Silk By Design: blooming marvellous

A jolly time filled with family visits, end-of-year functions and summer soirees, the festive season is filled with entertainment opportunities.

With it, of course, comes the party food, the party drinks and the party decor.

Whether you are throwing a big bash or having loved ones stay over, you want your rooms and tabletops to be filled with pretty decor that marks the occasion. One such decorative item is flowers, of course, but in the summer heat, blooms can quickly wilt and having to replace them every few days can become a costly endeavour, which is why now is the perfect time to give silk flowers a go.

Apart from the obvious benefits – no drooping heads, no wilting leaves and no recurring costs, there are plenty more benefits to choosing silk flowers Silk by Design, a stockist of quality silk flowers including lilies, orchards, peonies, roses and tulips, explains.

“People are making the switch from real flowers to silk ones for their friends and family and choosing to give these as gifts for special occasions. Silk flowers are truly perfect for birthdays, Christmas, Easter, graduations, anniversaries, weddings, Mother’s Day, and more,” says Silk by Design.

What’s more, with silk flowers, your favourite bloom is always in season – and available in just the right hue.

“Making specific flower combinations into a bouquet can be difficult. Some flowers bloom once a year, while others arrive within a certain window. You don’t have to worry about perfect timing when you choose fake flowers,” Silk by Designs says.

“One of the best things about faux flowers is you can enjoy them whenever you want. It’s easy to create a gorgeous bouquet full of your loved one’s favourite colours and types. Flowers also come in various shapes and colours, such as pink, purple, red, white, or yellow.”

Not to mention that these flowers are perfect to use when entertaining large groups as they don’t cause allergies and are animal-friendly and water-wise.

So why not give silk flowers a go at your next event? They’re blooming marvellous if you ask us!
