    But how do you keep the colors or enhance them after? Sometimes they fade and I haven't found any paints or dyes that work... Thank you!

    • @meijergardens
      @meijergardens  3 роки тому +79

      One way to avoid fading is to keep the pressed flowers away from sunlight. The pigments will naturally fade as the plant dries, so we suggest selecting a vibrant bloom.

      I have read that several sealant types have uv the uv protection to help keep the flowers from fading. They also mean that moisture wouldn't be able to get at the flower once dried. If you look up sealing pressed flowers you can find comparisons on types, their advantages and disadvantages.

    • @meijergardens
      @meijergardens  3 роки тому +5

      If you are looking to add a whole pressed flower to homemade paper, we think that would work! You would prepare the paper as you normally would, lightly set it into the paper, and let everything dry. We have not tried this before - so if you do, we'd love to hear how it goes for you!

      @@meijergardens yes I had to be very careful inserting the flowers in the pulp without ruining the paper so it wouldn't have holes. It really helps placing them in the water right before taking the filter out with both pulp and flowers in it. Remember no to use big ones since it represents more weight. Thank you for your help

    Does the Parchment paper have to be a certain kind? I’m looking online and all I’m seeing is “pre-cut nonstick full parchment paper for baking, grilling, frying steaming”
    Is this the same parchment paper you’re using? Or is there a different kind I need to buy?
