Types

• A small bouquet of artificial flowers in replicas of blooms such as daisies or poppies will be colorful and attractive to places in the home with limited space. Larger arrangements or formal artificial flowers such as roses or lilies also can be used as decorations for the home or special occasions, such as the seasonal centerpiece in the formal dining room or the reception table for a wedding.
  
  

Benefits

• Using artificial flowers for bouquets eliminates the need for watering or adding special nutrients to the blooms for them to continue thriving indoors. Artificial flowers also can be placed in any type of vase or container and can be placed in a window with direct sunlight without having to worry about the flowers wilting.
  
  

Considerations

• Artificial flowers come in a variety of colors, some of which may not be available with real blooms. Any space in the home can be color-coordinated by adding blooms in colors such as brown, bright blue or hot pink. Synthetic or artificial flowers come in handy when you want to let children pick out certain decorative accents for their rooms, as these flowers require no daily care.
