Learning Academy: Storing your Silk Wreaths Along with More Info by Misha Vasser
A principle way to decorate your home for the holidays is with a wreath. However, once you have enough wreaths to match all the seasons and decorations you want, you may feel that there is no place to put your wreaths when you are done with them. There are several efficient, organized ways to keep your wreaths stored until you need them. You can actually reuse your wreaths! Reusing wreaths simply means placing different flower commendations on the same wreath with the changing season. Keep in mind that since you will be using this wreath foundation constantly, you will want it to be quite durable. You can attach your flowers or other designs to the wreath using a small amount of glue, a large amount of tape, or a weaving pattern that holds everything together. This technique allows you to cut down on storage space without throwing away or wrecking your wreaths. You can keep several varieties and colors of flowers in one box instead of having 12 or 14 different boxes of wreaths in your garage. However, if you do prefer having wreaths ready-to-hang, plastic containers or a hanging shelf works well. Make sure you do choose a storage method that does not flatten your flowers.
Silk Orchids
There are over 30,000 types of orchids, and almost four times as many orchid hybrids. Because the natural orchid flowers have so many distinct variations, their silk counterparts are also as numerous. One trait all orchids share is a leaf pattern that is semi-symmetrical. The actual flower is also semi-symmetrical, and most have more than one color, combined in beautiful, sharply contrasting designs. Flower arrangements including orchids should display that flower as the dominant one in the display. Many common arrangements have orchids flowing over the basket or vase, standing tall in the center, or surrounded by other greenery. Most orchids are very vivid-looking, but you can find orchids in pretty much any color you can think of. Orchids are a good choice for home decor because they look right for almost any season.
Silk Grass Arrangements
One less well known but interesting and attractive way to decorate your house is to use arrangements with artificial grass. This works especially well in homes that have warm or desert-like colors and Western styles. Much smaller than artificial trees, silk grass decorations are comparable to flower displays. Silk grass goes easily around plants and trees, living or artificial. Window ledges and water fountains also look nice with a silk grass arrangement. Choosing to use silk grasses allows you to step outside the typical decorative modes and try something new and invigorating. The more you play with different ideas and elements, the easier it will be to find the perfect look for each room in your house.
Designing a Silk Wedding Bouquet
Regardless of who you are in relation to the bride, you may be overwhelmed by the task of assembling her wedding bouquet. However, using silk flowers can make your job much easier. You may be surprised at how lifelike silk flowers look, especially in a bridal bouquet. The most traditional bouquets are made from roses. This is actually a wonderful benefit, because the silk rose is probably one of the most perfectly replicated silk flowers that exist. Your bouquet doesn’t have to be radically different to look stunning. A rounded shape, with appropriately colored flowers enhanced with leaves is always a beautiful look. Other more lavish designs have several different kinds of flowers or simple topiary designs, and some others have a very loose and modern feel. Make sure the bride loves your design! Since you are using silk and not real flowers, you can prepare the bouquet long before the wedding day and ensure that it is exactly what the bride wants.
silk flowers, plants, wreaths, and trees add a beautiful, natural-looking touch to any home or workplace. Visit SilkGardenOnline.com to meet all your needs for silk flower arrangements, including silk roses, tulips, orchids, and more!
