Time for a Change!

 

I have always used the Pressed Garden Blog to showcase

my Floral Preservation Art.

In the days when I had no technical skill to post new pics

on my website, this blog was used as an on-going gallery.

 

 My new-ish website has a Gallery that I can easily

upload new pics, so my Blog is no longer needed

for this purpose.

So, it is time for a change! I've always loved writing,

although I have gotten very VERY rusty!

I am changing the direction of the blog by writing

articles that interest, educate, inform and inspire!

 

My target audience will be floral preservation artists, 

pressed flower enthusiasts,

DIY'ers, as well as brides and others that

are interested in having their own flowers

professionally preserved!

 

So, check back in to see how my blog evolves and never

hesitate to ask questions or make suggestions

on what you would like for me to write about!   

Thank you! It is always a pleasure to

preserve your flowers!

Andreas Boho Bouquet

I love the deep, rich, moody tones in this bouquet.

This is Angela from Berkley, CA

 King Protea, Red Heart Roses, Pink Garden Roses,

Burgundy Dahlias, Dark Purple Ranunculus,

Wedding Protea, Scabiosa, Olive Leaves,

Bay Leaves and a touch of Silver Dollar Eucalyptus

in this gorgeous bridal bouquet!

 Andrea chose to have her pressed bouquet mounted on a white

background, which I think makes it POP!

The frame is an 8x10" Walnut.

Hi Annie! The art arrived early this week and it is beautiful!! 

You did an amazing job. Thank you so much!
