The Essentials: Choosing and Preparing Dried Botanicals

Start with strawflower, statice, lunaria, craspedia, amaranth, and seed pods like poppy or lotus. For foliage, eucalyptus, ruscus, palm spears, and bunny tails add texture, movement, and reliable structure that ages gracefully.

The Essentials: Choosing and Preparing Dried Botanicals

Air-dry bunches upside down in a dark, ventilated space, press delicate blooms between absorbent paper, or use silica gel for fuller shapes. Glycerin-treatment keeps foliage supple, ideal for wreaths that must curve without cracking.

Styling Through the Seasons

Layer pastel larkspur, baby’s breath, and bleached ruscus for airy lightness. Add a few quail feathers or linen ribbon for gentle texture. Tell us your spring palette and we’ll suggest complementary stems.

Care, Cleaning, and Troubleshooting

Use a soft cosmetic brush, cool hairdryer on low, or a bulb blower to lift dust. Avoid damp cloths. Share your toughest dusting spot and we’ll propose a gentle method tailored to that surface.
