You can read more about faux florals and what these terms mean in our blog.

Real-touch florals are premium artificial flowers made with materials that give the petals and leaves a more lifelike feel. They are designed to closely resemble fresh florals while offering long-lasting beauty without watering, wilting, or replacement.

Decorating Help

Can Design Decor help me decorate if I feel overwhelmed?

Yes. Design Decor was created for customers who love a beautiful home but do not always have the time to search, coordinate, and style everything themselves.

Our curated collections make decorating easier by offering pieces that work beautifully together. From realistic florals and ribbon to lanterns, picks, wreath accents, and seasonal statement pieces, our products help you achieve a designer-inspired look with less stress.

How do I choose the right décor for my home?

Start with the area you want to style, such as a front door, mantel, dining table, kitchen island, entryway, porch, or Christmas tree. Then choose a color palette or seasonal theme and layer coordinating pieces such as florals, ribbon, greenery, lanterns, candle holders, and accents.

Design Decor makes this easier by offering curated seasonal pieces designed to create a cohesive, elevated look.

How do I care for faux florals and greenery?

To keep faux florals and greenery looking beautiful, gently dust them with a soft cloth, feather duster, or cool-air blow dryer. Keep them away from excessive moisture and prolonged direct sunlight when possible. If decorating a space with direct sunlight, use a UV protected floral for lasting beauty.

For storage, place florals and greenery in a clean, dry container where they will not be crushed.

How should I store seasonal décor?

Store seasonal décor in a cool, dry place using sturdy containers. Keep delicate ornaments, florals, ribbon, picks, and decorative accents protected from moisture, dust, and heavy stacking.

Ribbon should be stored in a way that prevents crushing, and florals should be loosely packed to help maintain their shape.
