What Is a Novelty Flower Arrangement?

Novelty flower arrangements are not traditional flower arrangements. Instead, these arrangements are made with flowers, candy, chocolates, fruits or other materials. In the novelty arrangements, flowers can be shaped to fit the theme of the party -- snowmen for a holiday party, bunnies for an Easter centerpiece. They are eye-catching arrangements that make gift giving and events more festive and personalized.
  1. Uses

    • Novelty flower arrangements can be used to replace traditional arrangements used in any type of occasion, such as weddings, birthday parties, bachelorette parties, or family get-togethers. The arrangements can also be used alongside more traditional arrangements. For example, Christmas parties could be decorated with an arrangement of flowered snowmen, and a kid's summer birthday could feature floral soda fountain drink arrangements.

    Types

    • There are many types of novelty flower arrangements available. In addition to those focusing on a specific party theme, you can find arrangements that are made out of fruit and chocolate that can be specially made for a loved one, such as for your mother on Mother's Day. You can get any combination that interests you, such as one that mixes flower and candy together. Another way to create a novelty arrangement is to pt a traditional flower arrangement in a novelty vase.

    Purchasing

    • There are many vendors of novelty flower arrangements, such as Send Flowers Across America. They offer traditional types of arrangements and novelty arrangements.
