Method 1: Re-hydrating and Packaging
Re-hydrate your flowers: Start by cutting the stems and placing them in a vase of water for a few hours. This will help revitalize the blooms.
Prepare the packaging materials: Find a box that is approximately 1.5 times larger than your flowers. Fill the box with recycled grocery bags or tissue paper to create a cushioning layer.
Wrap the stems: Take the bouquet or stems out of the water and wrap a wet paper towel around the bottom. Then, wrap the towel-covered stems in a bag or Saran Wrap to keep them moist.
Place the flowers in the box: Gently lay your flowers inside the box on top of the cushioning material. Make sure they are arranged in a way that prevents them from moving around during transit.
Fill the remaining space: Fill any empty spaces in the box with more grocery bags or tissue paper to secure the flowers in place and prevent shifting.
Pack any keepsakes: If you have any keepsakes to include, place them in a bag and tape them to a paper with your name, phone number, and email address.
Ship your flowers: Take the securely packaged box to a UPS or FedEx location and choose overnight shipping to ensure the flowers reach us quickly and in good condition. Our shipping address is:

Method 2: Water Tube Packaging
Purchase water tubes: Buy a pack of 25 water tubes on Amazon. These tubes will help keep your flowers hydrated during transit.
Cut and place the stems: Trim your flower stems to around 6 inches in length. Fill each water tube with fresh water and place a single stem in each tube.
Prepare the packaging materials: Find a box that is approximately 1.5 times larger than your flowers. Fill the box with recycled grocery bags or tissue paper to create a cushioning layer.
Layer the flowers in the box: Softly lay the water tube-encased flowers inside the box. Layer the flowers and tubes, ensuring they are well-supported and won't move around during shipping.
Fill the remaining space: Fill any empty spaces in the box with more grocery bags or tissue paper to prevent shifting and provide additional cushioning.
Pack any keepsakes: If you have any keepsakes, place them in a bag and tape them to a paper with your name, phone number, and email address.
Ship your flowers: Take the well-packaged box to a UPS or FedEx location and choose overnight shipping for a swift and safe delivery.
Notify us: After shipping your flowers, send us a text message to 937-709-9117 to inform us that your package is on its way. This helps us keep track of your shipment.
