Way back in 2010 I wrote a post about my new-found love and appreciation for carnations. I remember when we first go married I use to tell the hubby that if he ever sent me flowers to make sure there were not carnations in the arrangement. Back then I thought carnations had no style. Times have changed and these days carnations are a power flower not only for arrangements but as decor too!
Design Tip: Because carnations are inexpensive and can last for a long time outside of water, they are the ideal flower for creating a fun party garland to like this. Drape the garland from the back of a chair or hang it over a buffet or dessert table. The power of flowers!

I developed some love for them too over the years. Love the garland idea!

Hi Michelle,
I don’t know if you have a Publix market in your area but I recently discovered they sell large bunches of carnations 3 for $12. It’s a great deal and I love how long they last.
Have a great weekend.
