Tips On Selecting Fall Stems

Now if you are unsure of which beautiful fall stems would look best in your home, let me give you some tips and thoughts to consider before you buy.

Consider the Stems Tone

First thing to consider is the tone of the stem. Do you have more neutral tones or bright tones throughout your home?

Since I am a neutral loving girl, I’m not going to buy any stem that has a very bright tone – it simply would not fit with the current neutral tone of my homes aesthetics. It would make the room ‘feel off’. And that’s not the look we are going for in our home decor!

Tans, beiges and even some muted red shades are mostly what I keep my eyes peeled for when shopping. Even though I may see a ton of beautiful fall faux stems, if the color tone isn’t the right fit for my home – I pass it up.

Pay Attention To Realistic Characteristics

You don’t want to choose a stem that looks SO fake, right? So a few questions to ask yourself: are the branches hand painted? What material are the stem leaves made of? Do the leaves have marking that resemble the look of real branches clipped from trees?

Often what it comes down to getting a faux stem branch that looks fantastically realistic is the price point.

As always, I totally recommend staying in your decor budget. But sometimes, saving for a quality stem that will last for years is a very affordable way to shop.

Shop Off Season

Speaking of savings, I’ve often found the best time to snag a great quality fall stem is late in the season or even the off season. And at the beginning of the season (like now!), many stores will run sales as well. No need to pay full price!

This may require some patience on your part – but I believe good faux stems can definitely be worth the wait!

Fantastic Vases

Now let’s talk about some beautiful vases to display your new fall stems. The right vessel is KEY in making your fall stems look their absolute best. Below are some of my top picks:

So which fall stem was your favorite? My personal pick and I’m sure will be a popular fall stem this autumn season is the Tall Nandina Leaf Branch. Also, the Burgundy Green Leaf Branch is just gorgeous and would go with any homes decor!

I hope with these tips and suggestions, you will find some fall stems that match perfectly with your style and your homes decor! Now, who’s ready for cooler weather and those fall leaves to start appearing? ME!
