Paperwhites at Christmastime – Tips for Forcing Bulbs

There’s something about having delicate white flowers growing indoors at Christmastime that is magical!  Paperwhites are a bulb flower that are related to the common daffodil.  They produce small white flowers that are extremely fragrant.  And, forcing these bulb flowers to bloom at Christmastime couldn’t be easier!  

A few years ago I shared my tips for forcing paperwhite bulbs indoors so you’ll have blooms at Christmastime.  And, since Christmas is just seven weeks away, I thought I’d remind you today to get your supplies ready!  That’s why I’m re-sharing my tips for forcing paperwhites for Christmas as part of today’s Home and Decor Encore!  

 

 

Welcome to Home and Decor Encore

This week the Home and Decor Encore team is sharing Christmas inspiration!  Yes, it’s just the first week in November.  But, remember, we are here to provide inspiration.  Just like magazines for the Christmas holiday are on newstands in October, we also want to be a bit ahead of the season.  And, there’s so much great inspiration for Christmas this week!  Lori from The Stonybrook House has an amazing tutorial to make your own lanterns!  And, Laura from Duke Manor Farm has a tutorial to make DIY wooden outdoor stars!  Cristina from RemodelaCasa is sharing 12 Christmas Mantel Ideas.  And, Christy from Our Southern Home is sharing how to put together a Christmas Brunch Board.
