Floral accessories are more than just decorative touches—they are keepsakes, memories, and expressions of personal style. Whether you’ve chosen a delicate preserved flower crown for your wedding, a silk boutonniere for a special event, or a whimsical mini wreath for your child, caring for these handcrafted pieces ensures they remain as enchanting as the day you received them. Here’s your definitive guide to keeping your Faber Accessories floral treasures vibrant and beautiful for years to come.
The Art of Preservation: Why Care Matters
Preserved and artificial floral accessories from Faber Accessories are crafted to last, blending natural beauty with enduring elegance. Preserved flowers retain their softness and shape through a special treatment, while artificial (silk) flowers offer vibrant color and flexibility. With just a little mindful care, these accessories can become cherished heirlooms—reminders of life’s most meaningful moments.
Preserved Floral Accessories: Gentle Care for Natural Beauty
Preserved flowers are real blooms, treated to maintain their fresh appearance for years. Their unique qualities require specific care to keep them looking their best.
Keep Them Dry—Always
Unlike fresh flowers, preserved blooms do not need water. In fact, moisture is their enemy. Avoid placing your accessories in humid spaces like bathrooms or near kitchens, and never mist them with water. This preserves their texture and prevents mold or color bleeding.
Shield from Sunlight
Sunlight can fade the vibrant hues of preserved flowers. Display your accessories in areas with indirect or soft light—think bookshelves, dressers, or shaded alcoves. This simple step will keep your flower crowns and corsages as vivid as your memories.
Handle with Care
Preserved petals are soft, but they can be delicate. When adjusting a floral hairpin or placing a mini crown on a child, use gentle hands. Avoid squeezing or bending the blooms, as this can cause bruising or breakage31.
Dusting: A Ritual of Renewal
Over time, even the most protected accessories gather dust. Use a soft-bristle brush or a gentle air blower (like a hairdryer on a cool, low setting) to remove particles. This keeps your pieces looking fresh without damaging the delicate petals.
Store Thoughtfully
If you’re not wearing your accessory, store it in its original box or a breathable container. Place tissue paper around the piece to prevent shifting, and keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct light and heat sources. This is especially important for Faber Accessories’ flower crowns, ring accessories, and boutonnieres, which feature intricate preserved botanicals.
Artificial (Silk) Floral Accessories: Timeless Elegance, Effortless Upkeep
Silk and artificial flowers are beloved for their durability and lasting color. With proper care, they can remain flawless season after season.
Fluff and Shape
When you first receive your Faber Accessories silk flower crown or hairpiece, gently fluff the petals and leaves to restore their shape after shipping. This brings out their full, natural beauty.
Cleaning: Gentle and Effective
Protect from Sunlight and Heat
Just like preserved flowers, silk accessories should be kept away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Avoid placing them near radiators or vents, as heat can warp the materials.
Smart Storage
Wrap your accessories in tissue paper and place them in a sturdy box. Store the box in a cool, dry area—closets and drawers are ideal. For larger pieces like flower girl baskets or mini wreaths, use a cloth bag or a large container to prevent crushing.
Faber Accessories: Designed for Beauty, Crafted for Longevity
Every Faber Accessories piece is handmade with care, from romantic flower crowns to elegant boutonnieres and whimsical mini wreaths for children. Our preserved and artificial botanicals are selected for their realism and durability, ensuring your accessory stays stunning through every celebration.
