Fixing Bent Stems and Misshapen Wires

Silk flower stems contain internal wire that can bend during shipping or storage. The good news is they are easy to straighten and reshape at home.

Gentle Straightening

Hold the stem firmly and slowly work the bend out with your fingers. Never yank, which can snap the wire inside.

Reshape the Bloom

If a flower head tilts, twist it gently at the neck until it faces the direction you want. The wired construction is designed for this.

Support Long Stems

For tall arrangements, add a clear floral stake or tuck the stem deeper into the vase to maintain an upright posture.

Prevent Future Bends

Store arrangements upright or boxed so weight does not crush the stems during the off-season.

Restore your arrangements with our quality silk flowers.
