These include and are not limited to wedding bouquets, memorial flowers, births, events and more. 

The love and thought that is gifted with flowers in any occasion can be crafted into

Cloches, Crest, Wall Puffs, Frames & More. 

I am more then happy to dry your flowers in my studio , these can be dropped to me or sent via courier.

Other wise here is a quick guide on how to do it at home before they are sent to me.

Cut a few cm off the steams , hang flowers in a cool dark place .Flowers should be suspended upside down where the air can circulate around them . This process can take a while around 4 weeks or so , so be patient. Some flowers also dry better then others. You will know when they are dry , the flowers will feel crispy and paper like.

Dried flower care

Dried Flower Care 

Where should I display my dried arrangements & bunches?

Display dried arrangements indoors, out of direct light. Sunlight will cause colours to fade and make flowers brittle. Cloches will condensate in direct light. Avoid high humidity as this can cause flowers to become limp, brown and mouldy.

How do I clean my dried arrangements?

Using a hair dryer on cool, low setting lightly blow flowers to avoid damage.

How long will my dried flowers last?

I expect my arrangements to last a minimum of 6 months, if not years.

When looked after correctly they will last up to 4 years.

Please note it is normal for dried flowers to leech in high humidly.
