Realtouch flowers, how realistic are we talking?

Katherine, on February 16, 2018 at 14:30 Posted in DIY 0 4
Hi everyone,
I want to do floral garland table runners myself as a DIY Centerpiece and my mom is trying to convince me to use realtouch silk flowers. I really only want to use them if it’s true that you can barely tell the difference between them and real flowers. Does anyone know from experience how realistic they really are? Do you have any recommendations for them?

    Silk flowers are realistic looking and available at wholesale pricing. Wish site has them oris you shop on ebay or amazon.

    Best suggestion is to compare and get the best deal.

    Yes, you can totally find foliage that is lifelike. Michael's actually has a bundle of leaves I use frequently. You can use wire cutters to dismantle the pieces and then tape them togrther in a row with sticky floral tape. The bundles are $23 though, so get the Michaels App and you can buy them with coupons. It would probably be cheaper to buy fresh greens but only if you are going to DIY that as well.

    I've had multiple friends who've gone with fake flowers. To be honest, unless you're touching the leaves or trying to smell them, you won't tell the difference. I know that www.afloral.com has a pretty good selection of silk flowers to choose from, so I'd start with them!
