How do I care for my resin items?
This is one of the most important things you can do to ensure that your jewelry or items will be enjoyed for years! Remove before showering or bathing - With jewelry, I encourage you to remove before washing your hands, showering, bathing, or swimming. Avoid exposure to UV and heat: do not store your jewelry or items in direct sunlight or wear it for a prolonged time in the sun. Heat can cause your resin to become weak. Avoid chemicals: Always remove your jewelry when working with any type of harsh soaps, hand sanitizer, perfume, creams, or cleaning products. Exposure to chemicals may dull your piece or rough the surface of your piece. Avoid placing food items on resin.

What are your metal pieces made of? Will they tarnish? How long do they last?
All of our pieces are either .925 sterling silver, rose gold dipped, or gold dipped. Sterling silver can tarnish - it is 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper. The addition of the copper is what can cause the metal to tarnish. The reason that the copper is added is to provide a stronger, longer lasting piece of jewelry. Pure silver is very soft and not an ideal candidate for a long lasting piece of jewelry. The lifespan of plating depends on many factors such as body chemistry, amount of wear, and if you follow the care instructions. The pieces that are plated will wear down to expose the sterling silver underneath. You are paying for the sterling silver core and not the plating. In most cases, wear will happen where there is the most amount of body contact. This is an inherent risk taken when ordering any plated item.
To prevent tarnishing, WEAR YOUR JEWELRY! With regular wear your piece will not accumulate tarnish as quickly. When you are not wearing your jewelry you should store it in an airtight container and out of sunlight. You should also avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and perfumes. It is also ideal to take item off when shower, swimming or submerging in water. The easiest and safest way to remove any tarnish is to use a polishing cloth. These are very soft pieces of cloth that with a little elbow grease can remove tarnish from your piece and keep it looking beautiful for years!

Will my wooden flowers fade or wilt?
Wooden flowers will not wilt at all - they are a thin wood material that is formed to the shape of the flower. I do use wood softener to make the petals feel velvety soft like real flowers. The are pliable, but should not be sat on or thrown around too hard, as damage can potentially happen. The colors will stay vibrant and beautiful for years - to avoid any discoloration I do suggest keeping them out of direct prolonged sunlight. Wooden flowers are a beautiful and great addition to any event or as house décor for anyone with allergies. Wooden flowers also alleviate the stress of the constant purchase of fresh flowers that die so quickly.
