Luyue Artificial Flower Bouquet (Pink)

its quite average looking

Good quality and realistic looking. They create a beautiful look for my party

I mean, these don't super suck, but I am seriously shocked that SOOOOO many people have given 5 star reviews. Like I expected these fake flowers to be the best fake flowers in the entire world from all the countless 5 star reviews. Honestly, I was SO sure from the reviews that these flowers were going to be perfect that when I opened them and did not see something at least 70% perfect that I literally almost cried! lol I actually had a serious debate about returning them because I was SO disappointed with these flowers. Okay, now being completely honest, these flowers are perfectly fine. They're pretty, but they're just average. I wouldn't get excited about them and I sure as heck wouldn't be throwing down 5 star reviews. These flowers are a solid 3 star if you ask me. They are very good quality, but they just aren't as gorgeous as I expected them to be. Now, I bought these flowers because I was making a large wreath for my front door for the very first time. I wanted a gorgeous lamb's ear wreath with peonies for my front door but I am definitely too poor to buy the quality of wreath I was wanting. Therefore, I decided to make my dream wreath myself even though I have never made a wreath before or had any experience with floral arranging. I very carefully and tediously made the wreath of lamb's ear but I could not find any fake peonies ANYWHERE that was not completely ugly! I eventually broke down and decided to purchase these because I was certain they were perfect since they had SOOOOO many 5 star reviews. It was also VERY difficult for me to purchase these because the entire purpose of making a wreath was to spend hardly any money. I had gotten all the other items on sale and after weeks of searching and searching for peonies I would consider suitable enough to be placed in my wreath, I came to the conclusion that even though I felt these were going over my desired overall budget for the wreath, they were, in fact, the most cost-effective option available to me in comparison to all the other much more expensive options. Therefore, I basically spent WAAAAY too much time obsessing about this wreath and clearly had skewed expectations. So, now being in a more logical headspace, I can tell you that if you are needing/wanting artificial peonies, do not expect these to be everything you've hoped and dreamed of or you will be unreasonably disappointed like I was. However, I can for certain tell you that you can scan the internet and the universe and never find better artificial peonies to purchase because these are by far the best deal/value for the quality and beauty you will receive. I initially spent money on peonies from Michaels that were MUCH more expensive than these and SO hideous that even my completely clueless husband shrieked, "DON'T RUIN THE WREATH WITH THOSE UGLY FLOWERS!" lmao Also, if you look at the attached photo of my wreath, you will see that my wreath turned out SOOOOO gorgeous! Basically, you might notice that these peonies aren't exactly what you dreamed they would be, but everyone else will only see beautiful peonies!

This is one of those "you get what you pay for" kind of things. But alas, I am keeping my wedding plans small, and so I ordered these to see what I could do with them. Upon opening the package, they are shipped in a clear plastic bag, and come very misshapen and squished up (meanwhile, some other flowers I ordered came packaged better to preserve their shape). I was seriously bummed when I opened the box. The part where the stems are all held together comes bent in half and secured with a zip tie, so you have to work at unbending the stems. They definitely look like fake flowers, but I figure that's kind of what I signed up for when I decided to use fake flowers. I found a lot of residual hot glue "strings" throughout the bouquet, and none of the leaves are secured in any one spot on the stems. However, a quick google search told me the best way to fix misshapen fake flowers is to use a steamer. So I had to add that to my shopping cart as well, but fortunately, I found this very affordable travel steamer here on Amazon to do the job: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01G9MC7GC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 After steaming (and removal of all the stray strands of hot glue), they looked much better. I ended up cutting them apart and combining them with some other flowers I ordered to create mine and my maid of honor's bouquets. It is a very full bundle, so there is that. After creating both bouquets, I still had a few pieces leftover. I ordered these in light pink, and the colors were pretty true to what I saw on screen. They are that trendy shade of light dusty rose pink that's pretty popular lately. The different blooms come in varying lighter and darker shades so they're not all super samesy and that does help add a little more realism. So to summarize, if you are ordering these for your wedding or some other kind of formal event, be prepared to do some DIY work to well, make them work. It definitely took some patience to steam each individual piece of the bouquet, but the results were worth it for how much better they look now than when I first received them.

Flowers are great. These flowers came well packaged. I didn’t realized it was one bouquet that even had the little extra leaves and flower buds as pictured. I thought they came separated, so sadly I had to take them apart to mix with the others colors and flowers I needed. These were hard to take apart, which I think speaks for the durability of these flowers, they had wire inside so you can bend the stems of the flowers, and even with my wire cutting pliers it was a challenge. Some of the leaves and extra small florals didn’t match my theme for bouquets and after I cut the stems I found out the leaves slide of very simply as if they were meant to be interchangeable. Anyway... after shopping around at many places, Joan’s, Hobby Lobby, EBay, even Walmart, these are still by far the best price available for quality and beautiful realistic look. They came well packaged, and I had no problem with flowers falling off, flowers being completely crushed, etc. And even if you do feel they are squished you can spread the petals with your fingers and it’s all better, the curved cup shape of each petal even lets you flip it inside out to look like a completely different but beautiful flower! These are great especially for the price! Would recommend.

I purchased these for my wedding flowers. They came in protective wrapping, with the stems curved up and held in place with a zip tie. The stems were much too long for a bouquet, so I cut them. I used regular scissors, but would suggest using a wire cutter for safety and ease. Once I cut them, I used a blow dryer, as suggested, to fluff them - which worked. There were a few anomalies on the flowers (the peonies each had little plastic white buds in the center, perhaps to look like a stamen? and a few of the petals had manufacturing holes, see pictures) I cut all of this off. I then arranged them to my liking and tied them in place with twine. The result was exactly what I was looking for - but it was a lot of effort of my part. Expect a project when you receive these!
