With just a touch of care, your handcrafted paper flowers can be enjoyed for many years. Remember, however, that these delicate creations are sensitive to the passage of time.

Gentle Cleaning:
If dust accumulates, gently remove it using a soft, dry paintbrush, like a dedicated duster or a clean makeup brush. Avoid rough or abrasive materials that could damage the paper, and absolutely never use water or cleaning products, as they'll cause discoloration and harm.

Protecting Your Flowers:
Two key factors can affect the longevity and beauty of your paper flowers: sunlight and moisture. Here's how to keep them looking their best:
* Sunlight: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as it can fade the colors and make the paper brittle. Choose a spot with gentle, indirect light for optimal display.
* Moisture: Keep your flowers away from humidity and sources of water, like kitchens and bathrooms.

Crepe paper
The main ingredient for paper flowers. A type of thinly coated tissue paper, that is gathered to produce a crinkle texture. I make my flowers to last, and for the majority of them, I use heavy crepe paper due to its resilience and good stretching properties. I also use fine crepe and tissue paper for small details such as stamens, sepals, etc...

Wires
Another key element of a paper flower is used to make stems, leaves, internal structures on large blooms, etc…

Clay
I sometimes use clay to create some small details or as a part of a sculpture. Any piece made from clay will be properly cured, varnished/painted and protected.


Paint, dyes, and varnish
I use a multitude of materials to add color and little details. Watercolour, dyes, inks,  pastels, markers, etc… For each flower, there is a different technique.
Every flower is protected with a paper sealant to add extra protection against humidity and UV light. Always refer to the care instructions on how to look after your flowers.

Dried and Preserved Flora
I often include dried and preserved botanicals in my sculptures, which share similar care tips than paper flowers.
