Step
01
✿ Cut 1/2”- 1” off the bottom ends of the flowers’ stems at a diagonal with sharp scissors. Pat the stems of the flowers dry.
​
✿ Remove any special attachments from your bouquet such as ribbons, family heirlooms, etc.
Step
02
✿ Loosely wrap your bouquet with tissue paper or packing paper in the same way you find flowers wrapped in a grocery store.
​
✿ DO NOT WRAP your bouquet with plastic, bubble wrap, or wet paper towels. This will cause your bouquet to mold!

Step
03
✿ Line the bottom of the box with crumpled packing paper/tissue paper.
​
✿ Place the wrapped bouquet in the center of the crumpled paper.
​
✿ Cover the rest of the box with more packing paper/tissue paper to help prevent the bouquet from shifting around during transit.
Step
04
✿ Seal the box with packing tape. Place a “FRAGILE” sticker on the box.
​
✿ Whether you or a relative/friend ships your flowers, LABEL THE BOX WITH THE FULL NAME THE ORDER WAS PLACED UNDER, THE ORDER NUMBER, AND A CALLBACK NUMBER!
