Flowers Pressed in my GREAT Flower Press

These are winter flowers from my greenhouse. Just think what I can press when I get hundreds of summer flowers ready to press...A GREAT VARITY TO CHOSE FROM!!!

I think I may also do one or two butterflies....BUT never bugs...too messy.

Any other ideas on what I can press?
To my daughter-in-laws or anyone else...do you want some framed artwork of my pressed flowers?

I can tell this is going to be one of many great hobbies....try it...you might like it.

Really pretty! It's a great way to add a little feeling of summer time to this really long, cold winter!

Those are just beautiful! A selection of fall leaves would be pretty too.

You did a wonderful job pressing and designing with your greenhouse 'treasures'! Other things that press really well are: larkspur, cosmos, alyssum, pansies, etc,etc.

Just want you to see the hummingbirds that I created out of pressed flowers/botanics. I have it on my blog. I just started it so I am not sure of all the 'etiquette' of the thing. Is it ok to post a link to my blog site here??
