DIY Hack Fluffing Flat Silk Roses

Hi Everyone!

Welcome back to another DIY hack. This neat trick is one of my favorite tips for working with silk flowers, particularly roses. Sometimes the flowers we get to craft with are smushed, flat, or misshapen. Did you know you can quickly fluff and fix all those issues with a quick blast from your hair dryer?

It’s true! And it’s one of the best hacks out there! Med/High heat pointed directly into the bloom to spread the petals out, while gently reshaping the bud with your fingers will give you a gorgeous full bloom that holds its shape. Be careful to constantly be moving the hairdryer to disperse the heat. But otherwise there isn’t really any difficult trick to this one.

I really love the white roses I ordered for this video. They came in a 10 pack from Amazon. I’ll link them just below if you’re interested in these particular flowers.

Thanks for watching and I’ll see you here soon!

I recently bought, on line, 6 garlands with tiny roses throughout. When they arrived all the roses were smashed as were many of the leaves of the garland. I thought to myself, I wish I could iron them but that would take forever, and then I thought, why don't I throw one in the dryer on high heat for 5 minutes to see if that could help. After the 5 minute mark, I was happy to discover that they weren't melting so I left them in for another 10 minutes. Once the 10 minutes were up, they were looking a lot better, I was amazed. So, I gave them another 5 minutes and they were perfect. I thought I was a genius. LoL!!!! :)))

Really cool and useful trick! I have many in storage for extended times, so this squashing becomes an issue! Now I know what to do to revive them 😃. Really appreciate you sharing this one! 💖

I often shy away from working with silk flowers because of the smashed bulbs, but this is a great hack! Thank you so much!

[strangerdaysss]

great tips and tricks. do you have any techniques for the fake floral stem leaves? TIA

[inmayrataveraseventplannin]

Thank you so much !!! I did it and it work perfectly 💕🥰

[lisathornton]

Thanks! Just received some silk roses to craft all smushed up but very pretty silk petals just like yours. This hack makes sense, and will try it! including low heat blow drying the crooked/creased leaves going each which way but the right way😂🍃 🌹🫶🏽🌹

Another reason I like to steam it is it doesn't catch on fire and it doesn't make as much noise as a dryer

[Michelle-qdgm]

Can you tell me pls were you got those flowers from they look lovely ?

[iLitAfuseiCantStop]

Does this work on cheaper artificial flowers like what you buy at Walmart?

Thanks for this. Good to know. Do you have hacks for the plastic branches on a eucalyptus Garland to fluff it up. The main stem is wired but all the little branches with leaves are plastic so the whole thing sits flat. I tried green wire but it shows through between the leaves. I need to put 2 garlands together. And would love to add another (3rd) with roses or flowers for color. Do you have any hacks please? Thank you

[mercedbermudez]

Does this work for any type of flower? Can I use this if I have to flatten my flowers for shipping?

[BethGo-pjzs]

I looked at your face the whole time. I thought I wanted to fluff flat silk roses 🤣🤣

[kathyriddle]

I steam mine. It's the same kind of steamer like you use to steam your clothes, what company did you get those silk flowers from?

[Pamela-vjmd]

What vender do you get your roses from?

[Anna-xriz]

Do they have to be silk or can I try on other artificial roses?
