    Mine is a mixture of both.

    Do what I did find a good online fake flower florist and let them decide which look best!

    Really? I wasnt sure if they would look right together. I found two sorts that I want to use in my bouquet, but one is foam and one is silk, so now i know it is possible to have both thats a great help, Thanks Bowski.x

    Foam or fabric if they are a good quality. They are made from a variety of different materials and the real touch are latex which are different from foam.

    Here are a few examples I have used some of them are using foam, fabric and real touch together.:

    Purely a matter of taste. Foam flowers are a bit like Marmite... you either love them or hate them! If you do go for the foam ones, the top of the range ones tend to be the more realistic looking. Personally, I prefer non-foam to work with as the foliage on them isn't as realistic as the other ranges available.

    I'm really not a fan of fake flowers, so I may not be the best person to answer this question, but I really dislike the foam ones, whereas I can tolerate the silk ones from a distance.

    The advice I can give you as someone who dislikes them and doesn't like to see them is that there is such a huge difference in quality between presumably different manufacturers. Some just look soooo fake, but others you really have to get close to to tell they are not real.

    Personally I think going for these better quality ones is the way to go.
