"Discover Kathy Hilton's Holiday Floral Magic"

Flowers: The Key to a Happy Home

Kathy Hilton firmly believes that flowers have a remarkable ability to bring joy. She emphasizes that having fresh flowers around is not only aesthetically pleasing but also beneficial for one's mental health. As she arranges flowers with UrbanStems' floral designer Justin Lievano, she passionately shares her insights. 1: "Flowers have this unique charm that can instantly transform a space. They add a touch of elegance and warmth, making any event feel more special. Just seeing those vibrant colors and delicate petals can lift one's spirits and create a positive atmosphere." 2: "For Kathy, flowers are an essential part of her home decor, especially when hosting events like her iconic holiday soirees. She understands that each arrangement should be a work of art, adding a personal touch to every corner of the house."

Variation: The Essence of Originality

Hilton shares a practical tip that stems from a personal "pet peeve." She doesn't want her home to look like a charity event with every table having the same arrangement. Instead, she advocates for a little difference in each bouquet. 1: "At her daughter Paris Hilton's housewarming party, she realized the importance of variation. Seeing the same flower arrangement in multiple rooms was a sight she couldn't bear. She believes that by adding unique elements to each arrangement, it becomes a true reflection of one's style and personality." 2: "Whether it's using different colors, adding fruits like lemons, limes, or cranberries, or incorporating miniature cabbages, the possibilities for creating original arrangements are endless. It's all about thinking outside the box and making each arrangement stand out."

Fruit: A Surprising Addition

Kathy's favorite way to keep things fresh and original is by adding fruit to her floral arrangements. She loves using lemons, limes, and cranberries in glass fish bowls, and even hanging down a big bunch of grapes or placing a plum and an apricot here and there. 1: "The combination of flowers and fruit creates a visually stunning and unique display. It adds a touch of nature and a burst of color that complements the flowers perfectly. It's a simple yet effective way to make an arrangement truly one-of-a-kind." 2: "For Kathy, it's all about experimenting and having fun with different combinations. She believes that by incorporating unexpected elements like fruit, she can take her floral arrangements to the next level and leave a lasting impression on her guests."

Choosing the Right Flowers

When it comes to choosing the right flowers for a holiday bouquet, Kathy always goes for her favorites: white ranunculus, white and red peonies, white anemones, and an assortment of garden roses. 1: "These flowers have a timeless beauty that never goes out of style. They add a soft and romantic touch to any arrangement, making it perfect for the holiday season. Kathy's choice of flowers reflects her refined taste and attention to detail." 2: "Each flower has its own unique characteristics and charm. The white ranunculus with its delicate petals, the red peonies adding a pop of color, and the anemones with their graceful form all come together to create a stunning bouquet that captures the essence of the holiday."

A Sprig of Rosemary: Good Luck Charm

Kathy notes that adding a sprig of rosemary to an arrangement brings good luck. It's a small detail that adds a special touch to the overall look. 1: "Rosemary has long been associated with good fortune, and Kathy believes in its power. By including a sprig in her arrangements, she not only adds a beautiful element but also brings a sense of positivity and luck to the event." 2: "It's these little touches that make a big difference. A sprig of rosemary can transform an ordinary arrangement into a magical one, leaving a lasting memory on everyone who sees it."In an Instagram Reel shared on Nov. 22, Kathy offered an inside look at her annual holiday pajama party. She hosted the event with her daughter Nicky, 41, and also shared her sons Barron, 35, and Conrad, 30, with her husband Rick Hilton. In the clip, viewers got a glimpse of her dazzling Christmas tree and the fresh flowers she had scattered all around her home.
