caring for your flowers

Keep them dry

Paper and felt flowers are not water-resistant. Do not mist, wash, or wipe them with a damp cloth. Display them away from sinks, showers, open windows, and areas with high humidity.

Avoid Direct Sunlight

Prolonged direct sunlight may gradually fade handcrafted colors. Display your flowers in a bright space with soft, indirect light.

Dust Gently

Use a clean, soft artist’s brush or makeup brush to lift away dust. For larger arrangements, use a hair dryer on the coolest, lowest setting, held at least 12 inches away.

Handle with Care

Lift arrangements by the vase, base, or stems. Avoid pulling, bending, or pressing individual petals and leaves.

Store Them Thoughtfully

For long-term storage, place your flowers in a sturdy box in a cool, dry indoor space. Avoid basements, attics, heat vents, fireplaces, candles, and other sources of moisture or heat.

With thoughtful care, your flowers can remain a meaningful part of your home or celebration for years to come.
