Sending Your Mementos
Please, DON’T SEND ANYTHING UNTIL you’ve submitted your order/order inquiry via email. I will email you a total along with mailing instructions. This will allow us to discuss exactly what you are looking for and also ensure I’m expecting to receive your package/envelope.
Flower Petals: I like to have at least 1-2 large or 3-4 small petals per flower type per piece. This not only provides plenty for your order but also some for your permanent file in case you lose or damage a piece. This is the minimum in a perfect world but really, I can make a single bead with just one rose petal so, don’t worry if you just have a few petals.
Drying/Preparing Your Flowers
Remove them from water as soon as possible after the event – do NOT refrigerate!!
Option 1 (AIRDRY) Spread out petals in a single layer on a flat surface out of direct sunlight until dry. You can create layers by using white sheet paper for separation. Alternatively, you can bunch/secure flowers at the stem and hang them upside down in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight until dry. Another way to to place flowers in an dry to nearly dry vase – once small bit of water evaporates the petals will begin to dry out.
Option 2 (MICROWAVE) Remove petals from the stem, blot dry to remove any excess moisture, and spread them in a single layer between two sheets of white paper. Microwave at 50% power for 30 seconds. If your microwave only has one power setting that is fine. Check and repeat in 30-second intervals until dry, usually not needing more than three intervals.
Option 3 (I DRY) If you’re uncomfortable or unable to dry your own flowers, I can do this for you. Simply remove petals from the stem, blot dry to remove any excess moisture, and spread them in a single layers between sheets of white paper or paper towel, or newsprint. Fold them to fit your envelope and send. Don’t worry, the paper/paper towel will cushion the petals and absorb moisture while they travel – whether in a box, envelope or padded envelope. Please DO NOT USE PLASTIC BAGS OR “ZIPLOCK” -style bags, or bubblewrap lined envelopes as this could possibly hold in damaging moisture that might wilt and brown your flowers.
Bracelet Sizing
How To Measure: If you have a flexible measuring tape – wrap it snugly around the wrist but not so tight as to cause indentations. If you don’t have a flexible measuring tape, wrap a 1″ diameter strip of paper around your wrist, mark it and measure against a rigid tape or ruler.
Small/Med – fits wrists measuring 5.5″ to just over 6 7/8″
Med/Large – fits wrists measuring over 6 7/8″ to just under 7.5″
