FAQ

Are the flowers real? 

No, they are not real flowers; they just look real.

What are they made of?

The short answer is wood. The flowers have a foamy feel because they are made from the wood of a marshy plant called the Shola plant (also known as Indian cork or pith plant).

How do you paint them?

By hand, the rest is a trade secret. Shhhhhh.

How long does it take to make a bouquet?

It just depends on the flowers that are featured in the bouquet. Some flowers need special handling, or require more meticulous paint-brushing, and some have two or three paint colors. All of our bouquets, however, are made with love!

Do you do custom orders?

Not at this time. Currently, our business focuses on creating and producing gorgeous bouquets for our online store.

Do you do pop-ups?

Yes, we do a selective number of events and pop-ups. We love seeing our customers' faces light up when they see our beautiful flowers! It is a blessing to meet people who buy our bouquets face-to-face! If you are interested in having our bouquets for purchase at one of your events, please email flowersforlifenc@gmail.com .
