How should I store these embellishments?

Troubleshooting

Carnations are misshapen upon arrival.

Gently reshape the petals by hand. Due to their delicate, handmade nature and transit, minor adjustments may be needed.

Wire stem is too long for the project.

Carefully trim the wire stem to the desired length using wire cutters or sharp scissors. Be cautious of sharp wire ends.

Color appears different from the product image.

Computer monitor settings can affect color perception. The actual color is a medium pink, as described.

Embellishments do not adhere well.

Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Use appropriate adhesives for papercrafts, such as craft glue, double-sided tape, or a hot glue gun (use sparingly and at a low temperature to avoid damaging the petals).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The carnations come ready to use with a pre-attached green wire stem. Simply remove them from the packaging and decide on your attachment method.

Compatibility: These embellishments are primarily designed for papercrafts, including card making, scrapbooking, and general decorative uses. They are compatible with most paper types, cardstock, foam board, and other lightweight craft materials. The wire stem can also be used to attach them to fabric or ribbon, though they are not intended for heavy-duty applications.

Care: To maintain their appearance, keep the carnations away from moisture, direct sunlight, and excessive heat, as these conditions can cause fading or damage to the paper petals. Store them in their original packaging or a suitable craft container to prevent crushing or dust accumulation. Spot clean gently with a dry brush if needed.
