In this article, we’ll expand this topic a bit more and tell you how to make your own home prairie and what decorative style would suit it perfectly. Don’t miss out!

How to create a prairie to decorate your home

Making a prairie is a very easy and fun task. Pay close attention!

First, you have to get the necessary materials. For the prairie we suggest, you’ll need the following Verdissimo products:

1. Helychrisium Diosmi

This filler flower has many uses, though it’s typically used to give volume and freshness to compositions. We love this preserved product because it’s very natural and rustic.

2. Lavender

Lavender is another ideal product for more rustic decorations. This filler is very common in country-style and natural decoration. For a prairie, it’s a must-have.

3. Gynerium

This is the ideal product to break up rigidity in compositions. It has a very intense and natural green color that makes it the perfect product to create fake prairies.

4. Lanuginosa

It has a very country-style feel. This product is very special thanks to its small balls, which makes it very recognizable. We also love lanuginosa for prairies because it’s another product that gives volume to floral creations.

5. Pole Moss

They’re typically used in works to make them natural and fresh. It’s a product that gives so much freshness that it’s commonly used in feng shui and country-style decoration, which is why it’s a can’t-miss for a prairie.

The idea is to create volume at different heights, alternating colors of different products such as yellow rice flower or lavender.

From Verdissimo, we suggest creating a prairie with these products. However, there are many more that you can use to create compositions in this style.

Floral ideas with preserved flowers

We recommend you use preserved flowers for your floral ideas, since these products have numerous advantages. The main one is that they hardly require any maintenance, i.e. neither light nor water to survive.
