Why I am a fanatic for Faux roses in home decoration

“My life is part humor, part roses, part thorns” – Bret Michaels. 

Rose is a Perennial flowering plant (perennial meaning they bloom and exist all year round). Roses belong to a family named Rosacea. There are commonly seven shades of roses each with a different meaning and purpose. Rose word originated from the Latin word “Rosa” which means perennial. Greeks and Romans associated rose with Aphrodite “Goddess of love”. Rose is common everywhere in the whole world as is used by almost everyone to convey the message of love without using actual words.

Addition of other elements in the rose decoration.

Mixed up with other colors and flowers 

I love that roses can mix and match very easily and play nice with other flowers. They impart their beauty without overshadowing the beauty of other flowers. This gives so many combinations to use the same types of flowers yet have a unique setting and arrangement of flowers from the rest. I also use combinations of different colors of roses like pink and white or red and yellow. You can create your combination based on your preference.

Different colors of Roses 

I don’t think you have to be stuck with only one color of roses when nature has provided us with so many other options. You can explore through following common types of roses to keep in your home

Pink faux Roses 

Pink roses symbolize admiration for someone, grace, and femininity. According to me, pink would be perfectly settled in modern decor in your personal space. You can either keep them on your dressing table or in the changing room.

White faux Roses 

White is purity and humility; they show innocence and graceful appearance. I think they would look good in every theme and decor. But they would win extra marks in a French-style decor. I suggest putting them right at the center of the living room to match the walls and connect the decor pattern. 

Orange faux Roses

The luminous and sharp orange color of roses is fiery and lovable. It shows life and excitement. It would look ethereal and perfect in a farmhouse or country-style decor with its simple and warm vibes. I suggest you place these orange roses on the top of your fireplace or the desktop. 

Yellow faux Roses

Yellow roses are just lovely with their light hue. These roses represent friendship and positive feelings. These would be perfect as an accent piece in any decor like modern decor against muted colors walls. Or in French decor with a simple setting. They would even look good in contemporary style decor as accent items and tie the whole setting together. I can see yellow roses anywhere from the kitchen counter to your study table.

Lavender faux Roses 

A bit unusual but totally in fashion, these roses are amazing with their unique flair and appeal. They represent an enchanted and mesmerizing aura. They would go with a more up-to-date setting like modern style decor and for sure in contemporary style themes. I reckon you place them as the centerpieces or in your home office. You can also place them in the kitchen. 

Black faux Roses

Black roses are also unique and a bit uncommon, but they have their attraction alright. These deep-colored roses symbolize mystery, attraction, and depth. They would go perfectly with modern style and contemporary style decor because these two styles are more minimalist with fewer colors. So, black would be a fine choice.
