Michelle's 💐

This is one of the many occasions I say, pictures (and videos) don't do any justice. Her bouquet was stunning to begin with. Colourful and elegant.

I wish I had taken a photo of those delphiniums after pressing, because I couldn't get the same again this year.

The frame she chose is the size A3 option in double glass with a dark brown frame. I don't know about you, but I think the combo is amazing.

The bouquet was originally from the talented

Vanessa and Laura 🌻

This piece is very special for 2 reasons: one, how beautiful all the flowers turned out, and second, because there's not just one bouquet, but two bouquets together 🥹

They wanted to remember their special day by keeping the 2 bouquets together, and how right they were!

And to Vanessa and Laura, thank you so much for the trust 🫶🏽

✨ Just for reference: This is the double glass frame in size A2. And if you also want to preserve your wedding memories like this, just get in touch with me, 2025 bookings are open 👐🏽 ✨

For Emma ❤️‍🩹

She got in touch with me hoping to be able to save a few flowers to remember someone very special for her.

I said that of course that can be done too. And I believe that person wanted her to keep a good memory of them, considering how beutiful they turned out.

Thanks again for the trust 🥹

Ruby's 💐

I have a few stories with this bouquet.

First, she booked with me 30 minutes before getting married. I was explaining the process to her and feeling terrible about it 🙈 But hey! It all worked out well.

Second, when she brought the flowers to me and explained not many people agreed with their colour choice. But, I mean.... It's stunning. Her now husband likes purple, she likes yellow, and they chose that combination for the wedding bouquet.

And I tell you the same thing I said to her... It's your wedding and you should choose whatever you like and these are some of THE BEST colours to preserve your bouquet 🥹💚

✨ And just a friendly reminder that I have a few spaces available to preserve this year and the bookings open for 2025. Just pop me a message ✨

Michelle's 💐 transformation

I'm absolutely out of words with this one. And yeah, I'm biased because of the burgundy and a big glass frame. Could you ask for anything else?

Are we born creative or is it something we can practice?

I've been thinking about this a lot lately. Now I'm back on my old job (just covering shifts, don't worry, I'm still a full time artist), I realised what the problem was: I couldn't use my creativity for anything. I would get good ideas, but were always shut down.

I'm not complaining. This simply was my reality.

I've always been a very creative person. I come from a family of crafters, but I had that side of me hidden for the longest time. The result: getting bored and cranky at my jobs.

I firmly believe that creativity is something you can work on. The more you practice, the more you get. And it doesn't only mean being good at arts and crafts, it means thinking out of the box, finding solutions to problems too.

Do you think you're not creative? Think again 🙂

Btw, the photos are some projects I worked on lately:
My First Fairy Door (I bought the door, decorations were on me)
Prints of my artworks
A pressed flower workshop
Stimulating my tux cat with something different
Flower colour correction 🙈
And pottery painting

Michelle 💐

How pretty is this bouquet and how pretty it turned out? If it was for me I would keep putting more and more flowers until I run out of space.

And I'm so up less is more, but I meaaaan.

How much do you like it? Because I LOVE IT.

💐 to 🖼️🖼️

I said it before, but I'll say it again. Transforming your wedding flowers into a bespoke piece of art is very special, but transforming it into a set... That's another level.

The reason I love sets is because they give you the chance to add more flowers to the piece and /or to gift the other pieces to someone you love or appreciate. Although it's also okay to keep them all together.

What do you think? Which one is your favourite?

Last weekend I had the pleasure of being invited to this event organised by

The workshop, Together we grow, was a mix of yoga, guided by and the creation of a piece with pressed flowers (guided by me).

Humans, like flowers, thrive when we work together, to create community, when our environment we move ourselves in is healthy and supportive.

I want to say a big thank you to Lauren, for thinking of me to co-host this amazing event. And thanks to for organising.

And sorry for the lack of photos. We were busy enjoying and building an amazing community 😉🫶🏽

Bianca's 💐 transformation

When Bianca got in touch with me she knew she wanted to make the most out of her bouquet and her bridesmaids. She asked me for 11 pieces in total, being the main one the biggest size I do.

All the time it took me to finish these guys was worth it. They turned out so beautiful. I can't wait for her to receive it in the States.

What do you think? I'm in love with this one 😍

I don't know if you've noticed but...

My favourite frames for bridal bouquets are the double glass ones. I love the others too, don't get me wrong, but these ones...
I believe there's something very special about them.

Here's some recent and old jobs on glass. Enjoy! 🫶🏽

✨✨Remember that I have some spaces available for the rest of this year, and bookings for 2025 open too. Just send me a DM 💐✨✨

✨Fresh out of the press ✨

I always talk about reconstruction, but not all the flowers need it. Here are some examples of flowers that can be pressed like they are and how stunning they are!

Btw, if you like to learn how to press flowers like this (easy and beautiful) check out the Ebooks on my website (the link is in the bio). Or leave a comment and I send you the link 💚

Instagram vs. Reality 🙈

As I said in another post I usually don't get to see more than one finished frame at the same time. I like to wrap them up and have them ready to go.

But a couple of weeks ago I got lucky: 3 pieces going out, and new wedding flowers coming in. I had to take a photo.

Pro tip: never rush these things.

Trying to adjust myself for the photo I kicked one of the vases spilling water all over the floor. Somehow my reflexes were working that day and I moved the frames before the water reached them.

Swipe left to see the after 😂

Studio shenanigans I guess 🤷🏽‍♀️ Hahaha

It's your turn, tell me a similar story that has happened to you, I'd love to hear! 👇🏽🫶🏽🙈

It’s funny how things work sometimes.

At the beginning of this year I was committed to leave the weddings behind. By weddings I mean the bridal bouquet preservation and focus in a more artistic career. I wanted to teach flower pressing to others, and show the world how amazing this ‘medium’ is.

The truth is that I organised several in-person workshops that sparked no interest. No one was joining. My instagram page was really slow, nothing seemed to be working, posts, reels whatever. And I didn’t know what the problem could be.

One day, talking to my partner, I realised something. And that’s why I say it’s funny how things work sometimes. He literally said: ‘Keep the weddings going. Focus only on that and become the Queen of bouquet preservation’.

Really, that clicked. I followed his advice and started working hard on my weddings, in getting more, in improving the quality of the service in every angle I could think of and turning my weaknesses into strengths:

If I’m a people pleaser, I transform it into making the brides, grooms, the couples the happiest with their artworks, because, in the end, the frame is for you, you’re the ones that have to love it enough to hang it on a special place at home.

So yeah, a lot has changed, but please, keep your wedding flowers coming 🫶🏽🫶🏽

Wedding flower preservation - briefly explained.

That of course, includes bridal bouquets, centre pieces or loose flowers, because not all the weddings are the same 🫶🏽

You can find all the information on my website, but if you're unsure about anything, pop me a DM.

Don't let your wedding flowers end up in the 🗑️

Btw, the last slide is the BEST 😅

All these flowers have something

in common besides the last one.

Are you able to tell me what is it? 👇🏽
