A Feather Rose Is Very Thoughtful

All parts of the feather rose, the petals and leaves, are made of real feathers. Surprisingly, they appear and feel like real roses, however they will never wilt. Feather roses may be found in a wide variety of colors and make a superb gift for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and Valentine's Day.  As a matter of fact, a feather rose may be given at any time of the year, not just for a special event.

The entire feather rose, both the petals and leaves are produced from natural goose feathers. Needless to say, upon touching a feather rose, you can't help but notice how soft and silky it is. Similar to roses produced from precious metal such as gold and silver, a feather rose is made manually in a 36 step procedure. The feathers are washed, steamed, disinfected, dyed, dried, trimmed and shaped, and then finally hand assembled.  The colors on a feather rose are as attractive as the genuine roses and are  found  in just about every color of the spectrum. The flower stems on feather roses are created from hand-rolled paper or metal, as a finishing touch.   Many times, depending on where you buy, feather roses are also lightly fragranced so they smell like the natural roses. The great pleasure of having feather roses is that they don't demand the maintenance that real roses need. Imagine the surprise the recipient of a feather rose will get when they are presented with these wonderful hand-crafted flowers? Given their life-like look of dewy-fresh rose buds, the surprise will only be heightened. 

It has been a tradition from days of old   to dry roses, only from lack of a better way of preserving them for the longest possible time, however, drying them is a lengthy and difficult process (particularly when sand drying) and if not handled properly or cut when they are in perfect bloom the petals will just fall off. It is no longer necessary to go through these kinds of labour intensive processes when feathers roses are so easily available. Numerous online merchants are online selling feather roses, all at affordable prices.

The gift a feather rose is a splendid way to keep special memories alive. For example, if they are used in a wedding bouquet, and the bride would like to keep her flowers, the best way to do that is with feather roses.  Roses are always highly favoured by the people when it comes to major affairs including weddings and there is no reason feather roses can't be used as a substitute to the natural ones. When you think how life-like they are, no one will ever be able to differentiate unless the bride discloses the secret!
