Hospitals : Offer color and life 🌿 Fresh flowers are often prohibited in hospitals due to allergies and health risks. But there's nothing stopping you from giving paper flowers to brighten up the room of a loved one in the hospital. They're an ideal alternative to bring a little freshness and joy to an often sterile environment.
Katie tells us about her feelings during her recent hospitalization: “ I had an operation and spent more than three weeks in the hospital, in a not very cheerful room. One of my friends, to keep me company and bring nature into my room, gave me a hyacinth. They took it away very, very quickly for fear of bacteria. I saw my poor Hyacinth being locked in a garbage bag at the back of my closet and for me it was very, very hard. Hard because for me it brought color to my room and it represented a link with my friend. It was really very complicated for me to have those three weeks in that gray room . ”

Practical advice: How to care for your paper flowers 🧹
-
Dust Removal 💨 Paper flowers don't require much maintenance, but like any decoration, they can accumulate some dust over time. To clean them, simply blow gently on them or use a soft brush to remove the dust without damaging the delicate petals.
-
Adjusting the Stem Size 📏 The stems of the paper flowers are made of aluminum, making them easily adjustable. You can bend them to any shape you like. Feel free to experiment to find the perfect height depending on where you want to place them. You can, if you like, add sand or beans to the vase to raise them.

Choosing a suitable vase 🌷 To make your paper flowers stand out, it's important to choose the right vase. A vase with a narrow opening is ideal, as it will hold the stems in place. You can also opt for a pretty jar or vintage bottle for a more casual look. The choice of vase can really transform the entire decor!
