No one wants to sweep up fallen petals or see the unsightly carcass of dead flowers in molding jars or vases. In this collection we have artificial tulip arrangements that will make you home beautiful without the mess.

Buying Guide

There are those who live in an area wherein it's difficult to procure fresh tulips. Having a new tulip arrangement each week isn't economical as well. Fortunately, you can opt for an artificial tulip arrangement and use it as part of your home décor.

Artificial tulip arrangements are available in several sizes, materials, and colors. Faux flowers allow you to enjoy as many arrangements as you want as they don't punch a hole to your pockets. You may, however, require help in choosing the best faux arrangement of tulips for your home. If so, then check out our buying guide below.

How to match artificial tulip arrangements with your interiors?

If you're planning on getting artificial tulip arrangements to decorate a room, you need to ensure your new home décor doesn't look and feel out of place within your space. To help you with this, here are tips to keep in mind:

Choosing the Correct Color - Pastels are a safe bet especially with tulips as they resemble the real flowers closely. However, if you want tulips arrangements that make a statement, consider going for the ones with a jewel tone.
Checking the Vase or Planter - Most artificial tulip arrangements come with their own vases. The vase that you can put your money into is one that suits the color scheme of your room. If your arrangement doesn't come with its own planter, choose the shape, color, and size that make sense within your space and the size of your flowers.

What are artificial tulip arrangements made of?

Artificial flowers, including tulips, come in a wide range of fabrics and grade. There are those that are made using low-grade papery nylons, while some consist of high-grade latex and wax coated fabrics.

Consider the pros and cons of each material to determine what suits your needs and preferences.

Fabric-Based Tulips - Fabric-based flowers are readily available and they're close to infinite when it comes to shape, design, size, and color. Because of the enormous selection of tulips that are fabric-based, the quality also varies so you should be selective.
Foam Tulips - Foam tulips are the cheapest on the market right now. They're lightweight and they look lifelike when they are mixed in a beautiful bouquet. The low price can be considered as this type's main advantage, but these tulips are durable and pliable as well. The only thing we don't like with foam flowers is their undersides which can look untidy.
Wax-Coated Tulips - These flowers are categorized as "real touch" because they are coated with an oily wax which makes them look and feel like skin. They're silk or fabric-based flowers coated in layers of wax. They're more realistic compared to uncoated tulips. You may find them to be pricey compared to the aforementioned materials as wax coating is an added feature.
Latex Tulips - Latex tulips are similar to wax-coated ones as they possess similar properties. They're also categorized as flowers that are "real touch." They are of better quality compared to wax coated tulips, however, as they are based on pure latex. Latex doesn't fray like silk, but it can translate to a higher cost.
