    VARIETY IN COLOUR AND SIZING     

    Did you know their is a bigger varitey of colours and sizes to choose from when it comes to artificial flowers. You may have to research wheres the best place to purchase your choosen flowers from, but many stockists have a variety of larger and smaller flowers to choose from, you can even purchase giant flowers, for display purposes.

    LIFE EXPECTANCY 

    One main benefit from artificial flowers, is they last a lot longer than fresh flowers, and aslong as they have being protected with sprays the colours will last longer. But to preserve them even longer, keeping them away from direct sunlight will help massively. 

    REPURPOSE AND RECYCLE

    You can repurpose artificial flowers, for instance if you chose artificial flowers for your wedding bouquets, you could ask for them to be made into an arrangement, wall art, or door wreath, so you can benefit from your special day for many moons to come. 

    CLEANING IS SO EASY

    They are easy to clean aslong as you keep upto it, you can steam your flowers, which will help them keep there shape aswell as cleaning them. (I will go more into the cleaning process in another blog)

    SEASONAL WHAT's THAT.....

    There is no need to wait for the right season to enjoy your favorite flowers. Who loves tulips ( one of my favorite flowers ) Tulips as we all know appear out of nowhere and dissappear just as fast. I just dont have enough time to enjoy my favorite flower. 

    EXTREMELY REALISTIC 

    Carrying on with tulips, DID YOU KNOW, you can purchase real touch flowers? not all types have this option, but it is usually tulips and roses, some are very rubbery but a high quality real touch tulip can look extremely realistic. Infact I recently made a mother's day arrangement and customers thought the arrangement was real. Due to the tulips looking so realistic.

    NOT A FAN OF WAITING FOR YOUR BOUQUET TO COME INTO BLOOM ....

    One thing I am not a fan of is when half of a bouquet comes into bloom before the rest of the flowers. With artificial they arrive at your door in full bloom, and never change, unless you have purchased a bouquet to purposely have a few heads partially open, such as rose buds, as most rose bouquets give a variety of open and closed buds.

    Allergy sufferer? 

    Does someone in your family suffer from allergies ? I know for one my hubby suffers quite badly, especially with liles. With artificial flowers their is know worrying one of the family is going to suffer from your beautiful flowers, ending in you having to dispose of them to soon. 

    Cost

    Do you purchase weekly flowers for your home, are you like me and cannot resist a bunch of daffodils to brighten your home after the darks winter nights. Artifical flowers can be as inexpensive as you want it to be, and will save you a small fortune in the long run if you do like to treat yourself weekly.  

    Pet friendly 

    Do you have animals that loves to nibble on things they shouldn't some varieties of plants and  flowers can be deadly to certain pets, I am extremely conscious of this, as we have a rabbit, that loves to nibble on all things naughty, and some plants imperticual are deadly to him. I love my rabbit like a child, he is actually more like a dog than anything else, so for me I would risk his health because I wanted to have a vase of beautiful fresh flowers.
