Pressed Flowers

I was thinking of having a "do nothing" day, then I realized that I have ton of things to do before we off for the summer holiday. First and foremost, I should start on my pressed flowers art project. I've been delaying it long enough,  it's time to get it done.
I have quite a lot of pressed flowers which I keep in an air tight container for safe keeping.
Unlike last year (when I first started pressing flowers), this time I have more than enough supply.

Pressed bougainvillea.


Pressed lobelia, aren't they sweet?





This is how my desk looks when I'm working.




Pressed pansies.


It'll be a busy week for me. Till then...

  3. Wow, your pressed flowers are so beautiful. I remember collecting and pressing flowers and leaves as a child. I really loved it.
    I'm new to your blog, but it looks so lovely and interesting. I'm going to follow you ;-)

  5. Lovely idea; those pansies pressed are precious little faces--I love the pretty blue flowers too.
