and all of the anticipation of a fresh start. With the blank calendar offering a whole year full of opportunity, it’s time to reflect on the year gone by, and plan for 2017! Whether you are headed to a New Year’s party or are the hostess, flowers help to make the celebration more meaningful and beautiful. The floral designers at Breen’s Florist have created arrangements and bouquets that deliver the joy and hope of New Year’s Eve.

You may not realize this, but there are actually flowers that embody the spirit of the New Year. 

White flowers are representative of new beginnings, which is why they are often used for weddings. But they also are perfect to celebrate the revealing of a new calendar year. Calla lilies are also symbolic of renewal and rebirth, and as such are the perfect adornment for your New Year’s party table.

Did You Know? New Year’s resolutions date back to ancient cultures. Thousands of years ago, people groups made promises to the gods at regular intervals in order to appease them; the commitments generally included returning stolen items and repaying debt. Throughout the ages, the practice of making resolutions has continued in various ways. In modern times, the most common resolutions involve self-improvement and personal growth.

Of course, on New Year’s Eve we love festivity and joyous celebration. If your hostess is throwing a formal celebration, we recommend bringing these beautiful amaryllis flowers, arranged in decorative copper bowls and embellished with copper cedar. These elegant arrangements exude happiness and excitement for the coming year.

Make 2017 the best year yet! Resolve to fill your life – and the lives of your loved ones – with flowers. Breen’s Florist is your premier source in Houston, delivering bouquets and arrangements that will make every occasion more memorable.
