Fake flowers vs real flowers

For some reason loads of people look down on fake flowers and judge the people that buy them. I won't lie to you, I used to be one of them. Some people consider fake flowers a cop out and they think that it's almost lazy to choose fake flowers over real flowers. If you asked me a month ago I'd probably agree with you but I've recently been working for All About Eve, a wonderful homeware company that sells artificial flowers among many other gorgeous home furnishings...so I bought an artificial hydrangea...and then another one...and then another four...and then pretty much every other artificial flower they stock.

Artificial flowers are fantastic, they always look perfect, there are no dud petals or buds, no mess to clear up, no mouldy flower smell if you forget to change the water, in fact no water needed at all. Most importantly you only have to buy them once, need I say more...

I'm not telling you all to buy an artificial forest like I have through my MANY impulse purchases, I'm simply saying don't knock them till you've tried them.
