La decoration with flowers is something very classic and that at the same time has not gone out of style, because they bring aromas and colors to our home, in addition to the natural touch that we sometimes need to disconnect. But if we want these flowers to last as part of the decoration of our home, we can always make artificial flower arrangements.
The Artificial flower arrangements can be made by choosing the flowers and combining them as best suits our decoration. In this sense, the style and colors of the flowers are very important, since they are what create harmony with the rest of our decoration.
What do you need to do the center
An artificial flower arrangement can be made in many ways, as there are so many materials to use for this purpose. Some of the most used are without a doubt the green foams in which to fix the flowers. You can also use mason jars and other details. It is necessary to have scissors to cut the flowers and we must choose all artificial flowers and leaves that serve as filler. Normally you need a vase in which you put the foam and the flowers, which is something decorative, although it is not always visible. Some choose other containers, such as old wooden boxes and other details that give our center a special touch.
Create a base
The most important thing is to create a good base on which to put the artificial flowers. If we buy this green foam we can always mold it to the extent we need with a cutter. This is how we will create a good base to make a beautiful center. A simple idea consists of creating a rectangular center or trimming the base in a circular shape for a table that is round for example. This will depend on the needs of each house. Wide and green leaves are always placed at the base, to prevent the background from being seen, something that is not achieved only with flowers. That is why we must also buy the plants that serve as fillers.
Choose the flowers well
When choose the flowers we have hundreds of combinations. Find a style that you like. The elegance of white roses, the fun touch of carnations, the freshness of gerberas. You can find all kinds of imitations of flowers in current artificial flowers, with designs that are very similar to natural ones, hence it is a great idea to use them, since they look great. The colors should blend well with the décor, so if in doubt choose neutrals like white and pink.
A good idea is create a monochrome flower arrangement, because this way it will be much easier for us to add all the flowers and make it beautiful and symmetrical. However, if we dare with more shades, it is better to limit ourselves to two colors. Only for those centers that seem made with wild flowers is normal to use all kinds of colors.
Use candles
Although the centers of flowers can be made simply with flowers, on many occasions we can put other elements that add something to the whole. Candles for example are widely used. You can buy a glass container that keeps the candle separate from the flowers, something that is very important for safety, in case we light the candle. Add foam around the glass jar where the candle will be and put the flowers and leaves until this part is covered. The candle will give the whole a romantic touch and you will have a centerpiece that will be worth to decorate many spaces.
Baskets for the center
Sometimes we want to make a different center that has a different effect and that is decorative for us. Wicker baskets are very popular today and have become fashionable again for all kinds of styles, especially for the Nordic or the country style. If you want a artificial flower arrangement that is different We suggest that you choose a nice wicker basket to add the flowers inside. If these flowers have a country and casual look, it will look even better. It is a very informal center, so it can be put in places like the entrance of the home or in a corner of the living room. It is also ideal for the kitchen.
Wooden boxes
Wooden boxes can be another good container to add the flowers we like the most and create an artificial flower arrangement. They are a detail that we can find a lot today because they can be used as storage space. But if you want to give them another use, you can always gather artificial flowers and fill that box with them. It is easier if you add the foam or a small pot that contains them so that they do not move and so that the center is better.
