📐 Flower Math: Finding Your Perfect Match

We want your vase to look like it stepped out of a magazine, not like it’s waiting for a bus! To help you get that "just right" look, here’s our quick cheat sheet for a standard 10cm (4-inch) vase opening:

The "How Many Stems?" Cheat Sheet

Flower Size	Examples	The "Cosfea" Formula	Suggested Quantity (for 10cm vase opening)
Large & Full	Peonies, Sunflowers, Hydrangeas	Vase opening * 0.5	4-7 stems
Medium	Roses	Vase opening * 1	10-12 stems
Small	Ranunculus, Poppies	Vase opening * 2	20 stems

 

💡 A Few Pro-Tips for Your Masterpiece:

• Single Stems Only: Our "math" above is based on single-headed flowers. If you’ve fallen for one of our multi-headed beauties, you might need even fewer to fill your space!

• The "Goldilocks" Rule: These suggestions are just a starting point—your personal style is the real boss! If your vase looks a little crowded, feel free to invite 1–2 stems to leave the party. If it looks a bit lonely, add a couple more until it feels "just right."

• Take it Outside: Planning to brighten up your patio or garden? There are no rules in the great outdoors! Feel free to mix, match, and go as wild as you like.

• Need a Visual? We’ve styled every product to show off its best side. Take a peek at our product images for some "IRL" (in real life) inspiration on how these blooms look in action.

💐 Welcome Home! Giving Your Blooms Their Best Look

Every COSFEA flower has its own little personality. Just like us, they might need a moment to freshen up after their journey from our Toronto nest to your doorstep. Here’s how to help them settle in:

1. Safety First (Handle with Care!)

We want your flower-arranging experience to be pure joy. Since our stems contain flexible wire hearts for easy shaping, a tiny wire may occasionally peek out. We recommend wearing your favorite gardening gloves while gently fluffing your bouquet—it’s the best way to keep your hands scratch-free and happy!

2. The "Snap-on" Surprise

If a leaf or petal decides to "jump ship" during the journey, don’t panic! Many of our blooms are designed with removable and adjustable parts. If you see a loose leaf, simply snap it back onto the stem—it’s not broken, it’s just looking for its place!

3. A Little Spa Treatment

• Give them a "Blow-out": If your flowers arrive looking a little flattened from their travel box, a hairdryer on low heat is a total game-changer. Gently warm the petals while shaping them with your hands to bring back their full, lush volume.

• Fresh Air: New flowers may have a faint "just-out-of-the-factory" smell. Simply let them breathe in a well-ventilated room for 1–2 days, and the scent will fade away.

• Dusting: To keep them glowing, a quick wipe with a soft cloth or a cool blast from a hairdryer will keep the dust bunnies away.

4. Perfectly Imperfect

Each COSFEA piece is handcrafted, meaning no two stems are exactly alike. Slight variations in shape or a tiny color shift aren't defects—they are the unique fingerprints of artisanal work. If you notice a small detail that looks different from the photo, remember it’s just your flower’s personal flair!

5. Flexible Stems

Our stems are built for "Floral Yoga." Feel free to bend or trim them to fit your favorite vase perfectly. They are designed to be flexible, so don't be afraid to give them a little twist to get that perfect angle.
