Hope to see another video where you use these gorgeous flowers! I originally saw the idea where you used the Micro Fleur press and I ordered one and use it. Such a lovely craft preserving nature. Thank you.
I was so hoping you would show us how to press sunflowers! I have tried many times and they either mold or just look awful. Since a majority of my garden is sunflowers, I must figure this out. Thank you for all your helpful tips!
I will be launching the sunflower video in a few days. Yes, sunflowers can be difficult to press. The key is finding sunflowers with a minimum center. You can also look to purchase sterile sunflower seeds. These sunflowers do not produce pollen or seeds.
Just found your channel and I’m so thankful as I start my pressed flower journey! I’d love to hear your thoughts and tips on the differences between a traditional flower press like the one used here and a microwaveable one
Hi Sarah. I personally use the microwave press more than the traditional press. Some benefits include speed and the color of most flowers remain vivid. The traditional press is great for doing a lot of flowers all at once. With the traditional press you do have to check on the progress of the flowers to ensure that there is no mold. You also may have to change the paper. I did do a video on using the microwave press that you can take a look at.
Loved it! More More More!
