Although I often talk about health and safety in my videos, please make sure you do your own research and take the relevant precautions to ensure that you are protecting your health. I am not responsible for anyone using resin and not taking the correct safety precautions. Resin is a chemical and as such should be always treated with respect and the manufacturers safety advice taken.

Thank you for this video. It's a big help for for me as I have a cannabis to do....P.S. you also reminded me I have cannabis leaves in a book I forgot about lol they should be dry now. It's been about 3 months lol oops 😬

@Microplancakes 3 года назад

#Flower I press my flowers basically the same way! I call it old school. I’ve never thought to seal them though! Thank you for this!

What a great video, I was gonna try and dry my own flowers, but didn’t know how to go about doing it. Now I know!!😉 you always put out a video right when I need to know something!!! 👍 😘 thanks all the way from Fayetteville North Carolina!!!!!

@chasinglife43 2 года назад

I love the way that you do things and the fact that you share every aspect of your process with us. I really appreciate you showing how you store your dried pressed flowers. I’ve been saving mine in little folded waxed paper bundles but I find that if I do not use them soon, they can degrade and or/ lose color. The tip on sealing them first and storing in the airtight container WITH the little silica bundle…. 🌟 PURE GENIUS SIR!🌟 I thank you again for sharing your amazing crafting sorcery.

@nataliefisk5839 3 года назад

This is going to help me out a lot. I had recently gotten a bouquet from my grandma for my 16th birthday and I wanted to preserve them for resin. But a lot of the videos had supplies listed that I had absolutely no idea what they were. But I don’t have the resin yet because I have never done it before and the flowers obviously won’t last til I can get the supplies in

@kammy8619 3 года назад

Have you ever pressed bleeding hearts? They’re so thick and full of moisture that it doesn’t seem possible.

@LunaAqua44 4 года назад

I pressed some flowers between two parchment lined cookies sheets and they molded. Help. What did I do wrong? We live in Colorado so the air is plenty dry

@kammy8619 3 года назад

Waxy parchment paper can’t soak up the flowers moisture. You need a paper that can absorb the moisture

@tiffanyatourjie2013 Год назад

How would you suggest pressing a bell flower(im assuming that is what it is) its purple and inside flower it has slight depth. Would you face it side ways or ...? Each time i tried it doesnt look good lol

@ArtsByJL Месяц назад

How many days minimum, loosing Color, and changing Color in resin,

@ikhaizam5053 3 года назад

Did all flower will remain their color? I wanna do my own press flower I'm afraid that the color will become faded.

@artemis8676 3 года назад

Do you think I can use Mod Podge spray sealer? Thank you

@mybrokenbum4505 4 года назад

Do you happen to know if you'd seal the flowers for paper crafts as well like cards and such?

@mybrokenbum4505 4 года назад

P.S. Just took a look at the rest of your videos, and you are seriously talented. I have never used resin nor do I think I'll be using it any time soon, but I subscribed anyway just to see what you come up with!

@ghtreasures 2 года назад

I have been using this exact method to dry my roses from my rose bushes, however they have all darkened to almost black and lost all their color. I have watched several videos on how to prevent this and preserve their color but haven't found anything helpful. Could I get some suggestions, please? Could it be because I press them face-up instead of face-down? Any tips would be appreciated! Thank you!

We used to press the fall leaves just between, what we call wax paper with an iron, many years ago.

@michellel564 2 года назад

@LISANE69 4 года назад

Do the flowers absolutely have to be sealed before putting in resin? Or can they be used without sealing?

@LISANE69 4 года назад

Thanks 👍

@angiebcraftsdesign 4 года назад

Very, Very cool! I just bought some dried flowers from eBay from a seller in another part of my state. I was wondering if it was something I should do myself. I'm not sure if I will, but you have removed the mystery that surrounded the process for me. Thank you ! 💐😄

@dinascontainers2806 3 года назад

This is not a good video. The entire project is free to do (even silica can be substituted with dry white rice, much safer and non toxic). I really hope no one went and bought a bunch on unnecessary stuff for a kids project.
