DRYING YOUR BLOOMS

Once your flowers arrive, they will be carefully dried in silica; a process that takes anywhere from 3–5 weeks, depending on flower type.

While we do our best to preserve the natural look, some change is expected:

  • Red blooms may darken.
  • White blooms may take on a soft yellow or tan hue.
  • Orange flowers can take on a brown or purple hue.

DESIGNING YOUR KEEPSAKES

Once fully dried, you'll receive a few design options to choose from (for larger items; smaller items may not include design proofs, but we’ll guide you every step of the way)

Once your design is approved, a final invoice will be sent. Full payment is required before casting begins.

Please note: Processing times range from 1–3 months after final payment.

COLOR CORRECTION (OPTIONAL)

Sometimes flowers fade more than expected, but we’ve got you. Color correction is a careful process of enhancing or restoring the vibrancy of your dried blooms using gentle paints and techniques.

We’ll chat together to decide if this is the right fit for your piece.

CASTING IN RESIN

Once your design is finalized, the casting begins. This part of the process is layered, meticulous, and magical. Involving multiple pours of high-quality resin over several days or even weeks.

A note on bruising: Occasionally, small translucent spots/ bruises may appear on petals, which is a natural part of the flower’s life cycle, often invisible until placed in resin. Think of them as love taps from your big day.

FINAL TOUCHES

Once your piece has cured (typically 48–72 hours), we’ll finish it with care: sanding, top coating, polishing, and professional photos for your records.

Is This Process Right for You?

Important details to consider before booking:

You’ve read about the process and know what to expect, but here’s what’s important to keep in mind.

Resin preservation is a handmade art form. While the final piece is designed to be a stunning keepsake, minor imperfections are part of the beauty and uniqueness of each creation. 

These may include:

• Slight changes in flower color due to the preservation process

• Petal bruising, especially in delicate blooms

• Small air bubbles (while I take great care to reduce them, they are a natural part of resin art)

If you’re booking a grande design, you’re already allowing for more creative flexibility and space to showcase your flowers beautifully.
