Advantages Of Using Floral Water Beads

By Marissa Velazquez


Floral water beads play a major role in the flower decorating business. They are basically small decorative objects that swell as much as ten times their actual size when added to water. They are used to make flowers in vases look more beautiful. They add a beautiful color when added to a flower arrangement in a clear glass vase. These substances are biodegradable and are a powerful absorbent of liquids.

They are safe to work with because they are not toxic at all. However, there are some cautions to take when dealing with these products. First, they should be kept out of reach from small children since they can choke them if swallowed. Second, any bead that falls on the ground should be swept up as these substances may become slippery when wet. They should also not be frozen or flushed down the drains.

These products are used to pot flowers and they can also act as base fillers for flower centerpieces. When used with floral arrangements in clear flower vases, they provide a beautiful color alternative. They also hide the stalks so that the arrangement appears neater and more appealing.

These beads make use of a substance called polymer and this substance is similar to silicon. It can absorb liquids of up to 400 times its weight and release them slowly. This feature is a big blessing to florists who tend to be busy and do not have time to keep monitoring their flowers. The feature enables them to do other businesses while the flowers progress on well.

This substance is greatly helpful to them because it can be used as a substitute for natural soil in the case of potted flowers. It is odorless and produces no toxins making it environmental friendly. It is therefore convenient even for indoor use. With proper maintenance, it can last for up to seven years. It also works well in gardens for conservation of liquids.

It also has the benefit of releasing vitamins and other nutrients to the roots of the flowers making the flowers healthy and last for long periods. It allows for about ninety percent water absorption by the flower whereas clay soil would only allow fifty percent. Adding a small amount of natural dye makes the flowers an attractive piece of decorative display.

People often use them to make decorations with flowers during special events. Gift items can also be wrapped along with these items to make them look classy. The glass vase could be in fact cheap but when you add some clear crystals to be the base fillers for the package, it appears gorgeous and expensive. One could use artificial or natural flowers and could either submerge them into the crystals or let them just float and they will appear classy gorgeous way.

With floral water beads, one can make different designs for displaying flowers. You could choose to use a single color for the entire design and if not so, you can work with multiple colored layers to come up with a different design. You could also buy a ready-made package from a florist but generally, making the package yourself is cheaper.
