Book Reviews of Making and Using a Flower Press: Storey Country Wisdom Bulletin A-196 (Storey Country Wisdom Bulletin, a-196)

Book Review: Preserve the Beauty of your Garden
Summary: 5 Stars

Pressing and drying flowers is one of the oldest, simplest, and best ways to preserve the beauty of the garden. During the Victorian era, ladies transformed the pressing of flowers into an art form, creating personalized floral embellishments on stationery and other decorative household articles. The Victorians' passion for gardens and their love of elaborate decorative arts found the perfect outlet in flower pressing. Since then the art has continued to thrive, and with new methods and materials available, it continues to grow in simplicity and popularity.

Contents: Making Your Flower Press ~ Using the Flower Press ~ Pressing Flowers ~ What to Press ~ Simple Projects for Beginners ~ Intermediate Projects ~ Advanced Projects ~ Tips for Preserving Your Projects ~ Keeping an Album of Your Work ~ Selling Your Pressed-Flower Projects.
