Why We Love Realistic Artificial Flowers (And Why You Should, Too!)

by Jeaneth Flores on Dec 07 2016
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! What better way to do that than with our Christmas Collection? There are plenty of options—whether you prefer snowflakes, silver, or classic red and green, we have you covered. Regardless of what time of year you find yourself in, we always have the perfect seasonally-themed items available for you in our artificial flower shop! Whether you are buying for yourself or buying for a friend or loved one, there are years of enjoyment to be had from each of the faux botanicals from the House of Silk Flowers online store! Free Shipping on All of Our Silk Plants and Flowers Every order here at House of Silk Flowers is shipped for free. After all, no one likes to pay for shipping, and when you buy any of the realistic artificial flowers or plants on our website, you don’t have to. It’s also important for us to note that each and every order placed in the House of Silk Flowers online store is packaged with a great deal of care. We even include removal instructions that will help you to remove your order from the packaging. All it takes is a small amount of minor shaping, but your new silk plants and flowers should be mostly ready to display as soon as you pull them out of the box! 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. Although they are commonly referred to as “silk flowers” in the industry, we utilize a wide range of materials in order to make our plants look just like the real thing. 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. We take a lot of pride in our attention to detail and we think that you’ll be thrilled with any of the products you order from our online store. Place your order today!

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. It brings a bit of life into a space that often feels like it’s reserved for decorations that are a little less organic and a lot more…well, sterile. That’s okay, but bringing in something that’s green can bring a whole new life to your space. 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. In Your Office This one is a bit of a curveball, but think about your workspace for a second. Whether that’s a desk in a home office or a cubicle downtown, there’s a good chance that it could use a bit of help. 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. High Quality Realistic Artificial Flowers Here at House of Silk Flowers, we’re proud of what we offer. Our realistic artificial flowers look great no matter where you choose to display them! Browse our collections to find the piece that works best for you, place your order, proudly display it, and then forget about it! Well, mostly anyway.
