Caring for Your BrookeLynn's Home Decorative Glass Vase

BrookeLynn’s Home glass vases from Artistry in Bloom are beautiful, versatile pieces designed to elevate any space. Each vase is finished with a resin coating that enhances the artistry and creates a smooth, high-gloss look. With a little care, your vase will maintain its clarity, color, and shine for years to come.

General Care & Cleaning

  • Hand Wash Only (Recommended): For best results, we recommend gentle hand washing. Do not place resin-coated vases in the dishwasher, as high heat and harsh detergents can dull, soften, or damage the resin finish.
  • Warm Water & Mild Soap: Use warm water and a small amount of mild, non-abrasive dish soap.
  • Soft Cloth or Sponge: Gently clean the exterior and interior with a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge. Avoid harsh scrubbers, abrasive materials, or gritty cleaners, which can scratch the resin coating and reduce its gloss.
  • Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse completely with clean water to remove all soap residue.
  • Dry Immediately: To prevent water spots and keep the resin finish crystal-clear, dry immediately with a lint-free cloth (microfiber works best). For hard-to-reach interiors, use a soft bottle brush or allow the vase to air dry upside down on a drying rack.
  • Removing Water Spots / Mineral Deposits: If needed, use a gentle solution of equal parts white vinegar and water. Apply briefly, then wipe with a soft cloth or soft brush, rinse thoroughly, and dry immediately. Avoid prolonged soaking, which can stress the resin finish over time.

Handling & Storage

  • Handle with Care: Glass is fragile. Always handle your vase with two hands—especially when it’s full or being moved.
  • Avoid Extreme Temperature Changes: Sudden temperature shifts can stress both the glass and the resin coating. Do not pour boiling water into a cold vase, and do not rinse a warm vase in cold water.
  • Protect from Bumps & Knocks: Place your vase on a stable surface where it is unlikely to be bumped or tipped.
  • Storage: Store in a secure place where it won’t be easily damaged. If storing with other items, wrap in tissue paper or bubble wrap to protect the resin-coated surface from scratches.

Important Considerations

  • Not for Food Use (Unless Specified): Unless explicitly stated in the product description, our decorative vases are not intended for food or beverage use.
  • Candle Use: If using your vase as a hurricane or candle holder, ensure the flame is centered and kept away from the sides to prevent heat stress. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
  • Cleaning Floral Residue: For vases that frequently hold fresh flowers, a solution of warm water and a denture tablet can help remove stubborn residue and odors. Let it soak as needed, then rinse thoroughly and dry.

By following these simple care instructions, your BrookeLynn’s Home vase will remain a beautiful, lasting part of your home décor.
