13 Glamorous Christmas Decor Ideas With Poinsettias

Discover all the possibilities that the Poinsettia offers you. This Christmas plant can become a beautiful centerpiece or an original Christmas tree.

1- CENTERPIECE WITH A YELLOW POINSETTIA

To decorate the table, you can create a nice and elegant centerpiece. Choose the color of the Christmas flower that best suits your decoration.

2- A CHRISTMAS POT WITH YELLOW POISETTIAS

Use the Poinsettia as a base to make a cut flower bouquet. To extend its life, a good trick is to seal the cut stems by placing them for a few seconds over the flame of a candle.

You will find Poinsettias in many colors, which you can combine with Christmas balls and dry branches. A trick that adds elegance: paint the dry branches gold… you will make the poinsettia shine.

The Poinsettia, also known as Easter Flower or Christmas Eve Flower, owes these qualifiers to the coincidence of the peak of its flowering with the time in which the Christmas holidays are celebrated.

This plant that belongs to the euphorbia family is native to Mexico; In fact, it did not leave this country until about 200 years ago, when the first American ambassador stationed in the Aztec territory, Joel Poinsset, decided to send some of the most beautiful species to Philadelphia, so that they could carry out a complete study there. They adopted his name from the ambassador and began their expansion throughout the world.

The poinsettia pot has been decorated with some chilli peppers. The contrast of colors could not be more Christmas.

This winter plant is usually green leaves and red flowers, but there is an increasing range of colors and shapes that offer multiple possibilities to decorate the house. You can choose the color and shape depending on where you are going to place it. There are white, pink, yellow or salmon colored Poinsettias.

In some countries this plant is known as the Christmas Star, and the arrival of the poinsettia to any home means that the holidays are already at hand. To make it last longer, make sure that it gets plenty of light, that the room is at a moderate temperature, avoid sudden changes in temperature and, above all, make sure it does not suffer from drafts. They will live longer than you imagine. After the holidays incorporate them into your garden, they hold up well outside (in areas where there are no frosts).

If you are bored with the typical Christmas fir trees, go ahead and transform a Poinsettia into a different and unique Christmas tree. Just cover an old garden basket with thin turquoise paper. To make your flower stand out more, choose the Amazon variety poinsettia, which has a tall stem and many leaves. Cover the base of the plant with a plastic bag and place it in the new pot. To make it perfect, you have to take care of all the details, so cover the soil with moss and decorate the pot with some pinecones painted in gold and small gift packages. You can add whatever comes to your mind; sure you will amaze everyone.

9- THE ELEGANCE OF THE PINK POISETTIA

A great idea to celebrate Christmas without resorting to conventional decorations: place a pale pink Eda Rose tree in a matching paper bag and decorate it with some golden baubles.

Create a very Christmas composition with an XXL star and red Poinsettias, they never clash and add a cheerful touch of color.

You can innovate this Christmas by creating an Advent calendar whose protagonist every day is a red Poisettia.

We propose a composition with Christmas balls in gold and silver. You only need to hook each ball to a piece of wire that you can bury in the soil of the pot without damaging the roots of the Poisettia. Play with colors to create harmonic combinations.

Add rustic elements to your Christmas table. In this case, the vases with the poinsettias are lined with branches to add warmth to the table.
