Whether created with fresh blooms or high-quality faux florals, floral arrangements are a timeless and versatile decor element. In addition to adding natural beauty, elegance, and a refreshing ambiance to a space, award-winning interior designer Pacita Wilson loves incorporating arrangements to add a softness that pottery and accessories cannot achieve. Pacita describes the multifaceted role arrangements play in adding vibrancy, texture, and style to any space.
Bringing nature indoors enhances aesthetics and overall appeal by creating a connection with the outdoors. It adds life to your space, says Pacita! Fresh flowers' natural colors, textures, and fragrances create a sense of growth/vitality, promoting a welcoming and refreshing atmosphere. Enduring faux floral arrangements offer an attractive solution with minimal maintenance and retain their beauty exponentially longer. High-quality faux florals and greenery closely mimic appearance, allowing you to enjoy stunning blooms without needing watering, pruning, or replacement.
Investing in young entrepreneurs is very meaningful to Pacita, as their vision will shape our economy in the future. Morgan Baldwin is a highly talented entrepreneur whom I am thrilled to introduce to you as we discuss the artful impact of florals. Morgan founded Marigo Flowers in Atlanta, GA, specializing in weddings and events. Morgan’s lovely floral designs have a whimsical garden-style. As Morgan explains, her love of fashion and textiles led her to pursue floral design, where she chooses flowers based on their color, texture, and placement within the arrangement or large installation. Each choice is intentional for her vision. Morgan started her floral career at her sorority Zeta Tau Alpha with a build-your-own-bouquet bar for 200 people. She fell in love and now designing for large-scale events and weddings across the southeast! Morgan is passionate about bringing creative visions to life through her radiant floral designs.
By carefully selecting flower varieties, colors, and arrangements, you can evoke distinct vibes, complement the decor, and showcase event styles. A key component of Pacita's design process is incorporating arrangement as strategically positioned focal points. From elegant centerpieces on dining tables to delicate accents on mantels, entryways, or bathroom vanities, they provide endless opportunities for creative expression. A bright bouquet of sunflowers can add warmth and energy, while delicate roses can lend an air of elegance and romance. Fruit and vegetables also make beautiful statement arrangements by adding a pop of organic color. Try a bowl of lemons or artichokes depending on the season! An artificial orchid topped with moss is an easy go to faux arrangement that compliments any space. You can transform any spot into a captivating focal point by experimenting with different sizes, shapes, and containers.
In addition to their visual impact, arrangements add a fabulous layer of texture and depth. The juxtaposition of smooth surfaces with delicate petals, intricate leaves, and slender stems of flowers creates an engaging interplay of textures. Whether the velvety touch of a rose or the wispy foliage of eucalyptus, floral arrangements provide an opportunity to introduce tactile elements that enrich the sensory experience of a space. Pacita loves the seasonal adaptability of faux arrangements and recommends never to glue anything in its container.
Floral arrangements, whether fresh or faux, offer an array of artistic, sensory, and design benefits. These botanical accents bring nature indoors, enhance aesthetics, add texture, and provide seasonal adaptability. Whether you choose fresh flowers for their natural beauty and fragrance or lookalike alternatives for their longevity and low maintenance, floral arrangements always enliven a space and create a pleasant ambiance. At Pacita's 15,000 square foot shoppe, Pineapple Park, in Woodstock, Georgia, you can create beautiful floral and greenery arrangements in their fabulous flower bar, and her design team is always happy to help! If you want to host a Build-Your-Own-Bouquet event or would like flowers for a wedding, please contact Marigo Flowers @marigoflowers on Instagram or www.marigoflowers.
So, let your imagination bloom and explore the endless possibilities of fresh and faux arrangements.
