Entrance hall

An entrance hall is often the darkest place in a house where natural light does not get well, and the electric light is turned on extremely rarely. Living flora, located in the hallway, quickly wither and die. Therefore, this room is considered ideal for decorating plants from fabric, plastic, polymer clay.

Bedroom

Flowers in the bedroom should please the eye and adjust to rest. We do not recommend piling it with a large number of non-natural floral compositions, as they collect a lot of dust. Make a choice in favor of delicate shades of floral arrangements - light pink, peach, white and blue. Ceramic vases should also be made in color.

The board
Decorate it with small transparent vases with petals. Look at the modest bouquet of dried flowers, delicate aroma of spices will only contribute to a restful sleep.

Bathroom

In the bathroom, because of the high humidity, it makes no sense to keep natural bouquets, while products made of polymer clay or plastic will not deteriorate and add comfort. Consider the overall design of the bathroom and decorate it accordingly. You can put a large glass vase next to the cabinet with cosmetics or decorate a mirror.

The board
Use floral decoration not only for permanent decoration of your home. Pick up compositions for certain holidays or seasons. For example, on the eve of Christmas, you can decorate the front door with a wreath of mistletoe, and for Easter will prepare a composition of buttercups.

Biedermeier

German art style in the design of bouquets suitable for both artificial and real flowers. Large flower heads on short stalks gather in a round bouquet. Equal elements (plants, decor) are arranged in circles.

The board
Make a bouquet from different plants as well as from the same flowers of different shades (for example, white and purple roses). Arrange each decorative element very tightly, add spikelets or beads as desired.

In the composition of the Biedermeier style, the leaves or the stems themselves should not be visible, only the buds and inflorescences themselves. Such luxury will ideally fit into the interior of the living room and bedroom. However, you need to pay attention to the colors. For the second option, choose products of delicate and pastel colors.

Conduct a thorough preparation, purchase materials of the right colors and other decorative elements in advance. It is important to make at least four circles, so you have to prepare a lot of artificial buds.
