Care Instructions
A few simple steps will keep your wreath fresh, fragrant, and beautiful all season long.
⚠ Never place a wreath between storm doors — the greenhouse effect will cook it within hours.
Wreath Care
Location
Wreaths thrive outdoors in cool air. If placing indoors, keep away from heat sources like radiators or fireplaces. Drier indoor air means you should mist your wreath with water every few days.
Dropping Needles
It's normal to see a small amount of "sprills" (loose needles) during the season. This is minimal and natural. If needle drop seems excessive, reach out to us for a replacement.
Drying
Balsam needles stay green and attached long after branches dry. This natural wintering process allows wreaths to look beautiful for months. Spritzing the back cut ends with water helps delay drying.
Refreshing the Scent
To revive the balsam aroma, gently crush a few needles or "fluff" the branches. This releases the essential oils. You can also lightly scrape the back of the branches with a fork.
