How to Make Your DIY Flower Bouquets Last Longer

DIY flower bouquets add a lasting touch of beauty to any space, and Robotime’s exquisite wooden floral kits take that longevity to the next level. Unlike fresh flowers that fade within days, these meticulously crafted wooden bouquets maintain their charm and enchanting effect indefinitely.

But just like real floral arrangements, they deserve proper care to keep them looking vibrant and pristine for years.

Here’s how to ensure your DIY flower bouquets stay as stunning as the day you assembled them.

Keep Them Dust-Free

Dust can dull the vibrant colors and fine details of your bouquet. Use a soft brush, microfiber cloth, or a gentle air blower to remove any dust buildup. For intricate designs, a small paintbrush or makeup brush works wonders to reach delicate nooks and crevices. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners, as the wood material can be sensitive to moisture.

If you prefer a more permanent dust-free display, consider placing your bouquet inside Robotime's storage display box to protect it from airborne particles while still showcasing its beauty.

Avoid Direct Sunlight

While Robotime’s wooden flower bouquets are made with high-quality, durable materials, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause colors to fade over time. Keep your bouquet in a well-lit but shaded area to preserve its natural beauty and prevent any discoloration. These are spaces with plenty of ambient lighting such as near a window where sunlight is diffused by curtains, bookshelves, or countertops brightened by overall room lighting.

Store in a Stable Environment

Wooden materials can be affected by extreme temperature changes and humidity levels. Place your bouquet in a room at moderate temperature. Avoid damp areas like bathrooms or kitchens, where moisture could lead to slight warping. If your area has high humidity, consider using a dehumidifier to maintain ideal conditions.

Handle with Care

Though Robotime’s DIY flower kits are designed for durability, gentle handling is key to preventing accidental damage. When moving or rearranging your bouquet, lift it carefully from the base rather than grabbing individual petals or stems. If you need to transport it, consider wrapping it lightly in tissue paper to protect the delicate pieces.

Enhance with a Protective Finish

For an extra layer of protection, consider applying a light coat of clear matte sealant spray. This can help preserve the colors and add a slight resistance to dust and minor stains. Make sure to use a non-glossy finish to maintain the natural aesthetic of the wooden petals and leaves.

Refresh and Rearrange

One of the best things about DIY flower bouquets is their flexibility. You can refresh their look by rearranging the position of the blooms, gently adjusting the stems, or incorporating them into different vases and settings.

Experiment with combining multiple Robotime floral kits to create unique, seasonal arrangements that bring fresh energy to your space. Try incorporating the Rowood Wooden Bloom Box, ROKR White Camellia, or Rowood Wooden Flower Basket for a stunning, layered effect.

Special Care for Motorized Kits

If you own motorized kits like the Blooming Bouquet Box, make sure it remains in top condition by periodically checking the motor’s function. Keep it free from dust and avoid overloading it with excessive handling. Models like these may need battery replacements or periodic charging as recommended in the instructions to keep delicate movements and lighting smooth and consistent.

Enhance Your Décor with Lasting Beauty

Flowers have a unique way of bringing warmth, beauty, and emotional depth into any space, whether they’re fresh or handcrafted. Robotime’s DIY wooden flower bouquets capture that same charm, offering lasting elegance without worrying about wilting. They’re more than mere decorations, they’re timeless expressions of joy, creativity, and heartfelt sentiment. With the right care, your floral creations will remain vibrant for years.
