Seasonal Tips

Event

Tip

Mother's Day

Create custom 'birth month flower' family pieces, grouping the birth flowers of children into one framed arrangement.

Wedding Season (Spring/Summer)

Market bouquet preservation services months in advance. Brides book these services well before their wedding dates.

Christmas

Offer small, lower-priced stocking stuffers like pressed flower ornaments, bookmarks, and keychains to drive high-volume sales.

Pro Tips

  1. Invest in a high-quality microwave flower press to dramatically speed up production time without losing color vibrancy.

  2. Use UV-resistant glass or UV-blocking acrylic spray to prevent the natural flowers from fading over time, and highlight this durability feature in your listing descriptions.

  3. Always include clear dimensions and a disclaimer that 'natural variations in flower color, shape, and size will occur' to set realistic buyer expectations and prevent returns.

What are the best practices for pressing flowers to ensure they don't fade and maintain their color for my art?

To minimize fading, press flowers quickly after harvesting using a traditional flower press or heavy books with absorbent paper like blotting paper or newspaper. Avoid direct sunlight during the drying process. Silica gel can also be used for faster drying and better color retention, especially for thicker flowers. Consider using UV-resistant resin or sealant for finished pieces to protect them from light exposure.
