Introducing flowers is perhaps one of the easiest, fastest, and least expensive ways to upgrade the overall aesthetics of any kind of space, whether it’s your home or office. They don’t only add pleasing pops of colors to your background but also bring a positive effect on your emotional well-being as well.
Be inspired to fill your entire home with fresh flower arrangements with these tips.
Get inspirations.
Believe Picasso when he said, “Inspiration exists, it just has to find you working.”
Thank heavens for the Internet, now you don’t have to search far and wide to fuel your mind. Creative-sharing platforms, such as Pinterest and Instagram, are brimming with wonderful ideas you can use as pegs.
Go beyond the living room.
While it’s sensible to focus on the living room where most entertaining of guests happen, don’t forget about other parts of your home, especially functional areas where you spend a lot of time. This includes your kitchen, bedroom, home office, or bathroom.
Spread the happiness around the house by creating lovely low flower arrangements using good ‘ole Mason or Ball glass jars. Fill each glass jar with a stem of rose, peony, or ranunculus with filler flowers and foliage, such as eucalyptus, stock, statice, or baby’s breath.
Make your flowers the center of attention.
If there’s something you’re embarrassed about in your home, say, an old furniture or window, bring in stunning flower arrangements and let it do the trick. Draw the attention to the flowers away from the unsightly features by displaying them cleverly on high tables, center tables, or in an interesting vase. An exquisite orchid arrangement is always perfect if you’re looking for a piece that commands attention.
Be bold with your blooms.
It’s almost impossible to ever go wrong when it comes to flowers. Be bold and all out when decorating your home with them. Go for classics or for vivacious colors you’ve never tried before. Experiment with textures and new ideas. Save on cash and stock up on fun by shopping a bunch of flowers from your local farmer’s market.
Make your flowers last longer.
The first step is choosing flowers with the most staying power.
Orchids are hands down our top choice. Cut orchids can last up to three weeks, with cymbidiums being the most robust. Getting a stunning orchid plant is a practical alternative without compromising on style. With proper care, the blooms last for months, the plant can last you for years, and bloom over and over.
Other long-lasting flowers are carnations, lilies, and chrysanthemums.
The way you treat your flowers is crucial to how long they’re going to last, too. Put your flower arrangements away from windows that get too much sun, heaters, fireplaces, stoves, or television sets. Always change the water and wash your vase as much as possible daily.
