Types of silk flowers

When it comes to silk flowers, there are endless varieties for you to get creative with!

In my own designs, I use both silk and plastic artificial flowers for DIY projects. This combination is both affordable and durable for long-lasting, gorgeous decor!

Flowers like ranunculus, hydrangeas, roses, and tulips are great options. A good mix of flowers and greenery creates realistic and elegant silk flower arrangements.

Color and style

The colors and style of your silk flower arrangements will depend on your personal taste and your existing home decor. 

For a spring-inspired look, try pastel colors like blush pink, light blue, and lavender. They look soft and lovely together!

For a more dramatic effect, deep-toned colors such as plum and burgundy add richness and depth. These are perfect for winter and autumn!

Bright and vibrant colors such as yellow and orange can add a pop of color to any room. They can add a sunny pop to your space any time of the year. 

When choosing colors, consider complementing or contrasting with your existing decor; this will create a cohesive look.
