Lots of designers on the design shows all over TV love to snub the artificial flower arrangement. They “pooh-pooh” anything that’s not “fresh”. I say BAH HUMBUG! How many of us can walk out to our garden’s year round and pluck off enough beautiful flowers to fill a vase on a regular basis? How many of us can afford to constantly go to a florist and buy fresh flowers to fill our homes? Not many! That’s when a nicely done floral with quality – key word here – QUALITY flowers makes all the difference. Have them done in a vase or container that suits your style and enjoy them year round. A one time purchase and they look fresh and beautiful all the time. Here are some I found by a “to the trade only” source called, “The French Bee”. They are fresh, fun and bring a little of the outdoors in…..even if it is with a “faux flower” instead of a “fresh flower”
How fun and fresh does this arrangement look……..and I love the harlequin design on the container
Shades of pink in a vertical harlequin vase
Softer tones in this arrangement are just beautiful
More pinks in a “bouquet” design
For a small space – tuck this in for color and fun
A fresh, fun wreath with lots of happy colors
Dramatic greens and creams
A large vase of white. Gorgeous!
Pinks, peaches and creams make this doorway inviting
Soft blue hydrangeas add color and pizzazz
A basket of flowers never fails to cozy up a space
Dramatic bundle of sunflowers. How’s that for fresh and happy?
The right kind of “faux” floral arrangement adds just the right degree of warmth and fun and interest to a space. It’s like adding the right bracelet or necklace to that little black dress. Funny how one little thing like a piece of jewelry can dramatically change a look. Just like you would do to complete your outfit…..don’t forget to add the jewelry to your home for that extra little sparkle and finesse!
