AFFORDABLE DECOR | ADD A TIMELESS TOUCH OF ELEGANCE USING SILK ORCHIDS

HAPPY TUESDAY, EVERYONE!

IF YOU KNOW ME, YOU KNOW I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED ORCHIDS!  ESPECIALLY, FOR HOME DECOR AND AS A TIMELESS DESIGN ELEMENT.

HOWEVER, YOU WILL ALSO KNOW THAT I CAN'T SEEM TO KEEP THEM ALIVE, UNLIKE MY OLDER SISTER WHO IS A PRO! I'VE TRIED THE ICE CUBE TRICK AND THE PURIFIED ROOM TEMPERATURE WATER TRICK, BUT THEY NEVER SEEM TO BLOOM AGAIN.

THERFORE, GOING WITH A FAUX, YET VERY REAL LOOKING, ORCHID HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY NOW NOT SO SECRET WEAPON TO KEEPING THEM LOOKING CHIC FOREVER. THEY COST ONLY A LITTLE MORE THAN A REAL POTTED ORCHID, BUT LAST A LIFETIME.

the Silk FlowerS FEATURED BELOW were provided by the WONDERFUL folks at CSI Wall Panels.  I AM LOVING THE orchids AND THEY TRULY DO LOOK REAL!

IF YOU AREN'T INTO faux flowers for decoR, BUT still want to add a touch of elegance to your home, YOU MAY WANT TO TRY SOME of their textured wall panels OR A sleek room divider as seen below.

I am seriously consIDERING ONE for my new place AND think IT would make the perfect accent wall TO HELP DIVIDE MY SPACE. What do you think? ❤

LOVE THE SIMPLE, YET CHIC, VASE IT COMES IN THAT MAKES IT EASY TO INCORPORATE INTO ANY STYLE OR COLOR SCHEME.

SHAPE THEM TO LOOK LIKE REAL LEAVES.
