How to press flowers -let’s build some ephemera

Hi everyone. Thank you for visiting my channel today. I hope your all doing well. Today I wanted to share my process of how I press my flowers and how I use them to make some ephemera.
I hope that this inspires you to walk around and see all the possibilities outside and all the beauty that we can preserve
Happy creating
Cheers

"Creative people have such a big mess on their desk." I'm relieved that I am not the only one. Thank you! :) The photocopied masterboard is wonderful.

Iso enjoyed your video! Thank you for sharing what you do with pressed flowers! beautiful, now i’ve got more ways to use mine! 😊

[@janeenrodgers5993]

This information will come in handy this spring. I have never thought of photocopying my favorite pages. Now, I have another option to consider.

I really need to add this to my list of things to try!

[@thecreativecove6898]

Please do. It is just so fun to collect them and see how they turn out. Have fun! 😊

Again so much enjoyed your video. I love collecting bits on my walks and will try this flower pressing idea. I use a book But I like your process and great tips for storing. Have a great weekend.

[@thecreativecove6898]

Thank you. I like to see what I have on hand so this storage works well. However I am finding now that my collection has grown I need a bigger book and pockets. lol

[@celinecorouge6975]

Magnifique idée. Merci pour le partage

[@thecreativecove6898]

Bienvenue et merci. 😊

Looking forward to trying this before the summer ends and turns to fall! Do you keep using the same watercolor paper over and over? I am excited to laminate them and save them for my nature junk journal. Thank you so much! ❤

[@patriciamoore7527]

I like the ides of photocopying. Also, I didn't realize there were small laminating sheets for business cards. I have been buying the 4x6 size. Thanks!

[@thecreativecove6898]

Thank you for watching. I love to reuse the photocopies in all kinds of different ways. 😊

[@amymontgomery8039]

Thanks for sharing. What brand punch are you using to make the tag top?

[@janiceerbstoesser84]

What laminator do you use to laminate your flowers. Thank you.

[@karenholst8306]

👍👍👍💕💕💕🇩🇰

[@cyndyjones4580]

For the geraniums, do you pick them fresh or sort of dried out already? And does it make a difference? Thank you!!!

[@thecreativecove6898]

I pick them fresh for the best colour results. However try avoid picking them in the morning or when they might have dew or rain. You want to avoid as much moisture as possible. I was really pleased with these ones. I wish I had more colours to press. Lol

[@j.kevin-jillboyd5830]

What size is this flower press...8x6?

[@thecreativecove6898]

If I remember correctly it is 4.5 x 6”
