Book Reviews of Pressed Flower Art: Tips, Tools, and Techniques for Learning the Craft (Heritage Crafts Today Series)
Book Review: Pressed flower art - good for beginners
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought and reviewed this book and returned it right away because I thought this book is good for beginners, people who've never done any flower pressing. I've done some and already knew what the book shows. I wanted to see more detailed explanations about how to do the whole procedure, from picking to applying the dry flower on a given surface. The book lacked some important details for someone who want to do more than just flower pressing/drying and frame it.
However, if you're new at this, this book will help you start.
