Are artificial flower arrangements really worth the money? It's a fair question, but today's answer is going to be significantly different than it was ten years ago because of the vast improvements in quality due to improved technology. The value can depend largely on the sources you choose. Generally speaking you're going to find a much higher quality in a specialized name brand product from stores that specialize in artificial botanicals versus your local big box department store. Of course what you need it for largely determines what quality you need to choose. If you're looking for a few stems for the cemetery (check their policy first) to last for several months you can do fine at your local discount craft store. However, if it's professionally designed artificial flower arrangements or bouquets for your wedding, it's going to require a different search entirely. It all begins by looking in the right places, and weighing your budget ahead of time. Other considerations are the environments where your flowers or plants will be placed. If you're planning an outdoor wedding, nothing is more versatile nor more beautiful than a correctly planned selection of silk botanical sprays, silk flower arrangements and artificial floral decor. Don't worry about fragility, as the silk style will handle most any weather environment and look fabulous doing it.
If you're the crafty person, or trust a close friend who is, you may be able to fashion your own ideas providing you're prepared for the outcome and the amount of work involved. Some have a real touch for crafting artificial flower arrangements and some don't, but don't add to your stress level wondering when and if the final product is going to meet your satisfaction. In other words if you can afford professionally customized artificial florals I wholeheartedly recommend them. They can be ordered and RECEIVED well ahead of time. I also recommend if you order on line that you order at least several individual stems as samples well ahead of time so you know it's the style and quality you expect. If you're familiar with some of the top brand names it would be helpful to know what the retailer uses. Some of the ones we recommend are Larksilk, Flowers Royale, Aldik, Botanical Silk, or Silk Visions, being high end custom made floral designs that you will always treasure.
Special occasions like Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, Thanksgiving, or Christmas can mean the need to find a unique, everlasting gift, and there are some gorgeous artificial flower arrangements available. Do you have a sibling that always seems to "out do" you for Mother's Day? Mom will never forget this presentation, as she will be displaying it daily, providing you consider her present decor and choose carefully. You don't have to break the piggy bank to get a nice display, but always get the best for your money.
Something a little different for yourself might be a pair of floral wall sconces to decorate your own home, as you know the style and colors best for your abode. Wreaths and arches are also great items to decorate with inside and out year round. Let your imagination (and your budget) be your guide, but always get the best you can to be happy with the look and performance.
No matter if you're looking for simple or elaborate artificial flower arrangements, you'll be surprised and probably elated with what you find. Plan ahead, shop carefully and your efforts will pay off beautifully whether it be for that special wedding, or for adding spectacular decor to your home or office for years of enjoyment.
