Silk vs Dried

Clients ask me quite often the pros and cons of silk florals vs. dried natural florals. I have always loved the look of a beautiful dried arrangement but to be honest they have approximately a two year "shelf life" . This can vary depending on the product but I always explain this to my customers. That being said, I typically use a mixture of dried and realistic silks in my arrangements to achieve a very realistic look that stays looking great for years. The arrangement above is an example of the combination.
