Seasonal citrus and flower bouquets



The girls at Studio Choo do such beautiful work. Remember the gorgeous picnic bouquet they did this summer, shown here? Well, they're back on Design*Sponge with another perfect menagerie of arrangements, this time using more winter-y materials (well, winter-y by California standards at least).

Here are a few ways they used seasonal, locally grown flowers and produce:

I love how these pretty little kumquats (which are in season right now) are tucked into "nest" of rosemary - can you imagine how fragrant this must be? It would be lovely as a centerpiece for a dinner party, or even just in your kitchen to liven things up and bring in some amazing scents.


This arrangement, as well as the one pictured at the top, are my favorites. A combination of
ranunculus and rosemary, along with the fresh pop of orange from the kumquats, make this bud-vase bouquet colorful, fresh, beautiful and not too stuffy.

As soon as the Studio Choo shop opens in San Francisco, I'm sending my friend Lauren (who lives in SF) over there to investigate and take pictures so I can see it vicariously through her!
