Frequently Asked Questions
Hi I I’d love to visit The Shop! Where are you located?
The Petal Peddler’s Shop is a workshop based in Milton, Massachusetts. Because The Shop focuses on fulfilling custom orders, there is no storefront; however, The Shop does occasionally “pop-up” at Massachusetts events. Please follow The Shop on social media for information about upcoming events!
How do I care for my flowers?
Unlike traditional floral creations, The Petal Peddler’s Shop’s flowers will never die or wilt. With proper care, your paper flowers will last a very long time! To avoid tearing and damage, The Shop’s flowers should always be handled with care. Displaying stemmed flowers in a vase is highly recommended. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Ink/paint may transfer to other surfaces. Paper is flammable. May contain small parts; keep away from young children (not a toy).
When should I place my order?
It depends on the size and complexity of the order, and the number of existing orders in any given month. Generally, production time averages:
I have paper I would like transformed into a rose. What is the process?
First, contact The Petal Peddler’s Shop to discuss your order. Once the details have been confirmed, you will be provided with The Shop’s P.O. Box, which is devoted to receiving client papers. You paper will be securely stored during the production period, and extra/leftover paper will be returned to you when the order has been completed, whenever possible.
I’m interested in a book page creation. Do I have to provide the book?
The Petal Peddler’s Shop has over 35+ books from which you may choose, including classic and popular titles. The inventory may change, so please contact The Shop for the most recent inventory. You are also welcome to provide your own book. Photocopies will not be accepted.
Can The Petal Peddler’s Shop create a rose using my favorite song?
The Shop uses classical sheet music (e.g. Mozart and Beethoven compositions) in the majority of its creations because it has the most notes per page, resulting in more detailed roses. If you would like a rose created from a specific song, you may buy the sheet music and send it to The Shop. Photocopies will not be accepted. Because popular music tends to have a lot of white space on the page, petal edging or full petal painting is highly recommended to add another dimension of detail to the rose.
Would you be able to transform a picture into a rose?
Because the creation process involves bending, folding, curling and cutting the paper, pictures typically appear more abstract when transformed into a rose. If your child draws a picture of a landscape, elements will be visible but the overall image will be altered. Photographs are not recommended for rose transformations.
Do I have to pay sales tax?
You only have to pay sales tax if your shipping address is located in Massachusetts.
What is the return policy?
Everything The Shop creates is made to order and considered final upon payment of the issued invoice. The Shop will only accept returns if your order is delivered as damaged. Please inspect all items at the time of receipt. In the event that your order arrives damaged, email ThePetalPeddlersShop@gmail.com immediately, and include pictures, if possible.
