How can I hang my wreath?There are lots of wreath hangers out there - traditional metal over the door style, stick on hooks and even suction cup ones for UPVC doors. However, consider your door before purchasing your hanger especially if your door is UPVC. Some over the door metal ones can damage the weather proofing of UPVC doors. Personally, I prefer sticker ones that you can move. They usually take up to 2kg in weight and my wreaths generally weight approx 1kg so they are perfectly sturdy enough.

What do you use to build the wreaths?1. FLAT BACK WREATHS - these are a wire frame, hand wrapped in florist tape, then hand covered in jute to make a base that won't scratch a door or wall. They are light weight - designed for a front door or wall. 2. GRAPEVINE WREATHS - Traditional, rustic grapevine or twig base. The flowers are inserted through the wood and are heavier than Flat Back Wreaths. 3. GRAVE WREATHS - these are made using a traditional heavy duty plastic tray with an oasis insert. The insert is designed for artificial flowers and not to hold water. The tray and oasis are hand wrapped in jute before I add the florals. The florals are glued into place so they are not easily dislodged.

How is my wreath packaged for transit?Wreaths are carefully tied into their box using pipe cleaners so they don't move on their journey. They are wrapped in bubble wrap just for extra security. They are topped off with tissue paper and then taped securely in their posting box.

Are your flowers real?No, they are all artificial. I have carefully sourced all the florals and foliage and use the best quality silks, fabric, plastic and even wax. They look amazingly realistic but they will last for years. I often get people not realising that my flowers are not 'real' or fresh which is a huge compliment.

How will I care for my wreath?With a little bit of care your wreath will last for many years. I recommend that you protect them from the worst winter storms but they will withstand rainfall and winds - just not too much. If they get a little dusty, give them a shake or a quick blast with a hairdryer on a cool heat. They really are quite resilient. Similarly if the weather is really sub zero it is worth bringing your wreath inside. The glues are very resistant to damage but sometimes berries can pop. Likewise, if your wreath is going to be in a full sun position it is worth spraying it with a UV spray to help it avoid fading.
