Learning Academy: Bonsai Trees And More by Misha Vasser

Decorating with bonsai trees was originally a Japanese technique. They had such an affinity for trees and their beauty that it became common place for a small tree, such as a bonsai, to have a prominent place in the home. That custom has spread across the world. It is important to know the dimensions of the area in which you will add your own bonsai tree, whether you are using a real or a silk plant. As with any type of greenery, you will need to consider the width of the pot and the height of the tree when it is fully grown. Also, the container you choose should not be a mundane decision. The exotic nature of the plant should be complimented by the container it is kept in.

The Elegant Maple Tree

Maple trees in nature are hearty, tall, beautiful trees. Part of the reason why maple trees are so renowned is because they have a beautiful leaf pattern (in part made internationally recognizable by the Canadian flag). These distinguished maple leaves have three main points with several smaller points jutting from their edges. It is amazing how well the look of the leaves is reproduced in silk maple trees. Also, the amount of leafage on silk maple trees is much greater than with most other tree types. With so many leaves, the tree appears very verdant and fertile, but keep in mind that silk trees do need a periodic cleaning. Since cleaning the leaves of the silk tree realistically usually only happens once or twice a year, one should not judge this to be too much of a bad thing.

Decorating with Silk Tulips

One of the best loved silk flower varieties is the tulip. Tulips’ shape and petals make them very distinguishable. Tulips are a great flower to use for almost any decorative need. Tulips are unique in that they are not stuck in a certain classification in terms of festivities or a particular time of year. Another immensely popular flower, the rose, is one type of flower that has a lot of stereotypical meanings attached, limiting it in ways that the tulip is not limited. Because of their long slender design, tulips require very little space to occupy and to beautify. Tulips are wonderful for flower arrangements: they look lovely by themselves, and they add color and charm, without being overbearing, in more diverse arrangements.

Decorating in an Arid Environment

Great home decorating invites surrounding environmental aspects into the home and makes the resident feel comfortable. If you live in a more dry climate, there are many components of nature that will look gorgeous in your home. Some greenery you can add to your dcor include bear grass, cacti, and grass horsetails. Be creative with your desert dcor by adding rock arrangements or sand. Most of these combinations will have a light red or orange feel. If you have children in your home it would be a good idea to get a silk or artificial cactus instead of a real one, due to the needles. Even if cacti cannot do lasting harm, they can still create an unpleasant experience for little ones!
