What are sola flowers made from?

Sola flowers are made from a marshy plant that grows in Asia - the best comparison would be balsa wood. These are NOT a hardwood product - they are very lightweight, moldable when wet (but can be smushed when wet also!), and beautiful. Each flower is handmade by a crafter, so each is a unique work of art! As such, each flower will vary slightly in appearance - some may have bark spots from being a tree (these are minimal, unless they are a bark flower!) and some may be shaped differently.

Are the flowers fragile?

Fragile, but forgiving! I treat my wood flowers with glycerin during the dyeing process to keep them feeling soft. Most "damage" to a flower can be fixed by simply fluffing or gently cutting or pulling a broken petal - I touch up prior to shipping, but due to the shipping process, you may need to gently fluff your flowers. I am always happy to help - just reach out! Please inspect your items within 48 hours of arrival to ensure quality control. To fluff flowers, using a handheld steamer works wonders! This keeps the flowers from becoming overly wet - and the steam gently fluffs petals back out! This can be done without a steamer, but if you have one - it's super simple! :)

A few of my flowers broke during shipping, but my order is otherwise wonderful. What can we do?

First - please let me know within 48 hours. :) I'm always trying to better myself and I appreciate when people contact me via messaging first so that I can help! I am usually able to help talk you through any touch ups that are needed and am always happy to provide a replacement flower if necessary. My goal is always to get your flowers to you in excellent condition, but due to the fragile nature there are sometimes casualties. :) I am always happy to help troubleshoot and appreciate the opportunity to do so! **Damage must be reported within 48 hours of arrival to ensure quality control and process and any new damage after replacements are sent must be reported within 72 hours. Not liable for damage caused during replacing flowers

What colors are available?

I custom dye each order and can typically get pretty close to most colors. Due to viewing from different screens, colors may vary slightly. As each batch of flowers is custom dyed, shades may vary slightly.

Do you send pictures of items as you put them together?

Yes. Most custom orders will get at least a few pictures - often during different stages of things being put together. I provide proofs free of charge - up to a certain point. Please don't abuse this policy - I want you to be happy with your items and I love showing you what you are getting. After 3 changes, proofs and changes will incur a $5+ charge. This policy is to help me keep things under control - obviously if something is not right with your order as I am working on it, I am going to fix it for you! If your order is not custom, I do not send photos.

How do you ship these fragile items?

I use double wall boxes for most bouquet orders - especially those that are traveling a long ways. I will -always- recommend using priority shipping to get your items to you as quickly and with as little human touch as possible. Each box is packed as carefully as possible - in order to keep things from shifting around, I do have to pack things somewhat tightly, which may cause a little flattening. Babies breath will need to be fluffed after your order arrives - and in some cases I include extra, just in case. To give your bouquets the room they need to stretch out and prevent any flat spots, please remove them from all packaging as soon as possible and store them upright in an vase or jar until your event date.

Do you take rush orders?

Yes - I do! I love being able to help out when I can! However, rush orders cannot be cancelled once placed, so please keep this is mind when purchasing and planning.

Currently, I measure by diameter and in inches. I typically have a 5 inch, 7 inch, and 9-10 inch size available for most styles. I am happy to send pictures to show each size if you'd like - I'm working on getting a listing up with sizing. :) I can also do custom sizes up to 12 inches - just message me to discuss! I recommend an 8 inch or larger for brides as this size gives more freedom to include larger, focal flowers and would be a medium size. Most of the brides I've worked with have done a 10 inch diameter for themselves and 7's for bridesmaids. You are welcome to choose whichever size works best for you, but please ensure you understand sizing prior to purchasing.

What order do you do orders in?

How soon I will get to your order depends on a few different factors. If you are ordering a custom item, you likely have already spoken with me and I know the date you need your item by. I work through orders by date required/requested. If you order and do not let me know when you need it or have a certain date you'd like it by, I sneak it into my schedule where it will fit - this is why my processing times vary greatly. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have a question about my timeline - I do my best to accommodate every request.

When you receive your items, I recommend carefully unwrapping and removing each item from the box. Bouquets do best if stored upright in a vase/container to prevent any flat spots from occurring. I am happy to give tips on "fluffing" any flowers that may seem to be a little smushed from shipping! A little bit of water and gentle repositioning does wonders. :)

A bit smaller than I expected but otherwise absolutely beautiful!

Rachel Apr 3, 2025

Response from Afton Stout

Thank you for your review, Rachel! I appreciate you! I just want to confirm that I reached out to Rachel and the boutonniere was 2 inches in diameter - as listed. I completely understand not being able to picture a listed size in your head - although, I wouldn't blame the seller when the size is listed. Best wishes to you and yours! :) Please reach out if you are having issues picturing the size of an item - I am always happy to help to make sure things are as you'd like. :D
