How do you clean & care for your faux flowers?Updated 6 months ago
Step One
Begin by simply giving your flowers a good shake to remove any loose dust, either outside or over a surface that you can later vacuum up.
Step Two
Next, gently wipe over the leaves and petals with a damp cloth to remove the remaining dust. We do not recommend using chemical cleaning products on our flowers, so please make sure that your cloth is damp with warm water only! After wiping, allow the flowers to air dry before placing them back in their vase.
And, that's it! These two simple steps will keep your flowers looking fresh, clean and dust-free.
TOP TIP: Add this faux flower cleaning routine to your monthly cleaning schedule to keep your flowers looking their best.
General Care
There are other ways besides cleaning to keep your faux flowers looking their best. For example, we do not recommend placing our flowers in particularly harsh, direct sunlight, as this may cause the colour to fade overtime. We've put together a simple do and don't list below to help you on your way to perfect faux flowers.
Do
- Shake your bouquet to remove any loose dust
- Gently wipe over the leaves and petals with a damp cloth
- Place indoors, away from harsh, direct sunlight
- Avoid humidity and water. Keep the stems in a dry vase only

- Handle gently and protect from pets and small children
Don't
- Use chemical products on our flowers
- Fully submerge in water
- Place in harsh, direct sunlight
