Uncovering the Beauty of Floral Rehydration 

An Interview with Hannah Tiffin, Creator Behind the Floral Rehydration Innovation ​
When hearing the words "floral rehydration," not too many people are able to describe and visualize this revolutionary hidden gemstone emerging in the world of preservations. Life-long florist Hannah Tiffin, founder of Hannah's Flowers in Midland, Mi, is the creator and mind behind the one-of-a-kind floral rehydration process.  When asked to describe floral rehydration, Hannah expresses that "floral rehydration is the complex process of submersion, cleaning, opening, rebuilding and re-drying of each flower before arranging them behind glass or in a resin keepsake."

When asked who floral rehydration is good for, Hannah illustrates that "Floral Preservation is good for anybody who has flowers from the past, that might be hanging out in a book, a box, a closet, or a drawer, the rehydration process is good for anybody who is a saver of florals."  She continued to explain that although it might be cool to put your bouquets or special flowers in boxes, over the years they eventually break down and turn into a fine mulch. "Floral rehydration is a great last step to ensuring that your special flowers really do last a life time." ​
Curious on if all flowers, no matter type or age, can be adequate candidates for rehydration? Hannah 's short answer is "yes." Although most saved flowers can be rehydrated, results are limited to the level of decay present with in each bloom. 
"Age really has nothing to do with if a flower is a good candidate or not."
​
Hannah's favorite rehydration story is from a few years ago. She received a bouquet that was kept in her client's dresser drawer since her wedding in 1978! Hannah recognized the bouquets mechanics to come from her family's florist that she spent time in when she was a girl. It was a bouquet that Hannah's Grandfather made almost 45 years earlier! This bouquet had really come full circle! Hannah was honored to restore it.
