Announcement
We Do Not take any type of cancellations*** We will work with you as far as needing a delay in shipping or exchange for another item before shipped.
My husband Ron Kessler & I Teresa Kessler are proud to be a small family-owned business so please allow 24-48 hours to process your orders once placed.
Damaged items, we will need photos of the entire contents upon arrival to issue refunds. For some items, we may ask to have it returned to us for inspection before we refund. Some returns may also incur a 15% restocking fee if there is nothing wrong with the items.
Freeze dried Candy products may have a little bit of dust in the bottom of the bag. This is natural. We do our best in packaging all so no breakage. Sometimes the post office gets really rough with the boxes. Please send photos of damaged box and damaged product asap so we can file a claim.
+++++NATURALLY DRIED & PRESERVED ITEMS+++++
Please be aware that naturally dried & preserved items from floral to moss do have a scent. To some it is a lovely, sweet fragrance. To others it is a more unpleasant odor. Please take this into consideration before purchasing! Buy samples if you need to first.
Our new preserved moss that we do takes longer at times to manufacture because of rain that delays our gather/dry/preserve process. So, the dates to ship these items again may be later and will reflect on the ship by date.

+++++Gluing moss to large walls/frames+++++
You can use hot glue...but for larger sections and large frames Floor tile adhesive is great to use.... apply to each moss section and wait about 30-45 minutes to dry then attach to your board.
My preserved moss is just that...all preserved and will stay that way for years WHEN cared for the right way. DO NOT put preserved moss outside as it will fade and loose the softness. DO NOT water this moss ever. Reindeer moss can be affected by humidity so at times may appear/feel more dry. Remember though that ALL things do fade over time when left in direct sunlight or left for long exposure to outside elements like rain etc.
Here are useful tips to get you started designing with Dried flowers.
Opening Dried and Preserved Roses
When working with dried roses, keep a tea kettle of water in your design area for steaming. Hold rose head in steam for a few seconds. Then, blow directly into blossom. The rose will open to about three times the dried size. Shape the petals with your fingers.
Using Pods and Sticks
When using hot melt glue with pods or glossy finish sticks, first scrape or sand the surface of the material. Roughening the surface and removing the slick finish makes the glue adhere securely. Scrape or break cinnamon sticks to release the fragrance.
Bunching Small Flowers
For design labor efficiency, reduce the number of insertions in a dried arrangement by bunching smaller flowers and materials into clusters.
The Wire Pick Method
Group the materials in your fingers. Place a wired wooden pick alongside the materials and attach with the wire. Sometimes, taping around the picked materials forms a firmer grouping for inserting into a design.
Reconditioning Natural Flowers
Enhance the beauty of most dried flowers by lightly moistening them with water from a spritzer, or by steaming with a clothes steamer. Use this conditioning process just prior to designing. The materials will be more pliable and naturally shaped.
Misting
Misting enhances garden dried flowers in similar fashion as steaming. Misting makes materials more pliable. Misting is a longer reconditioning process than steaming, whereby materials need to dry thoroughly before using.
Steaming
Use a steaming tea kettle or humidifier to recondition most garden dried flowers. Steaming fluffs fuller blossoms like Hydrangea and fillers like gyps, German Statice, Caspia, and Broom Bloom. Steaming relaxes Canella, enabling you to form it into desirable lines and curves. Steaming loosens natural Larkspur florets making the spikes fuller.
Displaying Dried and Preserved Materials
We recommend storing and displaying preserved and dried products in climate-controlled environments, out of direct sunlight and humidity. In some conditions, moisture may cause preserved materials to drip/bleed glycerin and dye. When using preserved foliage, protect furniture and linens by placing a covering between your arrangement and the surface it rests upon.
Caution! Avoid Moisture for Dyed and Preserved Foliage's
Be careful where you use dyed and preserved foliage. If placed in high humidity or in damp outside weather conditions, they might absorb enough moisture to drip, and the dye might run. Any dyed and preserved materials that have a tendency to bleed, such as Oak, Leatherleaf, Galax and Magnolia leaves, should not be exposed to moisture.
Storing Dried and Preserved Flowers
All natural dried materials/garden flowers have limited life. They are simply fresh materials with extended life. Keep unused dried flowers and grasses in plastic bags. This method of storage keeps them from getting too dry and brittle in a heated or air-conditioned room. Keep garden dried flowers in an atmosphere with consistent temperature and moisture. When garden dried flowers are in fluctuating conditions of temperature and humidity, they have a tendency to lose a little color each time there is an extreme change. Placing many dried flowers and grasses in the refrigerator does improve pliability. Do not store dried materials in refrigeration for more than a day or two as they might mold.

5 out of 5 starsThese are awesome!!! I went through the whole bag in 3 days! Really hit the nail on the head with the BLUE cotton candy flavor, it may just be me but blue and pink cotton candy do have distinct different flavors and this seller did so well with flavor and the texture is so soft and crunchy and melts in your mouth like dinner mints! Will be buying some more!!
