I’ve been working on a lot of new pressed flower pictures this week. They will be ready on my Etsy site and this website shortly. A lot have been inspired by the fragrant lavender I grew in my garden last year. Such a calming and restorative flower with so many uses.
Pressing flowers is such a lovely memento. I recently read about a lady who has kept the flowers Elton John gave her many years ago which she is finally selling along with lots of her other memorabilia. Just goes to show by pressing a flower you are holding onto a memory https://hansonsauctioneers.co.uk/elton-john-superfan-to-part-with-flowers-he-gave-her-when-she-was-sweet-16-in-1976
I’m privileged to be trusted with people’s special flowers and always love seeing the look on their face when I give them their final pressed flower artwork whether this is from their wedding bouquet or from any other flowers that have a significant meaning to them.
