This lead time does not include shipping time to you, even if an expedited shipping option is selected. NDI offers expedited shipping services for FedEx items, which can be selected at checkout. Common Carrier pieces cannot be expedited. Note that choosing an expedited shipping method does not change the manufacturing and/or processing time before your order can ship.

Can NDI silk plants or floral designs go outdoors?

Our products are made from a variety of fabrics, molded, dyed and finished by hand. Just as you would not put your sofa in an exposed area, the same holds true for your NDI Florals and Botanicals. All fabrics fade in direct sunlight, however, they may be used in a completely covered area with no direct sunlight, nor exposure to water from weather or otherwise. For NDI products to go outdoors, please view our OUTDOOR COLLECTION.
