How do I care for my dried flowers?
The two worst enemies of dried flowers are direct sunlight and humidity. Flowers will
naturally fade over time, but many people appreciate the subtle muting of colors and
natural beauty that time gives to florals. We recommend no more than 6 months to a
year to replace your florals. Compared to fresh flowers, this gives you roughly 11½ 
months more enjoyment time! If storing, please protect from moisture, extreme heat or
pests.

Dried & preserved florals are for indoor use, away from direct sunlight, heat, high humidity
or moisture. To preserve the unique beauty, please avoid displaying in areas where these
conditions are present.
