Camellia soap flowers, with their round, richly petalled shape, are classic elements of handmade bouquets. The full bloom stands well on its own, and combined with other flowers it brings out their beauty too. The soap petals are scented and provide a long-lasting, non-wilting alternative to fresh cut flowers.
Characteristics of the Camellia Soap Flower
The red version of the camellia is a hand-shaped soap flower made from glycerin-based scented soap. A single head measures roughly 5x6.5 cm in diameter and weighs about 6 grams. The flower was originally sold by the piece to creative buyers, so the pack contains several heads of the same colour and shape, which you can freely combine with other colours and other soap flower types.
Use on Festive and Everyday Occasions
The medium pack is a good choice if you want to put together several arrangements at once. You can place the flowers in a decorative bowl or woven basket, or arrange them one by one in a larger vase. Combine them with green leaves, stems, dried decoration — the result keeps its beauty for a long time, because soap flowers do not wilt. If you like seasonal decor, the red colour goes well with natural materials, wood and linen.
Bouquet Making and Table Decor
The pack is enough to prepare flower arrangements for several gifts at once: a birthday box, a small Mother's Day bouquet, a wedding thank-you favour, or a decorative bloom for the top of a Christmas hamper. The heads arrive without stems, so you can attach them with glue or wire, or simply arrange them on a decorative surface. Stems and leaves are offered separately in the soap flower range.
How It Keeps Its Fragrance
Soap flowers keep their scent and colour longest when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not place them in a damp room or near a very warm window, because the glycerin base can soften over time. With careful storage, the unused petals will look just as fresh months later as on the day you opened the pack. Note that the petals are made for decorative use — they are not recommended for hand washing.
