Silk wild flowers: Give the beauty of nature a permanent place
in your home!
I grew up in Colorado, where there were fields of beautiful
wild flowers of all colors just beyond our backyard. We loved
playing outside, sometimes in our own backyard, and sometimes
in the fields, where we would venture to roll around in the
flowers, or sometimes pick them, either to make necklaces and
headbands out of them, or to take bouquets back to our yard.
When we made bouquets, we would take them back to our
Silk wild flowers can help give your house warmth and color all
year long. My sister and yard and decorate our tree house with
them.
We loved to play with the wild flowers , experimenting with different color
combinations and placements, making our tree house seem
all the more grown up, real, and welcoming.
Flash forward a few years (I won’t say how many!). My sister
and I both live in big cities now, and don’t have access to
wild flowers like we once did. The best we can do is buy
flowers in the flower shop, which can be really expensive over
time, and which, to be honest, don’t really capture the
natural, random beauty of a bouquet of wild flowers. It’s just
not realistic for us to have our tree house decorations in our
adult homes.
But with silk wild flowers , we found out, it is possible! Now, don’t tell
me: when you hear “silk flowers,” your first response is
not exactly positive. You think of those old, stiff
decorations from your great aunt’s basement, or the
library in your elementary school. They had ugly and
unnatural colors, and bore no resemblance to the wild
flowers I’m talking about-or, really, to any flowers at
all.
But silk flowers these days are made to look much more
authentic. They come in all species, sizes, and colors, so you
can hunt down the exact flowers you want to decorate your home.
For my sister and I, this meant we could find beautiful silk
wild flowers, just like the ones from our Colorado childhood,
and make permanent bouquets with them.
The silk wild flowers look and feel just like real flowers.
Their petals are delicate and soft, and their colors are subtle
and shaded. The stems and leaves are also delicate-not stiff
and plastic, like the silk flowers of our childhoods. They look
so real that your guests will be fooled time and time
again.
Best of all, you’ll be able to decorate your house to look as
if you stepped right out your back door, into the field of wild
flowers beyond your back yard, and picked the bouquets right
there. These bouquets will last permanently, and can be shifted
into different combinations so you can always shake things up.
The look of wild flowers keeps your home closer to nature, even
if you live in the city. They add warmth and beauty to your
home all year round.
