Dried flowers are a great way to decorate your home while maintaining a natural look. Unlike traditional bouquets, dried flowers can last for years with a little care. Here are some tips to maintain their beauty.
Avoid direct exposure to sunlight
To maintain the vibrant colors of dried flowers, place them in areas with minimal direct sunlight.
Keep them dry
Moisture is the enemy of dried flowers. Avoid placing your flower arrangements in humid areas of your home, such as the bathroom or kitchen, where they can absorb moisture and deteriorate more quickly.
Handle with care
Dried flowers are very fragile! When handling your arrangements, do so gently to avoid breaking the stems or dropping the petals.
Gentle dusting
Over time, it is natural for dust to accumulate on dried flowers. To remove dust, use a hair dryer set to "cool" or a very soft feather duster to lightly blow away the dust without damaging the flowers.
Avoid chemicals
Cleaning sprays or perfumes can alter the appearance and texture of dried flowers. It is best to keep them away from any chemicals to preserve their natural appearance.
By following these simple tips, your eternal dried flowers will continue to decorate your living space in an elegant and subtle way for many years.
They are a sustainable choice, but also a beautiful way to capture the ephemeral beauty of nature in a permanent way.
