Flowers for decor: A touch of oriental in your home...



Finally tomorrow is Chinese New Year !!!
Actually I want to do some serious decorating this year but have to postpone it because of the severe flu ...sigh... well in the meantime I'll be satisfied with this few oriental decor which involves... flowers of course...


Eventhough houses nowadays are usually built in modern or minimalist style (at least in Indonesia) and can be looked rather weird when oriental touch was added such as lampion or other chinese ornament. Actually some flowers can enhance the oriental feeling without making it tacky.


Such as peony, this flower actually comes in lots of shades, from pale pink to fuschia...


Look, how pretty the flower is painted on the teapot...


And one flower that definitely looks oriental... lotus!! Yes, just simple lotus in a glass will add a touch of oriental in your home...

Introducing New Products

Here it is one of our new products for the Lunar New Year!

For any 'Imlek' decor, cherry blossom is almost mandatory.If we are sightseeing in a mall or enter a store that sells Chinese New Year decorations, we usually find arrangements of cherry blossoms mixed with twigs so as to form a tree then some small Chinese ornaments such as 'hung pau' or red envelope hung here and there. It's quite standard decor, right? Even lots of Chinese decorate their homes with decoration like this. So we try to make something different that people haven't had yet. Something that a little bit unique. And because this year is the year of the dragon, and as you know that dragon represents the empire and gold is the color of the emperor, then our theme for flower arrangements for this event is something (that is) elegant, golden or yellow color. So, this year we use yellow Cherry blossoms (Last year we made centerpiece in pink). The design itself is somewhat rather unusual. Three leaves folded to create small opening where some lotus tubers seen peeping. Some grass and spinach-like leaves with white streaks were used to cover the oasis. Gold colored ribbon and a nice card completed the floral arrangement. And if the party is over, just take out the card and you can put it on the living room for decoration.

Wishing you all a Happy and prosperous Lunar New Year 2563
