Here at Flower Press Studios I love preserving wedding bouquets after the big day. It is always a privilege to work with the bride’s wedding flowers and make them into pressed flower art. The first step is to email a photo of the bridal bouquet to me at hello@flowerpressstudios.com. Prices begin at £150 for a 10 x 12 inch framed artwork.
Care and attention is taken with each flower to preserve it. Flowers are pressed between fine blotting paper and checked every few days. I have learnt over the years to keep a close eye on the flowers. Often changing the paper or the position of the flowers to keep them in optimum condition. Some colour flowers press better than others so I use the best preserved flowers to create the final bespoke artwork. I often feature the commissions on my instagram at www.instagram.com/flowerpressstudios
Yes you can press the flowers yourself but I know from experience you can get mixed results. At Flower Press Studios I can recolour flowers that may have faded and understand from 5 years experience how to preserve them for optimal results.
