The art of decorating ceilings with artificial flowers
When it comes to interior design, the ceiling is often overlooked, yet it can be considered like a large blank canvas. Many people will admit that unless something catches their attention, they rarely look up! With thought and imagination, your ceiling can be quickly transformed into a breathtakingly beautiful focal point, changing the whole room from being ordinary into a captivating space.
An innovative way of achieving this transformation is by adorning the ceiling with artificial flowers. Whilst traditional colourful faux flowers have long been used for tables and walls, more and more interior designers are now using them overhead to add elegance, charm and interest to a variety of spaces. On a very practical level, beautiful artificial flowers decorating the ceiling is a clever way to camouflage unsightly pipework etc.
The easiest way to achieve a dramatically different look and ambiance is to use ready-assembled floral garlands like the ones in the BloomsArt collection. The garlands are gorgeous to look at as they are carefully created with great attention to detail. They are quick and easy to install, are long-lasting and require minimal maintenance.
The art of decorating the ceiling is proving a real game-changer in interior design for a number of reasons:
Flowers create visual interest
Most ceilings are large expanses of blank space, but by introducing colourful floral garlands the room is instantly infused with colour, texture and dimension.
The floral garlands can be attached along beams, along the point where the wall meets the ceiling or in luxuriant clusters in the corners. The garlands can be floral or ones of mixed and variegated greenery. Both will draw the eye upwards and trigger appreciative conversation – and are perfect for Instagram photos! By breaking the monotony of a plain white ceiling, the artificial floral garlands introduce a dynamic element into the design of the room.
Add drama to the ceiling
Gorgeous artificial flowers can be used to both drama and sophistication to any space. The mixed greenery garlands have wispy trailing leaves which can give added depth to the room – and bring the lovely feeling of being outdoors right inside! The play of light and shadow on the different flowers and leaves adds an almost celestial dimension that will make the room seem larger than it really is.
Enhance the ambiance
Flowers have been successfully used for centuries to evoke emotions and carefully placed, then can evoke different moods in a room. Colourful flowers in shades of red and orange are energising and stimulating, whereas soft pastel shades of blue and pink promote feelings of relaxation and tranquillity. Mixed greenery garlands effuse feelings of elegance and luxury to a space. By selecting floral garlands in the colours that will resonate with the desired ambiance, you will be creating an atmosphere that uplifts and inspires.
Long lasting beauty…
One of the best reasons for choosing artificial flowers is that they offer great versatility- you can choose a few well-placed blooms to place in a certain spot or plump for a lavish display that spans the entire ceiling. There are just so many possibilities. Artificial floral garlands retain their beauty indefinitely and they won’t wilt or shed their petals. They also stay perfect in spaces with a low level of light or extra high ceilings where maintenance of natural plants would be tricky.
….that can be customised
If you have decided on some beautiful faux floral garlands, but feel that they are not quite right, you can easily incorporate other elements into the garlands including ribbons, decorative elements in corporate colours, symbols of your profession or some pretty LED lights.
Adding stunning artificial flowers to ceilings is a clever way to elevate a room from being ordinary to extraordinary. The flowers will add visual interest and ambiance and will provide long-lasting beauty in a room that will be viewed by everyone as a haven of charm and style.
