The concept of feng shui (pronounced fung shway) is the ancient Chinese practice of achieving harmony with the environment through the design and layout of space.  Adding new decorative items to your home that represent life, whether with a plant or an animal picture, helps to create a calming, tranquil atmosphere.

If you are hesitant to use real plants because of the work involved, consider an exquisitely made silk plant. They never need water, aren’t messy and always look great.

“Many people shy away from using living plants in their decor, claiming their lack of a green thumb results in unhealthy and dead plants. For these people I recommend using life-like or ‘live looking’ fake plants,” says Joyce Hyde, feng shui consultant. “Attractive, good quality silk plants are available in retail outlets in a wide variety of styles … their vibrant green color that symbolizes life, growth and health can transform a dull, lackluster space into a warm and inviting one.”

Directly imported from Asia, the stems are high quality and look remarkably like real plants and flowers. The designers then fashion arrangements to create different looks — Asian, tropical or traditional — to complement any decor you have.

There is nothing nicer than walking into a home and getting the feeling of openness and brightness.  One great way to bring the feeling of space and the outdoors to your home is to get rid of those dreary curtains and window shades.  Instead, use tall indoor trees in front of the windows to help shade the room.

Our silk bamboo trees can ‘grow’ to up to 7′ tall.  If you mix in some silk trees of different sizes, it will give your room the coziness of a patio setting, and still provide the room with enough shade to be comfortable.  It’s your home, enjoy the view!

There is nothing lovelier than tall leafy trees inside your home to bring a feeling of relaxation and comfort.  In today’s fast paced society, who has the time to water indoor plants and trees?  Well the great thing about silk bamboo trees is that you get the benefit of a lovely indoor tree in your home, but without the aggravation of having to water it, fertilize it, and check it for bugs.

At nearlynatural.com, you can choose from a large variety of silk bamboo trees.  Our 3′ trees can fit nicely on a dining room table.  If you’re looking for a bolder tree to make a real statement in your home, you can use one of our 6′ or 7′ silk bamboo trees.

No matter which size you choose, they are sure to make a great impression and have your guests asking, are those real”?
