How to care for your wood products

How to care for your wood products

Wood products are beautiful and timeless when cared for correctly. I am sure that most people know that wood and water are not a good match. A sealed wood product will withstand the elements better, however, it is always best to avoid getting wood wet as much as possible. Signs that will be on a covered porch will still need a little TLC since they may be exposed to moisture and sunlight, adding additional applications of spray sealer every year or two will keep them looking great!  I find that baby wipes work great for a gentle clean and compressed air is a great tool to get dust out of any nooks and crannies. If you notice that your item is drying out, butcher block oil, tung oil and Danish oil are all great products to add shine and luster back to your item. Make sure you read the label for proper application and to check if it is food safe.  If you have any questions please feel free to message me! Thank you for shopping at Sprouting Expressions!

Plant Obsessed!

Plant Obsessed!

I am so excited to announce my local partnership with Sunshine Nursery in Bluffton, SC. I have a garden themed collection of earrings available inside their Plantation Park Dr. location. I was a Master Gardener for Cumberland County, NC for many years and when I moved to Bluffton, I started planting before hanging curtains at my new house! Unfortunately, I had no idea of the high deer and armadillo population and they quickly ate and uprooted EVERYTHING that I had planted! Thanks to the help of Sunshine Nursery I finally have some beautiful blooms to enjoy this year and new inspiration for additional products! Stop by the Nursery to pick up some earrings and to chat about what will work in your landscape.
