How to care for fresh flowers so that they will last longer?

1. Store your bouquet / arrangement in a cool environment avoiding direct sun, wind and humid condition. Aircon room would be great! *DO NOT place them in your house fridge or directly under a fan as this will shorten the lifespan of your fresh flowers. If you wish, you may also unwrap your bouquet and place it in a vase with fresh water. 1. Change water once in every two days / when water is cloudy 2. Trim 2-3cm off the stems at a slant angle before submerging your flowers in water. 3. Remove any wilting flowers or foliages that would be submerged in water. 4. Store your vase in a cool area. 5. Enjoy the flowers!

How to care for preserved / everlasting flowers?

1. Store them in a well ventilated environment avoiding exposure to direct sun and humid condition. 2. Gently dust off with a soft cloth or use a hairdryer (on cool mode) positioned at a distance to blow off any dust on your blooms. Important note: Do not water preserved flowers. Humid condition will shorten its lifespan and cause it to shrink in size / slight discolouration. Preserved flowers, if well taken care off, could typically last at least a year.

How to dry my flowers?

Right before they are about to wilt: 1. Bundle them with a string. 2. Hang them upside down in a well ventilated area for 2-3 weeks / until completely dried. Important note: Not all flowers can be dried nicely. We'll leave you to do a little experiment to find out what flowers dry best! Tag us your progress on Instagram if you wish. We'll love to learn from your experience with flowers too!
