Three steps to prepare an artificial plant for your interior
Artificial plants have become an integral part of modern home decoration in recent years. They are the perfect alternative to real plants: they require no water, can be placed anywhere and stay in top condition all year round.
Moreover, they provide that green, natural look that gives your interior a fresh and lively atmosphere. But even the most beautiful artificial plant only really comes into its own if you give it the right attention. Wondering how to do that? In this blog we help you in 3 steps to make sure your artificial plant fits your interior perfectly.
Styling & unfolding
When you receive your artificial plant, it may not look exactly like the picture. Our artificial plants are shipped in long, narrow boxes. This ensures that the plants have no room to move during packaging and cannot be damaged. But don't worry, all you have to do is take some time to carefully unfold the branches and leaves. This will ensure that your artificial plant reaches its full volume and stands out beautifully.
Bend the branches into the right position and give the plant its natural shape. If you are unsure about how best to style it, you can always get inspiration from the images on our website. You will see how a little attention will quickly transform your artificial plant into a lifelike eye-catcher.
Choose an ornamental pot
The decorative pot is not just an addition; it is the finishing touch that really makes your artificial plant stand out. Choose a pot that suits your interior style and combine colours, shapes and materials for the best result. Think of a sleek, modern pot with a concrete look or go for a rustic wood or terracotta pot for a more natural and/or warm atmosphere. The possibilities are endless, so let your imagination run wild and choose the pot that takes your artificial plant to the next level.
Finish of your choice
Our artificial plants come standard with a sturdy black pot (not an ornamental pot) that is filled with cement for stability. This makes it easy to place the plant in an ornamental pot. But of course you don't want your artificial plant to fall over or shift, so make sure it is properly fixed in the ornamental pot. A simple way to do this is to fill the ornamental pot with floral foam or cardboard. This will keep the plant firmly in place.
Finally, you can finish the top layer with a natural layer of bark, decorative gravel or hydro pellets for a luxurious look. This ensures a stylish, well-groomed and lifelike finish to your artificial plant!
In short; artificial plants offer numerous advantages that real plants simply cannot match. They require no maintenance, can be placed anywhere in the house, and always remain beautiful. No wilting leaves, no dragging watering cans, and no worries about the right amount of sunlight.
So what are you waiting for? Get that artificial plant into your home, style it to your liking, choose the right decorative pot and make sure it has a natural finish. Questions about styling your artificial plants? Let us know!
