Friday Faux Flowers

One of the loveliest luxuries is having fresh flowers and plants around the house.  Despite the few moments of care they require, there are times when life just gets to busy to give them the attention they deserve (unbelievable, but true!).  Fortunately there are some gorgeous faux plants that could trick even the most critical eye. 

From the beautiful Indulge Decor in Houston, which I can’t wait to visit in person one day:

Indulge Decor- phaleneopsis orchid

Imagine how cheerful it would be to wake up and see this pretty pink Phalaenopsis orchid next to your bed every morning.  Or perhaps one of their Mini-Vanda orchids….

If you are still teeter-tottering on the edge of taking the faux leap, check out this post from Indulge.  If the linen maven of Houston can do it, it must be acceptable!

Another source, perhaps more local to some of us is Restoration Hardware

Aren’t these orchids classy in the modern dark pots?

 

Restoration Hardware- faux lavender

I love the charming English Lavender in wood boxes from them too.

*Pottery Barn has some loose faux stems that I saw in their store yesterday, though I can’t find a link to them online. 

Happy (low maintenance) weekend!
