Who knew moss could become one of the biggest stars in home décor? Once something you only noticed on forest walks, preserved moss is now popping up in beautiful wall art, centrepieces, and DIY projects everywhere. And the best part? It stays soft and green without asking for a single drop of water!
What Is Preserved Moss?
It is real moss that has been specially treated to keep its soft texture and beautiful colour. Scientists took real moss and swapped its water with glycerine. This freezes the moss in time. It stays soft and bright green forever. It doesn’t grow, it doesn’t need soil, and it definitely won’t complain if you forget to water it because you shouldn’t water it at all!
