What makes realistic artificial flowers so great, you ask? Well you’re in luck, because in today’s blog, we have the answer. Here at the House of Silk Flowers online store, we think that we offer the best artificial flowers that are available anywhere. Keep reading to learn what makes our high-quality silk flowers so great! Stay in Style Every Season of the Year Let’s face it. Purchasing a living plant that coordinates with each season can be a handful. Not only do you have to learn how much water it needs, what kind of light it likes, and where it can thrive best in your home, but you also have to care for it when it’s out of season. That means that the lovely poinsettia that you purchased for Christmas is going to need somewhere to live in the middle of summer, too. Unfortunately, many people lack the space to put so many plants for every season, but with House of Silk Flowers, there’s a solution. Our realistic artificial flowers are easy to take care of (more on that in the section below this) and don’t need to be displayed in your home all year round. Simply pull it out of storage when you decorate for the changing seasons and then put it back in the basement when the next season arrives. It’s easy! Incredibly Easy to Care For As we mentioned above, every one of our realistic artificial flowers is a breeze to care for. Since they’re artificial, they don’t need the constant attention that living plants do. There’s no need to water them since they’ll look good for ages! All it takes to keep your brand new faux botanicals looking their best is a feather duster. Simply brush the dust off as necessary and continue to enjoy! Now isn’t that so much easier than trying to remember which plants are on which watering schedule? Perfectly Complement Any Room in Your Home Another great thing about choosing our faux botanicals is that they’re the perfect addition to any home. Whether you prefer modern décor in neutral colors, bohemian chic with lots of playful pastels, or even if you have a bachelor pad and your decoration is more wabi-sabi, your home will benefit from the best artificial flowers available. Grab a succulent for the kitchen counter or opt for a topiary in the living room. Whatever you choose, it’s sure to be a great addition to your home and will help the environment to feel more alive! A Thoughtful Gift for This Holiday Season With Christmas right around the corner, it’s time to start decorating and getting into the holiday spirit!

Crafted With Care and Pride One of the questions we get the most about our realistic artificial flowers is whether they are actually made of silk.

Whether that means that we’re using wood, metal, plastics, or synthetic fabrics, you can be sure that you’ll get something that looks like the real deal, but requires much less hassle. At House of Silk Flowers, our goal is to make the most beautiful, high-quality artificial flowers that will last people for years to come.

One of the comments we get the most often is that “they just look so real!” We’re thrilled that you love them and in today’s blog, we’re going to take a look at five of the best spots for you to proudly display our quality silk flowers. In Your Bedroom If you’re anything like us, there’s a big chance that your bedroom doesn’t get much light. Perhaps you’ve tried displaying plants in your bedroom before, but found that the lack of light makes it hard to keep the plant happy and healthy, so back out into the sun filled living room it goes! Here at House of Silk Flowers, we think that bedrooms are a great place for a large silk floral arrangement. It’s never a bad idea to bring a piece of the outdoors inside to use as part of your home décor, but when indoor conditions make that a challenge, faux botanicals are the answer! In Your Kitchen A kitchen is the perfect place to proudly display our silk plants and flowers.

When you need to kick it up a notch (BAM!) in the kitchen, but don’t want to have to remember to water the plants, grab a couple of the best artificial flowers on the planet from House of Silk Flowers.

Sure, it’s the perfect place to display pictures of your loved ones and your favorite coffee mug, but it’s also prime real estate for our faux silk flowers. You don’t need to have a large amount of space to make this one work. Just clear off a section of your desk, pick a little something out from our online store, and enjoy all of the benefits of looking at our beautiful faux botanicals while you work without the hassle of having to water them.

