Don't have too many colors
There are many choices of plastic flower colors. You might imagine that colorful plastic flowers will liven up the atmosphere of the house more. However, do not do it if you expect a natural impression.
It is better to buy several plastic plants with the same flower color or at least the same color as this will make the decorations look more natural. Matching flower colors will also make it look more minimalist. If you are confused about choosing the right color, just adjust it to the feel of your room, be it the color of wall paint or furniture such as sofas, curtains, and nightstands.
Separate a series to make it more natural
Plastic plants are usually sold in the form of one stem with many flowers. To make it look more natural and lead to a real plant, cut the plastic flower stalks in one stem into several parts. This will make the arrangement more natural because it doesn't look too neat.
You can use a wire cutter to make cutting between the stalks easier. Don't forget to trim the bottom of the stem, as that's where you usually like to see bits of wire or metal sticking out.
Apply Clear Nail Polish
Ordinary plastic flower stems are made of metal that rusts easily. When the metal starts to rust, of course it will look unnatural anymore. You can work around this by applying a clear color nail polish on the stem so that rust does not appear.
Put it in the container
Placing plastic plants should not be hung, although there are types that can indeed be hung. It's better if you buy plastic plants to put in containers. This will make it look more natural.
You can choose the container you want, from pots to glass vases. Just a suggestion, use a beautiful and matching pot or vase with plastic flowers to make it look more charming. Just don't put it in a large container because it will reduce its natural level and waste space.
Use Pots with Natural Ingredients
Want to strengthen the natural impression of plastic plant decorations as part of the interior of the house? Look for a pot made of natural materials as a container. You can use pots made of materials such as clay, rattan, or straw. Don't rule out the aesthetics of the natural pots you choose, because your goal is to bring plastic flowers to display and beautify your home.
Put Water in the Vase
Not infrequently plastic flowers are intended as living room decorations and placed in glass vases to make them more attractive. Of course you can do that too. However, don't forget to fill the water into the vase. The water in the vase makes the plastic flowers look as if they are living flowers.
Drop Flower Petals
Unlike living flowers, plastic plants certainly cannot die and fall off. However, there is nothing wrong with dropping some flower petals or leaves on purpose to strengthen the natural impression. Place fallen flower petals around the pot you placed on the living room table. Guaranteed, the atmosphere of your home interior looks more natural.
Clean regularly
Plastic plants tend to get dusty more easily. This is because the dust sticks to the petals or leaves. Of course, when the dust sticks, artificial impression will be seen. Therefore, make sure you are more diligent in cleaning and wiping plastic plants at home so that their natural effects are maintained.
It's not difficult, isn't it, showing a natural impression on artificial plants in the interior of your home? If you do the right tricks as above, then the natural atmosphere of plastic flowers is as beautiful as using real ornamental plants.
