How to Choose the Right Preserved Flower Composition
Preserved flower decor is more than just a beautiful accent - it’s a long-lasting way to bring nature, warmth, and personality into your space. But with so many options to choose from - centerpieces, bouquets, flower boxes, wall decor, and custom orders - how do you know which one is right for you?
Here’s a simple guide to help you pick the perfect piece, based on your space, style, and needs.
1. Think About Where It Will Go
Start by considering the space where you want to place your preserved flower arrangement. Common places include:
- Your living room, bedroom, or bathroom
- A bookshelf, desk, or entryway table
- A wall space in a hallway or child’s room
- Your office - either at home or in a professional setting
Understanding your space will help guide your choice. For example:
- Large space → Go bold with a centerpiece or tall arrangement.
- Small space → A miniature flower box or delicate bouquet will do beautifully.
- Wall space → Try a hanging semi-wreath or botanical wall piece
- Out-of-reach display → A great option if you have pets or little ones around!
2. Choose the Right Color Scheme
Do you want your floral piece to blend in with the tones of your room, or stand out as an accent? Both approaches can work beautifully.
- If you prefer a calming, cohesive look, choose a composition in the same color family as your space.
- If you want a focal point, pick a color that contrasts your walls or furniture - or complements an existing decorative element.
Color can be emotional, too. Neutrals feel serene and timeless. Pinks add romance. Greens are grounding. Warm tones feel cozy and welcoming.
3. Match the Size to the Space
Proportion matters. A few examples:
- Big dining table → Large centerpiece
- Small office desk → Mini flower box
- Wall niche → Hanging floral decor
- Shelving → Compact piece with height or interesting texture
Don’t overcrowd your space - preserved florals should feel effortless and intentional.
4. Want Something Special? Go Custom.
Sometimes you already have the perfect spot - or even the perfect vase or base - and you just need the right composition to match. Or maybe you’re planning something special like a:
- Wedding
- Bridal or baby shower
- Anniversary gift
- Memorial piece
