There are lovers and haters of artificial flowers. I am a lover of these beautiful florals. If you don't have a big cutting garden or cannot afford to buy fresh flowers, what can you do? The artificial ones have improved so much over the years. I even take mine outside and rinse off with the hose when they get a little too dusty. You can't deny the beauty of these gorgeous "flowers". Thank you for your nice video.

You hit all the good tips! I haven’t been able to be in a store for over a year and managed to buy gorgeous florals online at Target and JoAnn’s and Home Depot. Like you said, all you need is to measure and have a reputable seller. I’m with you on roses. Nothing really realistic yet. But I’ve got great hydrangeas, wisteria, always tulips, forsythia, eucalyptus, lavender and lambs ear. Mixing them with yard greenery does help ramp up the realness factor. Good job! 🥰

You are SO generous with your knowledge and creativity! I plan on trying your recipes for the 'high-end wood finishes too. You blu my mind when you said that "chalk paint is the devil.!! Im not ready to throw it out, but again your wealth of information is so helpful. Thanks, Shannon!

😅add ribbons to glass vases, and tassels draped to add additional zing...gold twist sticks and bamboo sticks for larger arrangements.Simple greenery is good also, Filler, pillar and spiller !!!

Thanks so much for the real touch flower knowledge..didn’t know they existed. We have no Hobby Lobby, no Michaels, no Joanne, no pottery barn here in Honolulu. We only have one small craft store. Even our Lowes is mostly building materials..so we don’t get to see what’s available.

I work exclusively predominately doing high end wedding flower arrangements and decor using faux, dried/preserved, and Sola wood flowers. I just had your channel pop up in my feed and I am so glad it did! I just subscribed because your too of going to ez flowery, alone just helped me so much! Thank you! I am always looking for new owner vendors and already checked out their site! ( : My ultimate goal, as well, is to always make my faux flowers look real. (: Thank you again for the tips on good flower finds (eBay seller). I have never used this vendor before) but I plan on ordering some of their white roses to see what they look like in person. ( :

I also add real preserved dried flowers, real preserved baby's breath, and real preserved greenery pieces, which adds sooo much realism to my pieces! ( : I add tons of eucalyptus to my bouquets and arrangements! ( :

Great tips! Thank you. One idea would be to remove the sticker on the bottom of glass jars. Its very noticeable and draws the eye. 😉

Thanks for this video! I am planning on putting my house on the market soon and faux flowers are something I am lacking. Also greenery. Can’t wait to go shopping!

I love every video and learn something so practical with each one. (I think I've watched them all...some more than once!)

With real hydrangeas the trick is to use the hottest tap water as you can get from your faucet. Trim the ends of your hydrangea and then put them in the hot water. Most woody plants like even roses work well this way. About every 3 to 5 days repeat- your stems will get shorter, but the flowers last quite a while

I don't sell furniture but I love faux flowers in general! Had no idea Lowe's sold them! I may have to make another trip there! I love that combo of Eucalyptus and Hydrangeas! I am going to have to do that!

[marthahoffmann]

Thanks for your video. Absolutely agree with you that some flowers are out of proportion. Roses are never that big and cannot understand why anybody would buy them. I find succulents at Michael's are very real looking but they also have a price!!Just subscribed and looking forward to your videos.

If you have been to the rose garden in Oregon there are roses for as far as you can see. Many of these roses are huge blooms even a little larger than those you were looking at.
