Sage Velvet Champagne Glittered Lined Magnolia – 20 Inch

The Story

The Sage Velvet Champagne Glittered Lined Magnolia opens one broad, layered bloom on a slim 20-inch brown stem. Its soft sage-green velvet petals are edged in a fine line of champagne-gold glitter, and a glittered gold center with fine gold stamens finishes the flower.

The muted sage keeps the bloom calm and wintry rather than bright, while the glitter edging catches lamplight and candlelight. It sits comfortably beside gold sparkle, cream blooms, and evergreen, so it works for holiday tables now and winter styling after the decorations come down.

Design Function

A focal flower that gives a winter or holiday arrangement one clear, broad bloom for the eye to land on.

On its own: Set one or three stems in a bud vase or slim cylinder so the velvet petals and glittered edges can be seen up close.
In a mix: Place the magnolia low and slightly forward as the focal bloom, then let finer glittered stems and greenery rise behind and around it.

The Faux Standard

This magnolia is about color and finish: the velvet gives the petals a soft, matte depth, and the champagne glitter outline draws each petal edge clearly from across a room. It is Standard Faux, styled as a decorative velvet bloom rather than a lifelike one, which makes it an easy way to bring a sage-and-gold palette into holiday florals.

How to Style It

Stem Count: One stem works as the focal bloom in a small mixed vase; use three stems for a fuller grouping or a standalone display. These are starting points; adjust for your vessel.

Vase Recommendation: Bud vases, slim cylinders, and narrow-neck or standard-opening vases keep the single stem upright and the bloom facing forward. Clear glass or ivory ceramic lets the sage color read clearly.

Arrangement Role: Use it as the focal flower. Set it slightly off-center and low, then build height behind it with finer glittered or evergreen stems.

Pairing Approach: Repeat the champagne-gold edging with fine glitter or tinsel stems so the gold reads as a deliberate thread through the arrangement.

Placement Idea: Dining tables, entry consoles, mantels, bedside tables, and holiday buffets where the glittered edges can be seen up close.

Quick Styling Formula: Gold Glittered Stem with Pearls - 29 Inch + Champagne Tinsel Pearl Stem - 34 Inch + Sage Velvet Champagne Glittered Lined Magnolia – 20 Inch = a sage, champagne, and gold holiday vase with one focal bloom and airy sparkle rising above it.

Set the tinsel stem at the back for height, fan the gold pearl stem to one side, then place the magnolia low in front so it anchors the sparkle.

Where It Works Best

• Winter and holiday arrangements in sage, champagne, gold, and cream
• Dining tables and holiday buffets
• Mantels and entry consoles
• Bud vases and small gift-table accents

Mel’s Styling Take

I’d use this magnolia when I want gold in an arrangement without everything turning yellow. The sage velvet calms the sparkle down, and that thin glitter line on each petal ties right into the glittered and pearl stems. One bloom low in front is usually all a vase needs.

Pairs Well With

• Gold Glittered Stem with Pearls - 29 Inch: Fine gold glittered branches with ivory pearl-like tips that repeat the magnolia’s glitter edging in a lighter, airier form.
• Champagne Tinsel Pearl Stem - 34 Inch: Tall champagne tinsel with pearl-like accents that adds height and feathery sparkle above the bloom.
• Gold Pearl Resin Branch with Glitter Spray - 33 Inch: A fuller gold glitter and pearl branch that builds a richer holiday cluster behind the magnolia.

Good to Know

Climate & Care Considerations

Display indoors, away from prolonged direct sunlight, excessive heat, steam, and damp conditions, which can dull velvet and loosen glitter.

Dust gently with a soft, dry brush or cool air on a low setting. Do not rinse, soak, or submerge, and avoid rubbing the glittered edges. Store in a dry box with tissue around the bloom so the petals are not crushed.

Care & Maintenance

You chose stems that last. Here’s how to make sure they do.

Faux florals are low maintenance, but not no maintenance. A little intentional care goes a long way toward keeping your stems looking the way they did the day they arrived.

Think of this page as your go-to resource. Bookmark it, come back to it, and use it whenever your arrangements need a refresh.

Every stem is chosen with intention — so it works in your home, not just in a vase.

First Things First: Know Your Stems

Not all faux florals are cared for the same way. True Bloom Floral carries three tiers, each with slightly different needs.

True Bloom stems
Our highest tier. Premium real touch stems with detailed surface coatings. Handle gently and keep completely dry.

Real Touch stems
Soft, natural-feeling stems. Clean gently using dry methods or a lightly damp cloth for spot cleaning.

Standard faux stems (including filler)
More forgiving. Can be cleaned with a damp cloth or mild soap solution when needed.

When in doubt, less is more. Gentle care works for every tier.

Everyday Care: The Four Habits That Matter

1. Dust regularly
Dust dulls color and texture over time. A quick dust every 1–2 weeks keeps stems looking fresh.

2. Keep out of direct sunlight
Bright rooms are fine, but prolonged direct sun will fade colors over time, especially deeper tones.

3. Avoid heat and humidity
Keep stems away from fireplaces, radiators, kitchens, and bathrooms. Heat and moisture can damage materials.

4. Reshape as needed
Real touch stems are flexible. Gently reshape petals or bend wired stems to create natural movement.

Cleaning Your Stems

True Bloom & Real Touch Stems

These require the most careful approach.

What works:

• Soft brush (makeup brush, paintbrush, microfiber cloth)
• Hair dryer on cool, low setting (held at least 12 inches away)
• Gentle shake outdoors
• Lightly damp cloth (Real Touch only, for spot cleaning)

What to avoid:

• Submerging in water
• Harsh cleaners or sprays
• Heat or warm air

Standard Faux & Filler Stems

More flexible and easier to clean.

What works:

• All dry cleaning methods above
• Damp cloth or gentle wipe
• Mild soap solution with cool water
• Salt or cornstarch method (shake in a bag to remove dust)

What to avoid:

• Soaking stems
• Aggressive scrubbing

Reflexing Your Stems

Reflexing is a professional floral technique that opens petals outward to create a fuller, more natural look.

Why reflex?

Stems are packed tightly for shipping. Reflexing opens them up, adds dimension, and transforms the overall look.

Best stems for reflexing:

• Roses
• Peonies
• Tulips
• Gladiolus

How to reflex:

• Work slowly with your fingertips
• Gently bend outer petals backward
• Warm petals slightly between your hands if needed
• Never force anything

A reflexed stem instantly looks more elevated and intentional.

Highly Pigmented Stems

Deep tones like reds, burgundies, and jewel shades may transfer color if pressed against light surfaces for extended periods.

This is normal for richly pigmented materials.

To prevent issues:

• Avoid prolonged contact with light fabrics or surfaces
• Wipe surfaces promptly if transfer occurs
• Give stems space when arranging

Storing Your Stems

How you store your stems matters just as much as how you display them.

• Store upright when possible
• Wrap loosely in tissue paper
• Use a supportive storage box
• Keep in a cool, dry, dark space
• Avoid overpacking

Giving stems space helps preserve their shape and structure.

A Note on Vases

Faux florals don’t create water stains or bacteria, but vase care still matters.

• Dust interiors regularly
• Wipe glass vases to remove smudges
• Use filler (stones or foam) to stabilize arrangements
• If adding water for aesthetics, keep real touch stems above the waterline

How Long Will My Stems Last?

With proper care, True Bloom and Real Touch stems typically last five years or more.

The three biggest factors that shorten their lifespan:

• Direct sunlight
• Dust buildup
• Poor storage

Avoid those, and your arrangements will stay beautiful for years.
