FLOWER PRESS STUDIOS FEATURED IN THE SIMPLE THINGS MAGAZINE THIS MONTH

Always lovely to for Flower Press Studios to feature in a magazine and this month I’m in the Simple Things magazine discussing “My day In cups of tea”. Take a look behind the scenes and see the work that goes into preparing bespoke pressed flower artworks. The main artwork featured in the article is up on the website and for this week only I’m offering free postage to the UK.

If you haven’t checked out The Simple Things magazine before it’s a lovely independent mag which features a variety of articles from food to gardening and homes. www.instagram.com/thesimplethings

Also this week I’m starting to get lots of enquiries for pressed flower artworks made from wedding bouquets. If you are getting married this Summer don’t throw your flowers away bring them here to Flower Press Studios and let me make something beautiful for you to treasure. Just check out our instagram www.instagram.com/flowerpressstudios to see some of our recent reviews. Follow me for updates too as there are always lots of new pictures being made and new products launching.

Pressing flowers and holding onto memories

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.

Funeral flowers pressed

It’s always a privilege when a client brings their special flowers to me to press. A lot of care and attention is put into floral arrangements for important occasions by florists and they are important as a way to remember someone. Rather than disposing of such beautiful flowers its so nice to be able to press these special flowers into a keepsake for clients to keep.

Your special flowers

It’s been lovely since lockdown ended to work on some more commissioned artworks. Recently I’ve made a picture for a bride’s mother from the bridal bouquet and a larger picture for a bride. So lovely to preserve flowers in this way and to make something from flowers that would otherwise be thrown away

Preserving your wedding bouquet

Here at Flower Press Studios we love to create pressed flower, bespoke, original artworks from your flower bouquets whether it’s wedding flower bouquets or Valentine’s floral displays. Today I’m working on an artwork created from a single stem red rose given on Valentine’s day 2019. With a recent You Gov survey showing that spending it likely to be up 32% this year on this special day it makes sense that all that money doesn’t go to waste!

Don’t let those beautiful flowers end up in the bin. Bring them to our studios.

Imagine if your fiancé proposes this year what a lovely way to remember the day for years to come.
