Flower Preservation

Preserving flowers in resin is a beautiful way to capture the sentimental value of floral arrangements from significant events, such as weddings, anniversaries, and funerals. This process allows flowers to be preserved in a clear, durable medium, maintaining their beauty and significance for years to come.

 

The Process of Flower Preservation in Resin

1. Flower Selection & Drying

Flowers must be fully dried before being embedded in resin. Methods include air drying, silica gel drying, or pressing, depending on the flower type.

Silica gel is ideal for retaining the shape and vibrancy of fresh flowers, making it a preferred choice for preserving bouquets.

2. Resin Preparation & Pouring

Epoxy resin is mixed and poured into a mold of choice (e.g., spheres, blocks, coasters, or jewelry settings).

A thin initial layer is poured to create a base, then flowers are carefully arranged before adding additional resin layers

3. Curing & Finishing

Resin requires 24-72 hours to cure fully.

Once hardened, the piece can be sanded and polished to remove imperfections, ensuring a smooth and glossy finish.
