An Honest Guide to Floral Preservation
What Makes Pressed Floral Different From Other Preservation Companies
By Sarah Ebert, CEO & Founder
Not Every Method is the Same, Here is Ours.
There are a lot of ways to preserve flowers. You can press them in a book, buy a resin kit from a craft store, find a local hobbyist, or work with a professional preservation studio. All of these options exist, and all of them will produce a very different result.
We are not going to tell you that every path other than ours is the wrong one. What we are going to do is tell you exactly who we are, how we work, and what we believe, so that you can decide whether we're the right fit for what you're looking for.
We are devoted to Natural Preservation
At Pressed Floral, our entire process is built around the commitment to use only natural preservation methods. No harsh chemicals, no artificial dyes, no color correction. The flowers we return to you are your flowers, pressed and preserved in their most natural state.
We believe organic materials are beautiful precisely because they are organic. They change. They age. They develop character over time. A piece that leaves our shop is not trying to freeze your blooms in a single moment, it is giving them a form that will evolve gracefully alongside you and your memories, much like linen, leather, or any natural material you'd keep for a lifetime.
Some studios choose to color-correct their florals, artificially restoring pigment that is lost as the blooms oxidize. We understand why that choice is made, however, it is not something we offer. Our naturally preserved florals maintain their color without the need of dyes, a feat difficult for not only any individual, but even for other professionals.
We are highly-trained specialists and artists
Pressed Floral is a professional preservation studio. We operate as a structured team, with trained specialists working at each stage of the process. That distinction matters because it allows our preservationist and artists hone their crafts. Their focused expertise allows us to offer consistency, accountability, and a process that protects your investment from start to finish.
Your piece is handled by devoted artists, whether in preservation, floral design, or framing. Our experts are committed to bringing your vision to life, and with that, we offer unlimited revisions of your design style and frame details. Your frame will not be finalized until you are satisfied.
We have designed thousands of frames
We don't hide the fact that we work with a high volume of clients. Volume, when paired with a structured process and a trained team, means we have seen nearly every bloom type, arrangement style, and preservation challenge imaginable. Our quality standards have been pressure-tested. We know what works because we have done this thousands of times.
Our preservationists, designers, frame builders, and shipping experts brought to life the vision of thousands of people and their bouquets. Below you can scroll through a gallery of just a few of our recent beautiful pieces.
The Pressed Floral Process
From the day your blooms arrive to the day your frame finds its home on your wall, you're working with a team that stays connected.
Why We Do This the Way We Do
We have spent years refining this process, and we structured it the way we did for one reason: because your flowers deserve it.
Sentimental florals, whether from a wedding, a funeral, a birth, represent something that cannot be replaced. The way we approach floral preservation reflects that. This is not a side project. It is a fine art commission, built around your blooms, completed by trained professionals, and designed to last long enough to be passed down.
If that is what you are looking for, we would love to work with you.
