silk flower arrangements

I have used silk flower arrangements for many years now.  I've used them for my daughter's wedding and they worked wonderfully; they really retain their beauty for a long time.

I also take silk flower arrangements to the cemetery to place in a bronze vase at my mother's grave; they always look so much better than all the dead flowers I see wilting away. I try to change them out at least twice a year because the elements can be hard on silk flower arrangements.  I usually just bring the used silk flower arrangements home and place them in my front yard planter, it adds some color to the front yard. 

I also have silk flower arrangements throughout my house.  If I get tired of a certain arrangement, I just take it outside and put it in one of my clay pots.  I've saved a lot of money doing this instead of planting a bunch of real flowers, in fact, you can even mix real flowers with silk flowers to make them blend in better;  you'd have a hard time telling which are real flowers and which are not.

My neighbor also uses silk flower arrangements in her front yard!  She has a desert landscaping, and if she had to water flowers then weeds would grow.  She uses the silk flower arrangements in clay pots; just like you would real flowers and they look so life like.

I think the price you pay for silk flower arrangements are well worth your money because they last a long time and they look gorgeous all the time, unlike real flowers.
