I was so excited to preview some pretty amazing pieces of furniture
gorgeous rugs and even amazing accessories while at High Point Market.
It seemed like around every corner there was another inspiration just waiting
to be discovered.
So many different things caught my eye and inspired me while I was there.
Things like big pieces of furniture and small things like delicate faux florals.
I shared a look at some of the faux florals recently and several of you
let me know that you had one of these gorgeous arrangements from NDI
and how much you loved them and just how well they have lasted for years
you already know that I think that having flowers and greenery is truly part of the finishing touch
in a room and is at the top of my list
A beautiful bouquet of flowers in the perfect complimentary color
or even a twiggy green olive tree in a bucket on the counter is perfect.
Whether they are a boxwood or a rosemary or an evergreen variety
My husband shakes his head because he knows all too well about
how my green thumb works with topiaries-
they are really not a great marriage.
I guess it’s that either I water them too much, water them too little,
give them too much sun or maybe it’s not enough sun.
So after years of buying little charming topiaries and being sad when they are not thriving
maybe some of the best topiaries are the ones that last and last
and do not require any special care-
like these little dainty topiaries that I am in love with from NDI.

I definitely think I need this grouping to place on the sideboard.
Love this little olive tree too

and I could imagine several spots for each
Plus- they are husband approved. These will last and last.

Like if you have allergies or someone in the house with allergies
or maybe you have cats that like to eat those pretty blooms
or you live in a climate that makes it hard to keep fresh flowers for more than a couple days
Or maybe you simply want a special bouquet that you love
that will last and last
I admit that I wondered if the faux florals would look real but they did.
They looked incredibly real and some of them even felt real
I wanted to walk over and smell them.
ready to display.
Gorgeous- and no worries about allergies while you sleep for those of you who are allergic to real grasses or blooms.
one of the armoires- they are gorgeous and their pale coloring is perfect
for a chippy basket or a farmhouse pitcher.
I love them.
I had no idea that there were that many different types of faux plants and florals
and that they were not like the ones of yesterday
for their pretty color and texture or for a photo even
I also have a big crush on lime green and white together

The trees and flowers look so real. You don't have to worry that you have killed them. I can't believe that the flowers aren't real – they good so good. Thanks for sharing.
Have a great weekend.

Every NDI arrangement that I see sparks a desire to own that beautiful thing. I loved this post and all the gorgeous flowers.

Sometimes faux is fine and fabulous! Thanks for introducing us to this wonderful source.

I have a couple of arrangements from NDI and they are premium. I especially love the hydrangea and peony – two of my favourite natural flowers, but these ones don't die off within a day or two.

It's so nice to see such beautiful flowers while we are sitting here in another snow storm in Michigan. I jumped over from another blog when I saw the title of your blog. I am mostly French, although I was born and live in the US. It would sure be nice to live in a French country cottage!

I have a large NDI arrangement that I purchased at an auction a few years ago. It has roses and hydrangeas in a tall glass vase and it still had the tags on it. I priced it on their web site and it was over $500…I paid $20! Now that made me happy!
