Wild, romantic faux floral arrangements

How to Create a Wild Romantic Faux Floral Arrangement

There's something effortlessly charming about a wild romantic floral arrangement. It whispers of English countryside meadows, soft spring breezes, and timeless elegance. And the best part? You can bring that same romantic charm into your home using faux flowers—no watering, wilting, or waiting for blooms.

If you’re dreaming of delicate blooms tumbling over the edge of a vintage-inspired vase, or want to add soft, feminine touches to your interiors, faux florals are a brilliant way to do it. In this guide, we’re going to show you exactly how to create a wild, romantic faux flower arrangement using your favourites.


Which Faux Flowers Should I Use?

When it comes to romantic styling, think soft, dreamy, and layered. You want to create a look that feels like it's been freshly gathered from a garden—but with all the ease and longevity of faux stems.

Here are a few of our favourites and must-haves:

Faux Soft Pink Delicate Rose Spray

Roses are the ultimate symbol of romance, and our soft pink delicate rose spray is ideal for building a feminine, timeless base. The blush tones add warmth and softness, without being overpowering.

Faux White Willow Eucalyptus

The white willow eucalyptus adds that effortless drape and movement that every wild arrangement needs. It's beautifully airy and adds a subtle silvery tone to your bouquet.

Faux Dried Ruffle Hydrangea and Rose Arrangement

This pre-styled arrangement is full of texture and a great inspiration piece. The ruffled hydrangea blooms are full of volume, while the muted tones keep things romantic and not too bold.

Faux White Spring Floral Arrangement

Think soft whites and fresh greens—this piece is a gentle nod to early spring. It's light and delicate, perfect for softening your arrangement and adding contrast to pinks.

Luxury Faux Foliage Arrangement

To add structure and lushness, we love using our luxury faux foliage stems. They ground your florals and bring that gorgeous garden-like feel.

Mixing and matching these elements will give you a full, layered look that feels as romantic as a Jane Austen novel.

Which Vase Should I Use for My Arrangement?

Your vase is just as important as the flowers themselves. It’s the anchor for your entire display.

Opt for Something with Character

Think vintage shapes, ceramic textures, or urn-style bases. Look for vessels with curves, soft ridges or stoneware finishes to complement the organic, romantic feel.

If you’re going for a more relaxed, countryside vibe, our rustic white ceramic vases are the perfect match. Their soft finish and classic silhouette create a beautiful backdrop for blush roses and wild greenery.

Size Matters

If you’re using a generous selection of faux florals, choose a vase with a wide neck to give your arrangement room to breathe. For smaller displays, a bud vase can make a big impact when styled in groups.

Pro tip: Use florist foam or crumpled paper inside the vase to help anchor and position your stems just how you want them.

Ideas for Lush Green Faux Foliage Arrangements

Sometimes, less is more—and a vase filled with luxurious greenery can be just as striking as a full floral display.

Create Movement and Texture

Use a mix of eucalyptus, willow sprays, and fern-like stems to create movement and dimension. Let pieces spill over the edge of your vase and fan out naturally.

Go Tall for Drama

Greenery can make a brilliant statement when styled tall and proud. Use longer stems in a floor-standing vase for a grand hallway or entrance moment.

Pair with Neutrals

To keep things romantic, use soft white or stone-coloured vases. This keeps the look elegant and timeless.

Styling Tips for Romantic Faux Flowers

Now that you’ve chosen your flowers and vase, it’s time to bring it all together.

1. Start with Your Greens

Begin by placing your eucalyptus or willow sprays in first. This sets the shape and direction of the arrangement. Let some stems drape naturally to one side.

2. Add Your Largest Blooms

Next, tuck in your hydrangea stems and fuller roses. These should be at different heights for a relaxed, untamed feel.

3. Layer in Your Delicate Sprays

Soft rose sprays and white florals can be used to fill in gaps and soften the overall look. Angle them outward for a more natural shape.

4. Step Back and Edit

Once you've built the shape, step back and tweak. Add or remove stems as needed. A little asymmetry adds to the wild and romantic charm.

Mix and Match Your Faux Stems

One of the joys of faux flowers is their flexibility. Change things up with the seasons by swapping out a few stems or moving arrangements around your home.

  • Spring: Focus on soft pinks, whites and fresh green eucalyptus.

  • Summer: Add in cream peonies or pale lavender sprays.

  • Autumn: Introduce muted mauves and dried-look grasses.

  • Winter: Style with darker foliage and dried seed pods for depth.
