Once you have decided on the perfect floral arrangement, adding accessories is a great way to mix-it-up periodically or to add flare.
There are several things you can do to accentuate your décor that are easy and effective.
Here are five things you can use to spruce up your floral arrangement.
1.
Ribbon - Ribbon is by far the easiest and most cost-effective way in which to add to your existing arrangement.
Since it's available in a rainbow of colors and composed of different fabrics in different patterns, the sky's really the limit when using ribbon.
2.
Fruit - Adding fruit can convey a sense of freshness to your flowers.
A great way to use fruit is by using a clear vase.
Place the fruit (apples are great because of their lively colors) in the clear vase and arrange the silk flowers around them.
Or, use citrus fruits in the basket as well along with the silk flowers.
Using fruit adds a uniqueness that will surely bring attention.
3.
Potting base - You can change up the look of your silk flower arrangement by changing the potting base, and by this I mean what the flowers sit in.
Instead of water, consider adding greenery like reeds or bamboo in a base of pebbles or marbles.
Fruit is also a great way to change things up and add brighter colors.
4.
Butterflies/birds - This is a great way to liven up an arrangement after the winter months.
Butterflies and birds signify springtime and by adding them it creates a renewed attitude and sense of life around the office.
5.
Other - Holidays are a great time to mix things up.
If you have a large arrangement then adding things like ornaments for Christmas or pastel eggs in the basket for Easter are great accessories to highlight the season.
Be creative and consider what decorations are available for which holiday.
Bats and cob webs for Halloween, cornucopia vegetables for Thanksgiving...
There are many ways to incorporate every holiday into your arrangement in fun and exciting ways.
No matter what your existing floral arrangement consists of, it's easy to accentuate, liven-up, or otherwise change/enhance them by using readily available accessories.
By changing the colors and adding things like fruit or butterflies you can effectively utilize the same arrangement to convey different messages and feelings which keeps your existing décor fresh and lively.
