Beautiful fresh flowers are the perfect accent to brighten up any room, but all too often, they don’t last as long as you want them to. The good news is, with the right approach, you can keep your fresh flowers looking beautiful for longer than you might have expected! Here are some of my top tips to help you do just that!
1) Change the water every 2-3 days
Change the water every 2-3 days. The water in your vase should be changed every two or three days. This will ensure that the flowers are always fresh and beautiful looking. You can also use a cleaning company or a cleaning service to come out and clean the vases for you on a regular basis, which will keep them looking spectacular.
2) Trim the stems for fresh flowers
Trim the stems before you put them in water. This will help prevent the leaves from getting waterlogged and decaying faster than they would naturally.
For more thorough cleaning, have your flowers cleaned by a professional company like S&G Cleaning Services.
3) Don’t place flowers in direct sunlight
Stay away from placing flowers in direct sunlight, which will damage them. If you need to leave the room for an extended period of time, put them in the fridge and then back on your countertop when you return. Have a professional cleaning company come clean your home once a month. Clean up any spills as soon as they happen, so they don’t have time to dry and stain the surfaces where you store your flowers.
4) Try a flower preservative
If you have a lot of flowers in your home and want them to last longer, it’s worth spending a few bucks on a flower preservative from your local grocery store. You can also call up a cleaning company and ask for their recommendations on how best to clean your flowers.
5) Use a clean vase
One way to keep your fresh flowers looking beautiful is to clean the vase every couple of days. Try using a cleaning service like S&G Cleaning for this!
6) Keep the flowers away from curious kids
Keeping the flowers away from curious kids is one way to keep them looking amazing. You can also try not putting too many flowers in a vase, adding water every day, and placing the flower vase in a safe place. This will prevent curious children from accidentally knocking the vase.
