Creating a cozy atmosphere with candles is wonderful—but safety should always come first:

• Never leave candles unattended: Extinguish before leaving a room or going to sleep.
• Keep away from flammable items: Place holders on stable, heat-resistant surfaces and away from curtains, paper, or textiles.
• Use the right size candle: Ensure a snug fit in the holder to avoid tipping or overheating.
• Avoid drafts: Keep candles away from open windows or vents to prevent flickering or accidental spread.
• Clean holders regularly: Remove wax buildup to reduce fire hazards.
• Choose the right holder: Always match the holder to the type of candle—tea lights, pillars, or tapers.
• Ensure ventilation: Burn candles in well-ventilated spaces to avoid harmful fume buildup.

Artificial blooms are long-lasting with just a little care:

• Fluff before use: Gently spread petals and leaves after unpacking.
• Check usage: Only use “Outdoor Safe” products outside—they’re UV-treated to resist fading.
• Clean carefully: Dust with a soft cloth, compressed air, or a gentle shake. Avoid water or chemical sprays.
• Store wisely: Keep in cool, dry spaces away from sunlight and heat.
• Air dry if outdoors: Make sure they’re completely dry before storing.
• Protect shape: Store garlands and wreaths separately or with padding to preserve form.

Dried flowers bring natural beauty with minimal care:

• Keep out of sunlight: Prevents colors from fading.
  
• Avoid humidity: Best suited to dry rooms, not kitchens or bathrooms.
  
• Handle gently: They’re delicate—move carefully.
  
• Choose quiet spots: Display in low-traffic areas.
  
• Dust softly: Use a brush or cool hairdryer.
  

Dried Floral Wreaths

• Indoor use only: Hang in cool, dry places, away from sunlight and heat.
• Gentle cleaning: Lightly dust with a soft brush.
• Storage: Wrap in tissue paper, place in a cardboard box with padding, and avoid plastic containers (which can trap moisture and cause damage).

Caring for Preserved Flowers & Leaves

Preserved flowers keep their beauty for years with the right care:

• Keep dry: Avoid water and humidity.
• Avoid direct sunlight: Colors may fade.
• Handle gently: Support stems from the base.
• Dust regularly: Use a feather duster or cool hair dryer.
• Store cool: Keep in low-traffic, shaded spaces.
• Eco-friendly disposal: Preserved flowers are biodegradable.

Minimal upkeep needed: Dust lightly when required.

Longevity: Can last if stored in a dry place, away from heat and humidity.

Fresh foliage wreaths add seasonal charm with a natural scent:

• Moisture matters: Spray lightly with water weekly, focusing on the back and needles.
• Best outdoors: Fresh wreaths last longer on outside doors with constant airflow. If bringing indoors, keep outside until needed.

To ensure your flowers last longer and remain beautiful, follow these care instructions:

1. Choose the Right Vase: Use a vase that is about two-thirds the height of the flowers and has a neck wide enough for air circulation. Keep vases clean, and opt for dark-colored glass to help prevent algae growth.
2. Add Flower Food: Use the cut flower food provided according to the instructions on the packet. This helps prolong the life and vibrancy of your flowers.
3. Prepare the Stems: Cut the bottoms of the stems diagonally with a sharp, clean knife or secateurs just before placing them in water. Remove all foliage that will be submerged to prevent decay.
4. Avoid Dehydration: Keep your flowers away from central heating, direct sunlight, large appliances, and drafts to prevent dehydration.
5. Keep Away from Fruit: Do not place flowers near fruit bowls, especially those with apples, pears, plums, or tomatoes, as they emit ethylene gas which can cause wilting.
6. Regular Maintenance: Every three days, recut the stems, clean the vase, replace the water completely, and add more flower preservative.
7. Remove Dead Flowers: Regularly remove any dead or dying flowers and any fallen foliage from the water to maintain freshness.
8. Enjoy the Buds: Some flowers may arrive in bud form to ensure they last longer and you can enjoy their full bloom over time.
