Where to Shop for Unique Home Decor in Des Moines (Without Heading to the Big Box Stores)

When it comes to decorating your home, it’s tempting to grab whatever’s on the shelves at the big box stores. But if you’ve ever wished your home decor reflected more of you—your style, your personality, and your love for things that feel one-of-a-kind—there are better options right here in Des Moines.

At Lavender Blue Floral Artistry, we specialize in unique, high-quality silk and dried floral home decor that you won’t find in chain stores. Our designs are handmade with care, using premium materials that look and feel natural, and they’re made to last for seasons to come.


Why Choose Silk & Dried Florals for Your Home Decor?

Silk and dried florals have become increasingly popular in home styling—and for good reason. Here are a few benefits:

  • They last season after season. No wilting, no tossing, no extra shopping trips. You can enjoy your arrangements for years with little upkeep.

  • They’re custom to you. Whether you love soft cottage-style blooms or bold seasonal centerpieces, your florals can be tailored to your exact style and color palette.

  • They add warmth and character. Florals instantly elevate any space, from entryways to dining tables, and they’re a wonderful way to greet your guests.

  • They’re versatile. From wreaths to statement arrangements to tabletop pieces, silk and dried florals can move with you through every season of the year.

FAQs About Shopping for Unique Home Decor in Des Moines

❓ What’s the difference between silk and dried florals?

Silk florals are made from premium fabrics designed to look incredibly lifelike, while dried florals are real blooms that have been preserved. Many of our designs combine both for a textured, natural look.

❓ Do you ship outside of Des Moines?

Yes! We offer nationwide shipping on most of our designs through our online boutique. Local pickup in West Des Moines is also available if you’re nearby.

❓ Can I order a custom arrangement for a specific space in my home?

Absolutely. We love working with clients to create pieces that fit a dining table, mantle, entryway, or even a porch. Custom orders are perfect for seasonal swaps or year-round statements.

❓ How often should I update my seasonal decor?

Many of our clients love refreshing their homes 3–4 times a year—spring, summer, fall, and winter holidays. Silk and dried florals make this easy since they store beautifully and can be rotated with the seasons.

❓ Where can I see your work in person?

You can shop online anytime, but if you’re local, stop by our booth at Painted Tree Boutiques in Clive (Booth F24) to see a selection of pieces up close.
