Looking to add a floral touch to your home without seeing your flowers wilt after a few days? Or want to give a bouquet that lasts longer than a week? Discover why paper flowers are a sustainable, poetic, and eco-friendly alternative!

I've always loved flowers: they bring color, poetry, and a touch of nature to our homes. The problem? Their beauty is fleeting, and buying a fresh bouquet every week ends up being a drain on the budget! So, a few years ago, I found an alternative: creating unique, colorful, and durable paper flowers.

🪷 Peonies, tulips, and anemones are my favorite flowers. But really, I love them all! I think having flowers on your desk, living room, or entryway table is beautiful. Colorful touches that make you smile. And one of my favorite things to do is give them as gifts!

The advantages of handmade flowers 🌱:

Let's not kid ourselves, paper flowers are also an ultra- eco-friendly decor option . No waste, no pesticides, just beautiful paper, artisanal talent and a touch of poetry. And for those who love nature but (too) often forget to water their plants, it's a real relief: they will remain just as vibrant without a single drop of water whatever the season!

Flowers can be personalized! You can choose the colors, shapes and sizes according to your desires! Are you looking for a unique decoration? Paper flowers are a wise choice!! (Personalization is HERE )

Paper flowers VS fresh flowers :

So, let's talk about money! When comparing the price of paper flowers and fresh flowers, you shouldn't just look at the purchase price, but also think about what happens afterward. Fresh flowers, yes, seem inexpensive at first... but with each event, hey presto, you leave with a brand new bouquet. It's not just a "bouquet": it's a series of repeat purchases that turns into a real floral subscription! 😅

On the other hand, paper flowers, while requiring a small initial investment, are like superheroes of the plant world. They don't wilt, don't require watering, and best of all, they can be reused without ever having to ask for a new credit card. 🎉 Once purchased, they're ready to shine at all your events—birthdays, weddings, Christmas, or even when you just need to brighten up your office.

And, the cherry on top (or should we say "flower on the stem"?), paper flowers made from recycled materials are also an eco-friendly option. This is not the case with fresh flowers which, after a long journey (from the greenhouse to your vase), will sadly end up in your compost. 🥀

All in all, investing in paper flowers is a bit like investing in a piece of art: it's sustainable, creative, and a much more economical choice in the long run (plus the designer does a happy dance!). 🌸💰
