Now that you have purchased your beautiful handmade everlasting wreath, it's essential that it maintains its beauty and charm for years to come. Read on to learn my key tips for maintaining the beauty and longevity of your new everlasting wreath!
Regular Dusting
I like to use my hair dryer on the lowest heat and speed setting to gently remove any dust from my wreaths. Alternatively you can use a soft bristle brush or a microfiber cloth to gently remove any dust and debris from within the flowers and foliage. Avoid using harsh chemicals or stiff brushes to dust your wreath as these can damage the wreath.
Protect from Moisture
Excessive moisture can damage your wreath. To prevent mold or mildrew growth on the wreath, avoid placing your wreath in areas of high humidity, such as bathrooms or kitchens. If you are using your wreath outdoors (like most of us!) please try to make sure it's sheltered from rain and moisture to help maintan its beauty and longevity.
Avoid Direct Sunlight
My wreaths are designed to withstand the elements and built to last but prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading and slight discolouration over time. To help preserve the vibrant colours of your wreath, avoid hanging it in areas where it will be exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods. Try to place your wreath in a location that receives indirect or diffused light to help maintain its beauty.
Store Properly
Whilst not in use, it's essential to store your everlasting wreath properly to prevent damage. Ideally, I would suggest to store your wreath in the box it arrived in if still in tact or alternately store it in a breathable storage bag or box. Ensure it is stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