When a friend or loved one moves into their new home, it can be difficult to find a housewarming gift that suits them perfectly. In today’s blog, we take a look at why buying a silk floral arrangement from the House of Silk Flowers online store might be the best option and which housewarming presents are clichés that you should avoid. Stay Away From These Housewarming Gifts A piece of art. Art is such a personal thing and it can be hard to find the right piece for a friend or loved one even when you know what their tastes are. This is one gift that should be avoided entirely if you’re unsure of what the person you’re buying for might like. Don’t risk spending your hard earned money on a piece of art that will end up at Goodwill next week. Anything that’s trendy. There’s a time and place for trends, but unless there’s a good reason, it’s probably best to avoid a trend in favor of something that’s timeless. Don’t worry so much about what’s in right now; instead, focus on purchasing a gift that will be well loved for years to come. A USB wall outlet. Perhaps this falls into the “anything that’s trendy” category as well, but USB wall outlets seem to be high on the list of gifts that bloggers think people will love, whereas the truth of the matter is that most people would rather have a functioning outlet that they can plug their phone charger into. A welcome mat. Nobody needs more than one welcome mat (which they’re likely to get at a housewarming party). Enough said. Food. Unless you’re specifically asked to bring a certain food, consider bringing a different gift. Don’t bring something that could be hit or miss (unless, of course, you have a recipe that knocks them out of the park every single time). After all, there will probably be plenty of bags of chips and soda there already. Our Real Looking Artificial Flowers Are Sure to Be a Hit What’s better than a gift that will class up any house and requires little to no care? We’re sure that the recipients of such a thoughtful gift will be thrilled by your thoughtfully chosen gift. After all, couldn’t pretty much any home benefit from having a bit of outdoors brought inside? No one needs to know that they’re realistic flowers and they won’t be able to tell either! Does it get any better than that? It turns out it does, because right now you can save up to 40% on a number of the pieces available in our new collection! Whether you’re looking for something seasonal to perfectly suit your needs this holiday season or something you can leave up year round, you’re sure to find it in the House of Silk Flowers online store! Whether you’re purchasing silk flowers online for an upcoming housewarming party, for a Christmas gift, or for yourself, we’re sure that your purchase is something that will be enjoyed for years to come.

Orchids are a beautiful and exotic flower that makes a beautiful addition to any indoor decorating scheme. The only problem with growing orchids in your home is that they take a lot of work to keep alive. Such a delicate, expensive flower must be watched carefully, watered consistently, and adequate humidity which can be hard to maintain in regions of the world that tend to be very dry or cold. Luckily, House of Flowers offers a full selection of realistic artificial orchid flowers that can allow you to enjoy their unique shape and beautiful colors without all the constant worry that you might be killing them! Keep reading to discover some more interesting facts about orchids! All varieties of orchid are bilateral symmetric, which means that if you were to cut the entire flower down the middle, both sides would be identical. Orchids don’t produce the same types of root systems as other flowers. Instead, they have rhizome, tuber, or even aerial roots. Some orchids are parasites! Instead of producing their own food via sunlight and carbon dioxide, they obtain nutrients via fungi that live in their unusual roots. Orchids aren’t just beautiful to look at! In different parts of the world, substances obtained from the orchid are used in perfumes, food flavorings, and traditional medicines.   Choose Realistic Artificial Orchids For Beauty And Convenience!   It’s very easy to overwater an orchid, which can trigger decay in its root system and ultimately kill the plant. That’s why we highly recommend choosing our realistic artificial orchid flowers instead! You can enjoy the lovely shape and appearance of this flower without all the hard work that’s normally required to keep orchids alive. Shop now!

When it comes to running a business, buying silk flowers online is probably the last thing on your mind. There are customers to serve, human resources to manage, and last but not least, goods and services to sell! However, the way your store, clinic, or office suites look when a client enters them can have a big impact on the way they feel about your business. Does your waiting room say that you’re professional and organized? Or does it feel sterile and uninviting? While fresh flowers can be a big expense for not a lot of payoff, buying silk flowers online gives you a way to add a warm touch to your company’s facility that will last for many years to come.

You may have noticed that many of the silk flowers we sell online do not have vases or display containers included with them. This allows us to keep prices for our realistic fake flowers lower than some other providers of silk flowers. We also find that our customers like to be able to display their silk flowers in vases or containers that they already own. In other cases, such as when flowers are being purchased for a wedding or corporate event, the need for a large number of matching display containers may arise. Here are just a few of the beautiful containers included in our full collection of vases and planters that complement the silk flowers that you may buy from us online! Weathered Basket Featuring a wicker weave in a weathered grey color, this basket display container is both understated and modern. We love to point out this container because it has a plastic liner, which means you can use it for both faux or live flower arrangements. Stoneware Planter This lovely stoneware planter is perfect for the shorter silk flowers that you might buy from us online, like artificial succulents and bushes. Clay Tray Vases If you’re buying silk flowers online for a special event, like a wedding, dinner party, or corporate holiday gathering, or perhaps looking to decorate a commercial space such as a lobby or reception area, these matching clay tray vases are a perfect choice. Available in wide, shallow styles or taller cubed styles, your silk floral arrangements will really pop against the drab gray color. House of Silk isn’t only a place to buy silk flowers online, we also have lots of beautiful container options in which you can display your realistic fake flowers...and live ones too!
