Just Add Ice Orchids Make ‘Haunting’ Halloween Display

Blood red, screaming orange and spooky stripes make Just Add Ice Orchids a natural for creative Halloween displays. Surprised? Because of their elegant classic beauty and graceful arch, Just Add Ice Orchids aren’t the first flower that comes to mind when you think about Halloween decorations. Formal living rooms, elegant table settings and wedding centerpieces would seem to be more in tune with the grace and ethereal beauty generally associated with Just Add Ice Orchids. Perhaps it’s time to start thinking outside the box. Phalaenopsis orchids are available in such an amazing array of colors that they can be a versatile and powerful decorating tool in every room in your home – and for every season, including Halloween!

Here are some ideas to jazz up your Halloween displays using Just Add Ice Orchids:

• Place a Just Add Ice Orchid so that the flower stem arches over a ceramic haunted house or collection of ghostly figurines. Tie black thread around lightweight plastic spiders and tie loosely around the orchid stem so spiders hang down over your display. For best effect, use an odd number of spiders and hang them at varying heights above your display. (Tip: Those inexpensive plastic spider rings are the ideal weight; just use scissors to cut off the ring part before hanging.)
• Add yellow Just Add Ice Orchids to a display of pumpkins, gourds and brightly-colored fall leaves. The orchids will add height and contrasting texture to your display. (Tip: Use pumpkins and gourds of different shapes and colors and stack some gourds to increase the visual impact of your display.)
• For a touch of whimsy, use spotted or striped Just Add Ice Orchids in your Halloween displays.
